IRAQ/PAKISTANI ELECTIONS





Now that Congress has given President Bush permission to go it alone in 
deciding to introduce military action in Iraq, the administration would be 
very wise to consider the results of the election in Pakistan yesterday.  
They do not exactly bode well for Mideast reaction to non U.N. sanctioned 
action.  I think Bush, Rumsfeld, et al seriously underestimate the powder 
keg they would ignite by putting on their cowboy hats and charging in with 
six guns blasting.  To try to compare this with the Cuban missile crisis is 
a stretch.
