Where oh where are the Arab Ghandis?? Nothing but terrorist threats... washingtonpost.com Danish Soccer Fed. Gets Bomb Threat The Associated Press Tuesday, April 16, 2002; 1:56 PM COPENHAGEN –– Denmark's Soccer Federation received a bomb threat against Wednesday's World Cup warmup game with Israel, already slated to be played amid tight security. A short anonymous letter received late Monday warned that "a huge explosion" would take place at the stadium if the Denmark-Israel match is played, federation spokesman Lars Berendt said. The letter, written in Danish, also stated that "both spectators and the Danish World Cup players will be in danger" and ended with the words "Free Palestine." Police and soccer officials said they were taking the threat seriously but pointed out that extra security measures already were in place with at least two major anti-Israel demonstrations scheduled in Copenhagen ahead of the game. "We see this as a threat and all bomb threats are always taken very seriously," police spokesman Flemming Steen Munch said Tuesday. "But it won't make us take any further security measures; we're already at the level needed." © 2002 The Associated Press

"American public opinion does not agree with your side, and the general weakness of your logic won't likely bring many over to your side." My side? What "side" is that? I am on the side of peace -- I think there is a tremendous desire for peace. If you believe there is equally tremendous American support for the Jewish settlements I believe you will find you are wrong and it will become increasingly obvious. I travel in many countries -- including ones that are predominantly Muslim. They have a different view of things to be sure -- but by and large they were prepared to cooperate with us in rooting out terrorism. Sharon has done what nobody else seemed able to do -- Sharon has managed to turn most of the world against us just when we need their support the most.
