I do suggest that Israel is not showing any sensitivity to the issue, to the extent that I can see. Try thinking about what any other country would have done in response to Arafat's terrorist war, or what the casualty rate might be by now. Hint: check out the wars in Chechnya, Algeria or Sri Lanka for clues.

Zonder, here is a good one for you... In the last thirty years, I didn't spent more than one hundred hours in Monaco, nor drove there more than five hours. However I was "arrested while driving" three times, brought to the police station twice, and on one occasion, was locked in for half a night (four hours), because of a missing car paper and nine thousand Francs in cash, no gambling or anything else involved. So after being profiled (while a pure Frenchmen and permanent resident), I had to tell (to corroborate) the story of my youth or face two more days in the cell. During all those many same years, the French police never asked me a single question, nor harassed me in any way; the youth problems I had were with an Arab gov, fifteen years before. (I am able and ready to provide you two phone N°, located very close by to you, that will witness to this statement upon simple request.) So, are you willing to do something for Monaco to be more democratic or have some law like "Informatique et Liberté? It's badly needed, IMO. Of course that will give Sharon a free hand. For a while... Epstein@ goaheadFLshoutatmeagain.democracyforall!
