Israel made it clear in 1957 when the withdrew from the Sinai after their brilliant capture of it, that the only way they would exit from the Sinai is if there would always be UN troops stationed there. Tell me that the ordering out of UN troops from Sinai is not an act of war. -- Eli Posner {allegra,ihnp4,linus,decvax}!utzoo!utcsstat!rao
