Subject: NIGHTLINE: War in the Middle East, Politics at Home
> TONIGHT'S SUBJECT: Secretary Powell takes his efforts to Syria and
> Lebanon today, a key aide to Arafat has been arrested, thousands are
> expected to demonstrate in support of Israel in Washington today.
> Meanwhile, there's a new bi Laden tape out, four American servicemen were
> killed in an accident in Afghanistan today, and U.S. warplanes bombed a
> site in Iraq. And it's only Monday.

> If we needed a reminder that the war on terrorism goes on, in spite of the
> focus on the Middle East, four American servicemen involved in disposal of
> old munitions were killed in an apparent accident. Several more were
> wounded. But there were also a couple of small firefights over the
> weekend. It's still dangerous over there. And the al-Jazeera network aired
> a short piece of a new bin Laden tape and a tape made by one of the
> hijackers, obviously before September 11th. When I say "new" bin Laden
> tape, I mean one that we haven't seen before. Many people seem to think
> that it was made some time ago, given that he and one of his aides are
> wearing lighter clothes, certainly not winter clothing, and he looks
> better physically that he did in the last tape we saw. On the Iraq front,
> U.S. warplanes bombed an anti-aircraft ste, something that happens fairly
> often.
>
> All of that is going on while the crisis in the Middle East continues with
> no solution in sight. Powell has gone to Lebanon and Syria to try to head
> off a military escalation on Israel's northern border, where guerillas
> supported by Syria and Iran have been trading fire with the Israeli army.
> Powell will return to Jerusalem tonight, and is expected to meet with
> Sharon and Arafat one last time before leaving. But there is no cease
> fire. Dave Marash and producer Gerry Holmes got into the town of Nablus
> today, where they have been able to see the aftermath of the military
> incursion there. The Israeli army has allowed a couple of journalists on
> supervised trips into the town of Jenin, site of the worst fighting, and
> we'll have that footage as well. And in a major development, Marwan
> Barghouthi, a leader of Arafat's Fatah movement and a man sometimes
> thought to be Arafat's successor, has been arrested in the West Bank by a
> special Israeli army unit.
>
> Here in Washington, there is a large pro-Israel demonstration scheduled
> for today. This follows both pro-Israel and pro-Palestinian demonstrations
> in New York in the last week or so, and a number of demonstrations at
> college campuses all over the country. In the past we have reported on the
> impact on the Bush administration on opinion in Europe and the Arab world,
> today we want to take a look at the domestic politics. Bush is being
> criticized by his allies on the right for what is being termed a "double
> standard," for having laid out a doctrine of not dealing with terrorists,
> but then keeping Arafat in the peace process, such as it is. He is also
> being criticized by many Democrats for the same thing. At the same time,
> the pro-Israel and pro-Palestinian lobbies are weighing in as well. John
> Donvan will report on all of this for tonight.
>
> Ted will be anchoring tonight and will be interviewing Newt Gingrich about
> the domestic politics issue. We probably won't be spending a lot of time
> on bin Laden and the events in Afghanistan tonight, but there's a lot of
> news today, and we're still trying to figure out how to squeeze as much of
> this as possible into tonight's broadcast.
