Don't look now but the geopolitical sitation is heating up again...
Troubles in Nigeria...are mounting. The Muslim cartoon flap is still around.
Osama is talking again... And Israel has taken a very shrill tone with the new government of the Palestinians...
My hunch is that the geopolitical situation will be back on page one soon.
The administration is impotent and confused...few people know who talks for Dubya and if they do, who'se making any sense.
The Palestinians seem to be making a play for world opinion that will be hard to rebuff now that Hamas is "respectable."
Things were just a lot easier in Israel before Sharon's stroke and before Hamas went legit...
There seems to be a paradigm shift in the works...but for the better or for the worse is really the question.
The "happy scenario" would require major diplomacy from Washington which they don't seem to be up to these days.
And Israel is going to have to settledown the saber rattling and cut out the hyterical talk...which no one seems to be buying into anymore about the Palestinains.
