Sharon Postpones US Trip

[Ed note: Sharon visits the US so often, he really ought to rent a place in Dupont Circle or Ambassadors Row.]

Israeli PM Ariel Sharon has postponed a second planned trip to DC in as many months while he reorganizes a pull-out plan from occupied territories. As you'll remember, Bush said yes to everything he said last trip, then Bush seemed to back off a little when Abdullah was here, and probably would agree to all of Sharon's requests again when next he comes. It's like a tennis match, except that real live human beings are dying on each side.
