Prime Minister Sharon will be meeting with CIA Director George Tenet this evening. Tenet has been meeting with Arab leaders in the region to discuss his Palestinian Authority reformation plan. Analysts believe that Sharon will tell Tenet that reforms in the PA are meaningless as long as Yasser Arafat remains in the picture.



Sharon met with European Union International Policy Chief Javier Solana, last night. Solana is pushing for a Middle East regional peace conference in the near future, with the inclusion of Israel. US Undersecretary of State William Burns is still in the region shuttling between Israeli and Arab leaders.
