Prime Minister Sharon will be meeting with US President George Bush at the White House at 6 PM Israel time (11 AM local time). Sharon will present Bush with his vision of a Palestinian Authority without Yasser Arafat at the helm. While some in the Bush administration, including Secretary of State Colin Powell, feel that Arafat should remain in power, other top officials, including Vice President Dick Cheney and Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld say that Arafat must go. Bush has said repeatedly, including two days ago, that he has been disappointed with Arafat\'s leadership and that Arafat has let his people down. Sharon will also attempt to bolster those who are advising Bush not to declare support for a PLO state at this time.
