Road Map Monitors' Arrival Delayed by Continued Terror
(Jerusalem Post) - Herb Keinon and Janine Zacharia According to a senior official, Israel told Washington that this is not the right time to send a road map monitoring team. The team, to be headed by U.S. envoy Richard Erdman, was expected to arrive in Israel following Secretary of State Colin Powell's visit last week. "We don't need monitors when there is nothing to monitor," the official said. As a result, the team's arrival has been delayed. Prime Minister Sharon has made it clear that he does not think there is any need for the team to arrive until Abu Mazen begins taking action against the terrorist infrastructure, officials said.
