What Made U.S. Warship Return to

Mediterranean?
The Lebanese daily As-Safir, which is close to the opposition, questioned on Monday whether the return of the warship would not encourage the government in its showdown with Hizbullah.
It said Prime Minister Fouad Saniora was expected to formally annul his government's controversial decisions against Hizbullah on Monday, "unless the return of the USS Cole is an occasion for the ruling bloc to once again adopt wrong decisions that would bring the situation back to square one or worse."

The U.S. warship, which was deployed off Lebanon in February amid concern over Lebanon's political crisis, crossed Egypt's Suez Canal on Sunday on its way to the Mediterranean, an official with the canal authority told AFP.(Naharnet-AFP)
