WASHINGTON — Part-
ing of the waters, this time
between Israel and Jordan,
is an issue in the Middle
East this week.
Retired U.S. diplomat
Philip Habib, a State De-
partment troubleshooter, is
in the Mideast to negotiate
a key agreement between
Israel and Jordan on how to
divide the waters of the
Yarmuk River, which flows
from Jordan into Israel.
According to Newsweek,
the Jordanians want to dam
the river for irrigation,
leaving little for Israel's
use.
Our best thoughts come
from others.
