...coming out of Washington, it was because those messages evolved as Bush's overseas coalition was born and took its first steps--and then its first stumbles. The Bush team is settling into a patient, nuanced, two-front war in which humanitarian aid will be used to balm the anger of the Islamic world. As the U.S. gears up to wage war from as many as a dozen staging areas in Central Asia, it is also working on four other continents to mount a coalition to isolate the terrorists politically and economically...
...whose ear for the right political move is unrivaled. "It's getting incredible coverage." When King Abdullah of Jordan paid a visit to the White House late last month, he privately commended the mosque visit, hinting that similar events would help Arab allies keep a lid on anti-American anger. Around the same time, Bush met with Islamic leaders in the White House.

After the first few weeks of quiet, the city's crisis hotlines are blistered with calls and there are no beds available...
...statement condemning the Sept. 11 attacks but expressing concern that the air raids on Afghanistan could lead to further suffering by innocents. And also warning the U.S. against extending its fight to Iraq. Most Arab moderate regimes are tolerating peaceful anti-American demonstrations as an outlet for popular anger. But the longer the U.S. campaign persists, the deeper the discomfort of its Arab allies. And if Palestinian radicals choose to challenge Arafat by escalating attacks on Israel and Israel retaliates with a heavy hand, Arab regimes may find their alliance with Washington being fiercely challenged...
