waves over time. They then determine whether the man-made reef they have built is effective.
Bush disappointed that
Saddam is still in power
COLLEGE STATION, Texas (AP) — Former Pres
ident George Bush acknowledges he’s disap
pointed the United States is dealing with another
crisis involving Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein six
years after the Persian Gulf War.
“Some people ask me, ‘Why didn’t you go in
and get him?”’ Bush said at a news conference
Monday at the George Bush Presidential Library
and Museum in College Station.
“The job was to end the aggression, and we
did it,” he told the Bryan-College Station Eagle.
“But am I happy he’s there? No. He’s testing
us. He’s testing the United Nations,” Bush said
of Saddam, who provoked a standoff with the
United States by expelling American members of
the U.N. arms inspection team.
Pursuing Saddam after Iraq had been forced
out of Kuwait could have shattered the interna
tional coalition he assembled after Iraq’s 1990
invasion, Bush said.
The international coalition in 1991 included
some Arab states. But the United States has
had a more difficult time gaining Arab support for
military force in the current crisis involving U.N.
weapons inspections.
“I’d like to see them more on board,” Bush
said. “I don’t know the intricacies of thediplon
cy anymore so I don’t honestly know what has
transpired between the state department, the
White House, our Arab friends. But it is impor
tant that they be with us in this.”
Bush said he will support President Clinton
whatever he does to resolve the crisis.
“I would hope that he would be able toattrad
other nations to back us, to be with us In whaffiipson w|
er actions were necessary,” he said.
“When you’re dealing with the possibility of
producing weapons of mass destruction/it in-
volves the whole world, and we better be strong
and firm in making him comply with international
law,” he said.

Their name may
sound Ivy League,
but their facts
are strictly
bush league.
You’d think a test prep company could get its facts straight.
Too bad that’s not always the case with The Princeton Review.
The Princeton Review’s MCAT score improvement claims are so flimsy, the company
hasn't made its supporting "study'' public. And, of course, The Princeton Review has no
affiliation whatsoever with Princeton University, or any other university.
Ttie tact is, Kaplan works so well that more students have chosen our courses
than all other national test prep companies combined.
