Middle East facing three civil wars, Jordan's King says
Jordan's King Abdullah is warning that the Middle East could soon be engulfed in violence, saying three separate civil wars may be about to erupt in the region, including in Iraq.
King Abdullah says there could be civil wars brewing in Iraq, the Palestinian territories and Lebanon.
"The United States has now spent as long in Iraq as it spent fighting World War II," he said.
Senior Republicans are saying Mr Bush will get tough with the Iraqis at this week's summit.
[A classified US Government document obtained by the New York Times says Iraq's insurgents are now financially self-sufficient, raising more than $100 million a year from kidnap ransoms, smuggling and counterfeiting.]
