Full text of the diary:
It was announced that five gunmen attacked the Indian parliament in a suicide attack today, and seven people were killed in a clash with the police, in addition to the attacking guerrillas.
The Israeli army has launched extensive air and missile attacks against Palestinian centers. The Palestinian government has announced that [Yasser] Arafat, [the president of the Palestinian Authority], does not take any action for security at all, and that is why [Israel] has cut off all contact with him and the Israeli armed forces have advanced within 100 meters of Arafat's office, even though they said yesterday that Arafat is sincerely working to ensure security. The United States and the European Union have said they continue to recognize Arafat as the head of the Palestinian Authority.
U.S. commandos have been stationed at the headquarters of Mullah Omar in Kandahar, and the bombing of Tora Bora continues to hit bin Laden and his followers, and a U.S. bomber has been shot down in the Indian Ocean. There are sporadic conflicts between internal tribes in Afghanistan. Hamid Karzai, [the head of the interim government], has gone to Kabul.
In Belgium, today, on the occasion of the European Summit, a huge demonstration was held against globalization, and the United States announced that it had unilaterally withdrawn from the arms control treaty it had with Russia, and Russia declared it a threat to world peace, and this can be a pretext for the truth of Mr. Alishahi's claims.
