JERUSALEM (Reuters) - A suspected Palestinian suicide bomber killed at least 11 other people when he blew himself up on a crowded commuter bus during the Thursday morning rush hour in Jerusalem, police and rescue workers said.

Hospital officials said children on their way to school were among more than 40 people wounded in the first major attack since Prime Minister Ariel Sharon called elections for January 28 after his coalition with center-left Labor collapsed.

Rescue workers said the bomber apparently set off his explosives at the front of the bus as it headed into town. END

Hamas has claimed responsibility for the latest bus bombing. The international community is shaking its head over this latest tragedy, which apparently consisted mainly of school children. With Israeli elections around the corner, many believe that this attack could swing the vote to hardliner Benjamin Netanyahu. If elected, Netanyahu has promised to exile Yasser Arafat and seek membership in the European Union. The Arab world is dead set against anyone other then Arafat being the leader of Palestine.

There is a second motive that maybe behind the bombings. The Arab world maybe turning up the pressure because they may feel that it could turn the elections to new opposition leader Amram Mitzna. Mitzna has promised, that if elected, his first priority will be to get Israel back to the negotiations table with the Palestinians.

I don't believe that this is going to happen. Although peace is imminent, it won't be brokered by an Israeli leader. Many believe that the eventual antichrist will be a Jew, but that is incorrect.

I would give you a prediction on the Israeli elections but the way things are going it's hard to say who will win. Prime Minister Ariel Sharon presently has a 10+ point lead over rival Benjamin Netanyahu. Of course, that could all change if the violence continues to escalate.

On the Iraqi situation, that is a war waiting to happen. Saddam Hussein continues to claim that he has no weapons of mass destruction and firing on U.S. and British planes enforcing the no-fly zone. NATO is also expanding to include ten new members. This organization was created for the sole purpose of combating the threat from the old Soviet Union (Russia). Russia is definitely still a threat and soon will prove it
