This article focuses on prevailing political conditions in the U.S. and around the world, as of February 10, 1997. Political leader Yasir Arafat landed here on January 19, 1997 amid clouds of celebratory smoke the colors of the Palestinian flag marking the pad where his helicopter was to touch down. Gazillionaire right-winger Richard Mellon Scaife gives uncentered individuals like journalist Christopher Ruddy lots of money to make up stories for his two primary media outlets, The Pittsburgh Tribune-Review and the Western Journalism Center.
