<h3>Lebanese daily: U.S. has already decided to attack Iraq </h3>
By Daniel Sobelman, Ha'aretz Correspondent

CIA Director George Tenet told Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak during their meeting Saturday in Sharm el Sheikh that the United States has already decided to attack Iraq, the Lebanese newspaper Al-Mustaqbal reported Sunday.

According to a source with knowledge of the Tenet-Mubarak talks, the Beirut daily reported that the U.S. intelligence chief asked that Egypt not publicly express opposition to an attack on Iraq.

Mubarak warned Tenet of the repercussions from an American attack on Iraq. According to the Egyptian president, the attack would endanger stability in the entire Middle East.

It was also reported that Tenet suggested the idea that Prime Minister Ariel Sharon and Palestinian Authority Chairman Yasser Arafat be brought together for a meeting at Sharm al-Sheikh where the two leaders would declare an end to the violence and a renewal of security coordination between the two sides.

According to the report, Mubarak had reservations about the idea and said that first Israel needed to allow Arafat to leave Ramallah so he could attend the Arab summit in Beirut at the end of next month.

The daily also reported that Syrian President Bashar Asad will soon arrive in Egypt for a summit with Mubarak. It specified that they would discuss developments in regard to the Palestinians and Iraq.
