Zinni's. I did try to find this -- I hadn't heard of either the original claim about Zinni's statement, or his "rebuttal" on NPR. I checked both a transcript and the audio archive of Zinni's interview on Friday's "Morning Edition", and he didn't mention Israel at all. You did say "today", so that's probably not the right interview, but I couldn't find anything else -- what show was it on? -- That's News To Me! newstome@comcast.net
