Sudden Bush Iraq strike could loom at borders
A rapid strike option could deploy 50 000 troops to Kuwait in a week with airlifted forces and ships through Hormuz. Saddam could be warned only days ahead and retaliate with chemical or biological weapons. Covert action and diplomacy are also pursued while officials weigh risks.

House approves gun carry for pilots in cockpits
The House passed a 310 to 113 bill to allow more than 70,000 pilots to carry guns in cockpits after training, rejecting a restricted pilot group. The White House and air lines opposed arming crews, while debate focused on aviation security post 9/11 and broader TSA action.

Senate approves penalties for corporate fraud and shredding
The Senate passed a tough set of penalties targeting corporate fraud and document shredding as part of an accounting oversight bill. The measures establish 10 year prison terms for securities fraud and protect whistle blowers, with CEOs and CFOs facing five to ten year terms and fines up to one million dollars. The move comes as the Dow Jones fell over 280 points, trading below 9000 following President Bush's call for corporate responsibility.
