Attack on Israel widens fear of regional war
Optimism over Saddam Hussein's early air strike response faded as Iraqi missiles hit Israel, raising fears of a broader war. At least 12 people were injured in Tel Aviv while antiwar protests surged across Europe, including 150,000 in Berlin. Three U.S. bank branches were lightly damaged in a Santiago suburb. Oil prices fluctuated after the attacks and global stocks rose in Asia on open trading.

Controversy Mounts as Antiwar Protests Turn Violent
Across the United States protests against the war turned volatile with police clashes, hundreds arrested, and disturbances at federal buildings. In San Francisco nearly 1,000 arrests occurred as demonstrators blocked streets near the Pacific Stock Exchange, prompting the police chief to warn of a historic crowd-control challenge. Ayman Silwany, a Palestinian American, was involved in a tense confrontation in Newark after taking citizenship. In Missoula a dozen demonstrators delayed a televised game by lying on the court, and in Sacramento protesters staged a peace sleep-in while others disrupted traffic. Continuous nationwide tension marked a third day of protests with broad political polarization reflected in a new ABC News Washington Post poll.
