Peres outlines plan for Palestinian state creation
Foreign Minister Shimon Peres presented a peace plan negotiated with Palestinian speaker Ahmed Abu Ala that calls for a cease fire followed by the creation of a Palestinian state. The plan emerged after months of discreet talks aimed at reducing violence and rhetoric. Palestinians fired a Qassam-2 rocket toward a West Bank settlement, missing, marking a first such attempt in the area.

CIA Used Spy Planes Before Attack in Afghanistan
Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld said the CIA secretly ran pilotless Predator planes over Afghanistan well before the U S military arrived last October to intensify the hunt for Osama bin Laden. He noted the CIA is now flying armed Predators outside the military chain of command. The Feb 4 strike targeted suspected al Qaida members, drawing questions from Afghan villagers who said the dead were innocents. Franks' command is reviewing those claims as CIA officials defend the operation.
