Ramadan gives Iraq time to hide weapons
General Anthony Zinni, commander of U.S. forces in the Persian Gulf, warned Ramadan could allow Iraq to conceal chemical and biological weapons from UNSCOM inspectors. He said Iraq may use the lull during the holy month to hide or move material, complicating inspections and risking a delayed response. Zinni stressed Ramadan likely freezes Iraqi military activity and reduces chances of U.S. action during the period. He leads U.S. Central Command, overseeing Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, and other Gulf states.

House leader calls for resignation of Clinton aide
Senior Republican Rep Bill Archer demanded Clinton fire the aide who headed the White House health care task force. Archer also urged the president not to bill taxpayers for a 285,864 penalty levied by U S District Judge Royce C Lamberth for providing dishonest information to keep the task force away from public view chaired by Ira Magaziner. The judge found a false affidavit by Magaziner to shield the task force from scrutiny. A White House spokesman said Clinton would respond early in the week.
