Rice Expects Cease-Fire This Week
 Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice said Monday that she believes she has achieved general agreement on terms to end almost three weeks of hostilities between Israel and Hezbollah and that she expects a cease-fire to take hold this week."This morning as I head back to Washington, ... Take along vacation Condi ... I take with me an emerging consensus on what is necessary for both an urgent cease-fire and a lasting settlement. I am convinced we can achieve both this week," Rice said at a small press conference for reporters traveling with her. No mention of returning the two kidnapped Israeli soldiers. Rest at link.
