PROBLEM: ''If  Orrin Hatch  came in third place in the Iowa caucuses  that would be bigger news that George Bush winning '' said James Camp  Mr. Hatch's national political director. ''The headlines would not be that Bush wins  but that  Hatch  takes third.''
 Even Mr. Hatch  said  his  goal was to ''do fourth or better.''
To that end  the Hatch campaign is heavily depending on local newspaper interviews and small-town radio call-in and television talk shows to spread  his  word  since there is no cost.
Speaking  talk-show style  on the same level as the audience rather than from the stage  Mr. Hatch attacked his opponents. ''How many of those people have the experience  yes  the knowledge and the ability to work with Congress and really fulfill all those campaign promises?'' Mr. Hatch asked. ''I understand Congress to the last person. I passed 43 bills in the last Congress. Sure  I can't get everything passed  but  Orrin Hatch  will die trying.''
 He  also said the Democrats in the race  Vice President Al Gore and former Senator Bill Bradley  were ''far left  and you better understand that.''
It was difficult to tell if  Mr. Hatch  won any converts. Jack Croft said that while he liked what  Mr. Hatch  said on ''our need for more military readiness ''  he  was not swayed enough to vote for  him .
David Holzinger  who said  he  was trying to decide between  Mr. Hatch  and Mr. Forbes  said: ''I came because  he 's a giant in the Senate. I like what  he  said on the ethics of the Clinton administration.''

SOLUTION: Orrin Hatch

PROBLEM: The book begins in an unnamed Syrian city with  a teenage boy  Tareq  surrounded by his bustling  tight-knit family . It details  Tareq 's excruciating journey  leaving behind people and places  he  loves  almost from the very moment a bomb hits  his  family's home.
On the day that  Tareq 's home is struck by a bomb 
Tareq  was having a normal day with  his  family.  His  mom was cooking in the kitchen   his  grandmother was enjoying a small glass of tea   his  little brothers and sisters were playing and watching TV — just the typical day in their lives. And that typical day is destroyed by an airstrike.  He 's sent to the hospital where  he  does get some good news that  his  little sister is alive. But then a doctor takes  him  to a room and  he  sees  his  two 6-month-old little brothers dead on a gurney. And it seems very dark  but it's a situation that happens all the time  and really it's based on real characters  including those twins. I've seen pictures of the twins laying on the gurney  and it's the sad truth.
And for  Tareq   the character in my book   he  goes to Turkey.  He 's a second-class citizen there.  He 's going to go to Europe.  He 's going to be a second-class citizen there. There are people who don't want  him . There are people who fear  him   despite  him  being the one who's really afraid.

SOLUTION: Tareq

PROBLEM: The target   Mohamed Hamdan   was not a publicly known Hamas figure in Lebanon. A statement from Hamas  the Islamist group that controls Gaza  confirmed  he  was a member of the group  without detailing  his  role  and said âinitial indicationsâ suggested Israel was behind the bombing.
Al-Manar television  run by the Lebanese political and military group Hezbollah  described  Hamdan  as an important figure in Hamas  adding that  he  appeared to have a security role and was being tracked by Israel.

 Hamdan  was âslightly woundedâ in the attack  a Hamas official in Sidon  Ayman Shanaa  told the Palestinian television station Paltoday.

SOLUTION:
Mohamed Hamdan
