There are too many ru­ mors surrounding the issue of withdrawing Israeli and Syrian troops; so many that It appears the negotiations will get bogged down during a time when a quick solution Is needed before all-out warfare breaks out again. Kaimin editorial This much Is known: on Monday, Syria warned of a wide-scale war with Israel and rejected the pullout plan which has taken Secretary of State George Schultz al­ most six months to arrange. The plan calls for withdraw­ ing Israeli forces only If Syrian and Palestinian forces also withdraw. It also calls for Israeli and Lebanese patrols in Lebanon. In the meantime, Syria says it won't accept the plan without settling issues so complex they would take months to overcome. Exactly what those differences are appear to be speculation. Also, Syrian Foreign Minister Abdul Halim Khaddam sounded vague when he said his country "ex­ pects the Soviet Union to fulfill its commitments toward Syria which are embodied In the friendship agreement” if war broke out. Does this mean just weaponry or actual troop commitments? Now western diplomats are assuming what the Syri­ ans want. They expect the country will demand safe pas­ sage of its troops from Israeli patrols through the Bekaa Valley which leads to the Syrian border and also assur­ ances that the Lebanese won't take an anti-Syrian line.

The Cayos Cochinos Natural Monument is an important and protected part of the Meso-American barrier reef and the world’s second largest barrier reef system, which has been identified by the Smithsonian Institute, The Nature Conservancy, the Word Wildlife Fund and the World Bank as one of the key sections of the barrier reef system to preserve. In 2004 the first management plan was published and new zoning and connected regulations were approved. This was updated by the 2008 - 2012 management plan, which was also based on the important monitoring findings provided by these joint Biosphere Expeditions and Honduras Coral Reef Fund expeditions. This report summarises the findings of the third survey of this long-term monitoring programme, which was conducted from 1 - 27 March 2009.
