SUBJECT: MEDIA REACTION US CHIEF OF STAFF ANDREW CARD 
REPLACEMENT ISRAELI ELECTIONS ARGENTINE ANTI-MONEY 
LAUNDERING LEGISLATION 03/29/06 
 
 
1. SUMMARY STATEMENT 
 
Today's major international stories include US 
President Bush announcing the resignation of his chief 
of staff and his replacement with budget director 
Joshua Bolten; acting PM Ehud Olmert declaring victory 
in Israeli elections and their impact on the Middle 
East conflict; Argentine House of Representatives 
passing an amendment to the country's anti-money 
laundering legislation; and more than one million 
demonstrators pouring onto France's streets in the 
largest nationwide protest so far against a new labor 
law. 
 
Business-financial "El Cronista" carries a "Financial 
Times" reprint of an opinion piece by former US 
Secretary of State Madeleine Albright highlighting 
 
SIPDIS 
that "Common sense indicates that Washington should 
not support a change of regime in Iran because nothing 
favors a radical government more than open US 
antagonism." 
 
2. OPINION PIECES AND KEY STORIES 
 
- "Bush's chief of staff is replaced" 
 
Hugo Alconada Mon, Washington-based correspondent for 
daily-of-record "La Nacion," comments (03/29) "US 
President George W. Bush announced the resignation of 
an influential member of his administration during his 
second term in office. 
 
"Chief of Staff Andrew Card will be replaced by Budget 
Director Joshua Bolten. Analysts expect this will be 
the beginning of an expected overhaul at the White 
House. 
 
"... Last week, Bush said 'We have been an 
extraordinarily stable administration, and I think 
this is good for a nation' even when, according to all 
opinion polls, his popularity ratings are at their 
historically lowest point." 
 
- "The message" 
 
Paula Lugones, international columnist of leading 
"Clarin," writes (03/29) "The message seems to have 
been clear in Israel. Most people voted in favor of a 
solution to the conflict with the Palestinians, which 
suggests Israel's partial withdrawal from the West 
Bank and the creation of a Palestinian State. 
 
"It will likely be a unilateral Israeli solution that 
will not suit its neighbors, particularly now that 
Hamas is in power. However, both Kadima and the Labor 
Party have proposed to take steps to set limits on a 
region that no longer tolerates violence. 
 
"For their part, Israelis will insist on a social 
program from their next administration. This is why, 
Laborites, who focused on eradicating poverty during 
their campaign, will have an unexpected number of 
seats..." 
 
- "A new era marked by unilateralism" 
 
Elisabetta Pique, on special assignment in Jerusalem, 
comments (03/29) "If confirmed, yesterday's elections 
could mean the Israeli withdrawal from occupied 
territories and unilateralism as a method to face the 
eternal conflict with its Palestinian neighbors, plus 
a tired, divided and confused society that no longer 
believes in peace and much less in political leaders. 
 
"Many analysts believe that yesterday's elections have 
marked the beginning of a new era for Israel, and that 
it will be full of riddles and complex challenges, as 
usual. 
 
"... Hamas has warned that it considers unacceptable 
the Israeli plan of unilateral withdrawal from the 
West Bank, and that it would not represent a victory 
for the Palestinians but just the opposite. 
 
"In this framework, unilateralism, considered by 
Israelis to be an obvious solution for a permanent 
 
 
conflict and for their own security problems, could 
worsen an already complex situation and become a time 
bomb. Bearing in mind all this, the role to be played 
by the international community, and particularly by 
the US, will be crucial." 
 
- "Anti-money laundering legislation, requested by the 
US, is passed" 
 
Armando Vidal, columnist of leading "Clarin," writes 
(03/29) "The (Argentine) House of Representatives 
could pass a partial amendment to the country's anti- 
money laundering legislation. The US has insisted on 
providing this legislation with greater rigor in order 
to prevent international terrorist financing. 
 
"The congressional steps in the amendment will likely 
be accelerated due to the arrival of Egyptian Kader 
Asmal, head of the Financial Action Task Force. 
 
"... Other amendments are still pending approval. One 
is the labeling of terrorist financing and related 
money laundering as crimes."
