Vice President Dick Cheney said on Sunday he was unlikely to meet with Yasser Arafat before this week's Arab League summit in Beirut, which he said the Palestinian leader should attend. Cheney, who refused to see Arafat during a 10-day trip to the Middle East that ended last Wednesday, did not rule out a meeting in the future, but said Arafat had not yet done enough to halt Palestinian attacks against Israel. "I will not hold the meeting unless we see those circumstances that we specified," Cheney said on NBC's "Meet the Press." "To date we haven't seen them. But if we do, then I'm prepared to go forward with the meeting."
