COVER: WILL IT BE WAR? Cover: Photo by Dennis Brack--Pool.

WILL IT BE WAR IN THE MIDDLE EAST? Both Saddam Hussein and George Bush raised the stakes last week in a confrontation that seemed to be moving closer by the day to war. As Iraq's threats to round up American citizens raised the specter of a new hostage crisis, U.S. forces continued to mass in Saudi Arabia and to lay plans for rescue missions. The danger of massive civilian casualties, the hardships of fighting in the desert and the potential for igniting Arab anti-Americanism all made Washington hope that diplomacy and an economic blockade could still make Saddam back down. But if they don't, America was getting poised to strike. Special Report: Page 18.

A NEW LINE AGAINST CRIME: Cops want to be the good guys on the block again. Across the country, police are fighting crime by bonding with the community: they drive old ladies to the grocery store, go into homes to teach security measures--and even walk foot beats. "Instead of issuing summonses," says a New York cop, "we look for solutions." National Affairs: Page 36.

A GENERATION OF COUCH POTATOES: Their parents may be aerobicized to the gills, but an alarming number of today's grade-school kids are obese or inactive and showing signs of high blood pressure or elevated cholesterol levels. The Bush administration's response to the problem can be summed up in two words: Arnold Schwarzenegger. Lifestyle: Page 62.
