  The role of inelastic final state interactions in CP asymmetries is
investigated in single isospin two-body hadronic decays of the B meson. We
demonstrate that in a channel where the CP asymmetry vanishes in absence of
inelastic final state interactions, a coupling to a second channel where the
asymmetry is nonvanishing can result in an asymmetry in the first channel of
the same order as in the second.
