#6 declining health?

There has been a doctor within shouting distance for at least the last year or so as I undrestand it, Shailet de Medici6224, with several sudden and extended hospitalizations later attributed to a bad cold or some such.

Cute, Frank G. I still want to know what happened to Yasser Arafat’s red binder

#7 In Antifragile, Taleb wrote something along the lines of "If you want to accelerate someone’s death, give him a personal doctor."

#8 I suspect the violence will be a result of competing parties looking for influence and power. I'd like to see some analysis about who(m) will be taking control of the PA? What will Hamas do? Will the IDF take the opportunity to cull off some of the leadership? What are the Americans doing behind the scenes?

#11 I'd like to see some analysis about who(m) will be taking control of the PA?

It will be a fight between the radical Jew-haters and the even more radical Jew-haters.

What will Hamas do?

Blame Israel and try to kill Jews.
