#1 "It will be solved, and this type of behavior will not be allowed," he said.

The fact that they haven't made any substantial attempts to crack down on Al-Aqsa and Hamas says otherwise.

#2 Several hours later, however, Zubeydi said he released Irsheid after a call from an unidentified official at Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat's office. Al Aqsa is loosely affiliated with Arafat's Fatah movement. "For me, Arafat's order is not up for negotiation," Zubeydi told The Associated Press. "So I released him immediately."

Bingo. The smoking gun tying Al Aqsa operational parameters to Arafat himself. How many have been accused of being an Israeli collaborator and living to tell the tale? I think this guy is the first.

#4 'Why does much of the world see them as the "good guys".?'
* Because some men long to submit to something greater than themselves. No matter how much freedom you give them, they are still slaves in their hearts. Liberty will never have meaning to them. Instead they spend their lives waiting for a leader to tell them to do the things that they haven't the willpower to do themselves.
* Others love evil, but are too cowardly to become evildoers themselves. Instead they root from the sidelines, living vicariously through others' black deeds.
* The rest are quislings. So compromised are they by their amorality, they would ally themselves with Osama bin Laden to save the rainforests or with Saddam Hussein to destroy capitalism.
