#1 It was news to me, but not really a surprise.

#2 There is a broader meaning here. In a nut shell. Arafat is going to be shown the exit door.one way or the other.

This long over due FBI probe lays the ground work and informs the public just prior to Yassir being removed.

#4 Mark, I think I see what you're saying. With the possibility/probablity of being shown to have American blood on his hands, very few politicians other than John Conyers will make a peep while he is removed.

#5 But how can this be?
He has won the Nobel peace prize, been welcomed at the White House, applauded at the UN, feted by the Euro and American illuminati.
Surely this man can't be a murdering terrorist scumbag.

The problem is, who's going to remove him? The Palestinians themselves aren't likely to do it.

Super Hose, I feel an official American foundation is being laid to remove the mask Arafat has been allowed to keep on by the majority of nations, thus... remove Arafat, the ongoing, historic terrorist instigating cancer Israel has been forced into dealing with since the late 1960's.

Once Yassir is shown the exit door, however that transpires, what remains? Hamas gangs of death cult killers along with other fanatical Muslim factions which could conceivable devolve into an inter-(Pal) Arab civil war, in effect being fought between the various power hungry jihadist groups, all battling each other for absolute control, of what, is the question. A policy of divide a crush would ensue.

This could evolve as the best possible solution to the deadly terrorist problem Israel and other regions are confronted with by many of these 'Pal' Arab Islamists exporting themselves into the middle of other 'jihads' such as currently taking place against our men in Iraq & Afghanistan, plus the unstable situations in the southern Balkans, Kashmir, and the ever-expanding chaos within the greater Caucuses.

#13 Mark, the only problem with your scenario is that it's like giving a moron a 9mm and hoping he'll cap himself. Sure, he just might do it, but it's also likely that others will get snuffed too.

I would dearly love to see the Palestinian death culture take it in the shorts. But I also know that more than a few Israelis are going to get caught in the riptide. They just cannot build that wall fast enough. Too bad there's not a (non-nuclear) way to simply exterminate these violent turds.

#14 I understand your points. We should recall the 'Pal' Arab Islamic terrorist gangs have already demonstrated their willingness to slaughter each other over the Arafat political power position over the last few months.

Once Yassir is gone and the inevitable power vacuum displays itself, the various Arab terrorist infrastructure will, as we have previously seen, turn on each other, it's the true nature of such blood thirsty gangs.

In relation to Israel's national anti-terrorist barriers being constructed as rapidly as possible, the sooner the jihadists are prevented from exterminating Jews via bus bombings along with other forms of high-kill-ratio acts of terrorism, they will attack each other for pure power. We, coupled with the Israelis must not only encourage inter-Islamist fighting, and by removing the principal 'Pal' Arab rallying point in Arafat, it furthers the goal, since if the terrorists revert to a fierce battle amongst themselves, not only do they self-diminish as terrorist threat, but Israelis , plus other potential innocent victims are hopefully spared from additional attacks through the thining of their numbers to focus on Israel or export, and make indepth elavberate or plan .

There could also emerge a voice of reason from within the Arabs, so sickened by the jihadists murdering each other and innocents in the process. Due to the fear factor held over the heads of non-jihadist Arabism, this option should not be viewed as viable at this stage.

I am aware some of this is theory bit in part has a;ready been proven as fact by recent examples. The same theory could function in the Lebanon and else where different view points exist among the most radical of the jihadists.

#15 An idea for the Palestinians-

Try a new approach-one without the regular cast of characters. The US, one of the partners in the 4-party Peace plan, recognizes that Arafat is not a worthy representative for negotiations, and understands there is no such thing as a "political wing" of a terrorist group.

You can change your lives for the better by changing your will. What is it you want? Peace and some land, or anihilation of Israel? YOUR CHOICE IS YOUR VOTE-YOU GET ONE. You need to understand that the consequences of your choice is better lives or an eternal blender of flesh.

You complain the US has been disinterested in your plight? Palestine, you have not kept your part of the bargain in the 4-party Peace Plan. Your most ardent defenders say it is because Palestinian terrorists CANNOT be controlled. What if YOU, the Palestinians, took up the cause of love of your own lives and demanded a leader who would snuff out the intifada? What if you abandoned your hypnotic love of a suicide bombers and terrorists posing as politicians-the ones that always promise you a Palestine state and always deliver back-to-back funerals? What if you determined who deserved to be called a leader-you've lived among the people in your communities your whole lives-none of us have. If you actually chose a leader who would LEAD TOWARD PEACE, do you think you might have a better chance in this world? Would it be easier to envision a day when your people, to the last man, sees your contribution toward peace restorative to your self respect, and the best proof of your love for your children, your families?
