I'm not so sure there will be any major retalliation by the Pali's.

ricylc I don't understand where you are coming from with this. They are over there fighting now as we type and have been pratically all day.

Terrorist don't know when to quit. Life means nothing to them (theirs or anyone elses), they consider death while in the process of killing others as a reward.

I guess I'm trying to be positive. I'm sure they really want to attack, and I'm sure they are as angery as they have ever been.

However, I really think funding has become a problem for the Palistinians. There was a time when suicide bombers got not only spiritual support, but they knew their families would recieve financial rewards. With Saddam gone and pressure on elsewhere,(Europe scrutinizing Arafat's funding and the loss of Arafat's money line to Iran) I think it's tough for them to fund their terror campaign. The PA can't even make payroll anymore.

I know that Arafat has, several times in the last few weeks, called for all terror orginizations to punish Isreal for the assasination of one of his close aids, who happened to be the money go between to Iran. All that's come of it is they lobbed a few morters and the one suicide attack at the port a week or so ago.

That they got off that suicide attack is unfortunate, but I'm sure they have wanted to, and have been trying to do more. The reason they haven't been able to, I think, is a result of the lack of funds and serious disarray in Palestinian leadership. The killing of this genocidal maniac will throw their leadership in further disarray.

That's why I say I don't think you will see any big attack, not because they don't want to, but because they can't.

I agree that they consider dying a reward, but they also need funds to operate.

Like I said, time will tell, but I really hope I'm right.
