In every praise of Arafat there is an implied condemnation of Israel.

Israel is now entering a very dangerous period, not only from terrorism, but from the international community of leftists.

Israel is now entering a very dangerous period, not only from terrorism, but from the international community of leftists.

They are also in danger from the Jews who live in Israel and actually believe they can negotiate with Muslims for a peaceful solution. - Tom

Chirac, who had visited Arafat days before his death, called him a "man of courage and conviction who, for 40 years, has incarnated the Palestinians' combat for recognition of their national rights."

I have to wonder what we will hear at the upcoming trial of that great champion of Palistinians, Saddam. Osama has also begun the rehabilitation process in the "world's" opinion. When BBC speaks of Falluga now, it is painfully clear upon which side they have their sympathy. They are "rebels" opposed to the "occupation forces". It is easier to understand an anti-colonial feeling sympathy with the terrorists than it is the European left.
