The White House, seeking to take advantage of the diplomatic opening created by Yasser Arafat's death, is prepared to consider a British proposal that President Bush appoint a special Middle East envoy to shepherd the peace process, administration officials said yesterday.

I suggest we appoint Bill Clinton. Kill two birds with one stone. Handcuff Bill with this thankless task for a year or so and keep him from raising money for Hillary's campaign.

No. I don't want him to get nominated and won a Nobel prize for Peace by doing what Bush has arranged beforehand.

Ohh yeah, I forgot the other thing. Bush shows how "bi-partisan" he is with a completely meaningless gesture that the Dinosaur media will eat up.

Just as long as it isn't Jimmy Carter.

The Toon just wants attention, praise, and awards. Jimmuh wants to undermine this nation.

I disagree. Every time there have been peace negotiations with the Palestinians, Israel gets scr*wed. Arafat or no Arafat, I think the US and Britain should back off and only get involved if requested.

Israel knows that peace is its best interest and shouldn't be pressured into some agreement that could compromise the safety of its citizens. Let's not repeat the same mistakes over again.

YASSER ARAFAT ORDERED SIRHAN SIRHAN TO KILL ROBERT F. KENNEDY IN 1968 DUE TO HIS STRONG SUPPORT FOR ISRAEL, ON THE ANNIVERSARY OF THE 1967 WAR. LATER, WHEN THE U.S. REFUSED TO RELEASE SIRHAN, ARAFAT ORDERED THE BRUTAL SLAYINGS OF TWO U.S. DIPLOMATS IN KHARTOUM IN 1973.

ARE YOU GOING TO PREMIT YOUR GOVERNMENT TO SEND AN OFFICAL DIPLOMATIC DELEGATION TO THE FUNERAL OF A MAN WHO HAD A U.S. PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE AND U.S. DIPLOMATS MURDERED???

SPEAK OUT NOW, BEFORE THIS OUTRAGE TAKES PLACE!!!

WHITE HOUSE: 202-456-1111
BUSH: president@whitehouse.gov
SPEAKER HASTERT: 202-225-2976
SECRETARY POWELL: 202-647-4000

I think you misunderstand....Arafat's already buried; the article talks about an envoy to be involved in future peace talks.
