JERUSALEM -- Saudi Crown Prince Abdullah will not present a new Mideast peace proposal at an Arab summit this month unless Israel lifts travel restrictions on Yasser Arafat and allows him to attend, a senior Palestinian official said Monday.

"Prince Abdullah informed me that he would not present his ideas to the Arab summit if President Arafat didn't participate in it," Palestinian Planning Minister Nabil Shaath told The Associated Press by phone from Jiddah, Saudi Arabia, a day after meeting Abdullah.

The Israelis can bring Arafat fair enough... in a bodybag wrapped in the skin of a pigh sounds good to me.

I sh!t in the Saudis' throats.

This getting beyond the ridiculous, with a bunch of oil sheik retards in control of the social engineering of the Middle East, encroaching on the jurisdiction of Israel and Jews. This is a snake pit of death for Israel.

I did not think we would go this low to have a bunch of Saudi Apes take the leadership of the fate of the Jewish people and God in the middle East. This is beyond the Clinton legacy in ridicule.

Sounds like blackmail to me...but when all the Palestinain terror groups have rejected the Saudi proposal because it doesn't give the Pals Israel to the "pre-1948 borders," this is just a bunch of bull. It may play well with all the fools in MSNBC and CNN, but freepers can cut through the feces and see this for what it is: bovine dung.

But hey, let Arafat go to the Arab League. Don't let him come back. Let the Saudis take him home instead, along with his terrorist buddies.

Now that is an Idea. "I'm Sorry Mr Arafat, but your visa has been declined. Please purchase a return ticket immediately."

They are the worst. Utter morons. The worst. They hate the Pallies and won't allow them in as guest workers anymore.

No one would give a crap about them if they didn't have oil underground. I pray everyday that some form of cold fusion pans out and makes these demons irrelevant.
