Will Colon Powell now admit that Arafat is a terrorist? Or will he keep clinging to the lie that he is not?

Neither he nor Bush will admit that. The Israelis will agree to bury this evidence in return for something they badly want. Perhaps the aid Bush is holding up, or the purchase of some technology or something.

Perhaps the evidence will surface again once Bush has ok'd a replacement for Arafat. If Bush intended to replace him now, he would simply have leaked the details of Arafat's murder of our ambassador. (Yes, I know it was in the press, but you didn't see any TV coverage of it, did you? Nothing is really news any more unless it is covered by the networks.)

Arafat murdered our ambassador? links please.....

Bush is not in a position to 'ok a replacement' for Arafat. Please believe me when I say that Arafat is as much under Bush's control as Saddam.

The only way this ends is for one side to win (a bit like the last set in a tennis match).
