You must really dislike the Arab states and Arafat then. No free press, no free elections, women treated like dogs, in Arafat's case 'traitors' lynched in the public square, (in front of children), despots and dictators (Arafat is a Marxist by the way) galore...

Yes, as a matter of fact! I'd like to see all the corrupt autocratic Arab regimes, all the Kings and Sheiks and Presidents-for-life overthrown and replaced by governments more responsive to the people. Israel proper deserves credit for being a western-style democracy. However, the Israeli occupation is a form of tyranny, the opposite of democracy.

And if the "occuption" was ended what would happen? Answer--The creation of a terrorist state where autocrat Arafat offers NONE of the liberty and justice you claim to be in favor of.

Your very questionable cited tyranny versus a very evil and malignant one.

Bottom line under yours and the seruvniks way there would be Less justice, less liberty and less safety for the civilized world.

Please excuse me if I am not rushing to join the apparatchiks... er, I mean seruvniks on this one.
