Looks like Israel is taking good advantage of the current preoccupation with india/pakistan. Maybe they should go and clean out the gaza pit while they're at it.

Mr Arafat and his advisers will be acutely aware that the case is highly sensitive. The bulk of Palestinians regard the PFLP leader and his associates as heroes of their resistance against the Israeli occupation, which began with the 1967 war that started 35 years ago today. Many Palestinians were full of contempt when Mr Arafat agreed to allow them to be jailed – their Palestinian guards watched by British and Americans wardens – in return for his own freedom.

Mr. Reeves needs a history lesson. The PLO was founded in 1964 and Feyadeen attacked Israel uin the 1950's. Teh Arabs consider all of Israel occupied.
