Palestinian President Yasser Arafat said yesterday he now accepts the peace plan put forward 18 months ago by President Clinton

It is odd how the Palestinians always miss the train. Punctuality simply isn't their strong suit.

Arafat et al never fail to miss an opportunity, as former Sec. of State, James Baker III would say.

A better plan:

1.Move U.S. Embassy to Jerusalem.

2.Reclaim the West Bank and Gaza strip.

3.Remove Arafat and his cohorts.

4.Pound into oblivion anyone who attacks Israel.

5. Let the Arab nations take their brothers, the palis back, which is where they camy from in the first place.

You can't change your mind after you decided it wasn't good enough for you. So Arafart's going to end up with less now than he would have originally gotten two years ago? Tough luck.

Precisely. The fact that Ehud Barak, Clinton puppet extraorindaire, came within an inch of giving away the store is the reason why the Labor Party will be out of power for some time to come.

Right now the Israeli Left is in the trough of public opinion with 15% in the polls. It'll take more than quite awhile for it to come back to power.

I am amazed that rule 308 hasn't silenced this pig yet. Yeshisarsisfat holds the Middle East by the Palestinian balls ... that the impotent Pali's don't reven know it, so they continue to send their children into HELL via suicide murders!

You're right about that.
