He was mentally ill. This is bound to turn the left against Arafat, is it not?

"Bashir Atari, 26, was sentenced to death in a one-day trial"
Yasser Arafat's (PLO) ONLY redeeming value.

A security official said the execution was coordinated with Israeli forces now controlling Ramallah. Israeli tanks surrounded the compound at the time. After the exucution took place the Palestinians and the Israeli's got together and shared locks and bagels before resuming their war with each other....Good Grief!
