RAMALLAH, West Bank (CNN) -- Israeli forces have destroyed all buildings in Yasser Arafat's Ramallah compound that immediately surround the Palestinian leader's main office.
On Friday, the day after a deadly suicide bomb attack in Tel Aviv, Israel Defense Forces continued to occupy the West Bank compound and were looking to arrest Palestinians they have labeled as terrorists. Arafat was unharmed, Palestinian officials said, and Israeli officials said he was not a target.

"No one is going to kill Arafat" said Alon Pinkas, Israel's consul general in New York.
Um, why not?

It's time to fish or cut bait... IDF should go in and physically deport his Arab @ss to Peru.

The more I think about it, the better I like it. Eventually the Pali's might do the job - kill Arafat - themselves.

Sounds like there's not much left of Yasser's compound besides his office.

Who has the longer life expectancy?
Arafat or Saddam?
Yassir should see what's coming and run up the white flag now.
What a difference 5 months makes.
Where are the peace activists now?
Not a peep out of the Europeans who are catatonic over Iraq!!

Sounds like urban renewal to me.

Good idea..since Janet's not doing anything these days...send her over there and tell her Arafart's a Christian.

It's time to fish or cut bait... IDF should go in and physically deport his Arab @ss to Peru. Now why would we want them to do that to a friendly country like Peru? I say send him to Iraq.

Israeli forces were also active overnight in the Sajaiyeh neighborhood of Gaza City Attacks on Arafat's compound are ready-made camera magnets. How better to direct attention from something else.
The operations in Gaza City are probably more important to the IDF.
And the ones we're not hearing about at all are probably most important of all.

Good deal! Arafat supports terror (pretends he doesn't) and look what happens. Israel has a good strategy in my opinion. If you kill yourself in a suicide/murder bombing, your remaining family will have their home bulldozed....If you hide anyone on the wanted list, that place where they were being hidden is bulldozed, if you support the terror in any way, your home/shelter is bulldozed. HMMMM..pretty soon it would seem the terrorists would have no where to go and no one would want to harbor them. Now if you only get rid of the regimes that reward terror...like IRAQ'S Sadamm who reward the families of suicide bombers with cash. On the other hand, you do not want to be a Palestinian caught doing the dastardly deed of "collaborating" with Israel that prevents terror attacks. Your fellow Muslim/Arab/Palestinians will lynch you in the streets and the Palestinian authority won't help you.
If this sounds a little harsh, well......then it sounds harsh - I really get a kick out of pictures like this when a terrorist's bomb goes off prematurely because of the way the Palestinians REJOICED about the September 11th attacks on the USA. By the way, the world only saw a VERY SMALL PERCENTAGE of the ARAB CELEBRATIONS OF THE SEPTEMBER 11th attacks.
Cheering about the September 11, 2001 attacks.
I almost want to kick her in the face but I know..she knows not the error of her ways.
THAT WILL LEARN YA!
OH PLEASE AMERICA! NEVER FORGET SEPTEMBER 11th! MANY OF THE DEMOCRATS, LIBERALS AND BLEEDING HEARTS HAVE BECOME COMPLACENT ALREADY. They believe that there is hope for Iraq/Sadamm and that Arafat/Arabs/Palestinians will all of a sudden accept Jews and Israel. THEY WON'T! A Palestinian state will not change their mind either and we have to explain it to them in terms they understand best. That would be WAR in my opinion. The war on terror!
