RAMALLAH, West Bank (CNN) -- The Israeli army Friday began demolishing a connecting bridge between Yasser Arafat's office and another building in his Ramallah compound. Palestinian officials feared it could cause the collapse of the building housing their president.

"The situation is very grave and serious," said Nabil abu Rudeineh, an Arafat aide inside Arafat's office. "We urge the United States to interfere immediately to stop this catastrophe."

He has guns, kids, and a meth lab. His wife is Christian. He's holed up in a compound.

I would love to know the technical details of how the Israeli's blow up a huge building with a single blast. I'm thinking of that "terrorism center" that they razed a couple months ago; the building looked to be the size of a big-city convention center, and appeared to be made out of solid concrete. They reduced it to rubble with one shot.

How in the world do you do that? How much noise does it make?

Let me make it clear my curiosity is purely intellectual. Entertainment purposes only.

Again, don't forget being rude to an ATF agent.

Not to worry, one of Arafat's henchmen is on the phone with CNN telling the world how bad it is in the compound.

He says Israel should come back to the bargaining table instead of doing this.

I remember the last time they surrounded Yasser's compound & listening to Hanan Ashwari (who wasn't even there), screaming into the phone, "we are under siege...." I remember saying something like, "Honey, you don't KNOW what a siege is." And I chuckled.

Heh heh heh...tempting. Looks like the IDF has this one well in hand, though.

"Okay, so the Arabs have just invited America to come into the Middle East and take care of the situation?."


Maybe they should go to the "whip crackin'" Useless Nations!

That would be a pity.

["No one is going to kill Arafat, no one is going to expel Arafat," said Alon Pinkas, Israel's consul general in New York.]

"BUT, if a building should accidently fall on chairman Arafat, well he would be schtooked in that case."

Besieged Arafat Pleads for Help

So the pig ArabFat is calling for help. Well, it's a bit too late to help the hundreds of innocent Israeli men, women, and children killed by the sub-human goat-molesting Palis. I'd like to see someone put this fat piece of sh*t on a bus and blow it to hell where he belongs.

Then why am I laughing?
