Bias toward Israel? What is the bias? Asking him to actually do something to stop his folks from killing Jews perhaps? Such horrible bias those aweful americans show.

"Dear God, who cares about the Americans," Arafat said, striking the air with his hand at his office in the West Bank city of Ramallah. "The Americans are on your side and they give you everything," Arafat told Channel One television. "Who gave you the airplanes? The Americans. Who gave you the tanks? The Americans."

Arafat: (thinking)'damn did I say that out loud? oh man... I did... CRAP

Silence...

The night stalkers stike - and Arafat ceases to exist.

Actually, if Arafat didn't take the money we give to Palestinians and line his own pockets with it.......

All he has to do is be a leader, but he's proving that he can't even do that.

"Dear God, who cares about the Americans" ...
Forget Iraq. Our next project should be the Palestinian Authority. Let them eat JDAMs. We have shown the world what happens if you attack us; now let us show the world what happens if you attack our friends.

This is, of course, wishful thinking.

America favors Israel over the Palestinians? Ya think?

The United States also grants the Palestinians aid annually.

That needs to come to a screeching halt. You're not supposed to bite the hand that feeds ya.

These folks' problem is that they're in a high stakes poker game and they have no cards. So they try to tip the table over and scatter the stakes. And whine. If they had any sense at all, they'd join up w/ Israel, in partnership, and be the only Arabs in the world with a decent life.

Reminds me of the Smothers Brothers and the "Mom always liked you best" routine. Dick got a nice dog; Tommy got a stupid rooster named Frank.

"Your leaders don't stop the incitement against us," Arafat said. "You say that I am bin Laden and the Palestinian Authority is the Taliban. Am I bin Laden?"

Um...YEAH...

No sh*t Sherlock, did he figure that out all by his lonesome?
We're biased towards a "Democratic" country instead of towards bunch of murdering fanatics.
This is "Breaking News" to this goon???
