I read one story in FR today that the Bush administration tied Israel's hands earlier this year from pursuing their war on terrorism by stopping them from taking out Arafat and his terrorist cronies.You conveniently leave out "the rest of the story", and your naivete is glaringly apparent. I posit, would you have Arafat a martyr for terrorism, or groveling like a rat in his compound?
I want him dead. You want him alive? If so, what is your argument for wanting Ossama to be dead?
