Gee, I'm sooooooooo surprised . . . . NOT!!!!

No love for Arafat here, but note the coincidental timing of this story and Egypt's presidential visit. Also the fact that no source(s) are attributed to this revelation. The fact that Arafat has killed American's isn't new. The statements linking him to this killing are unattributed and unsubstantiated at this time. Is there a confirming credible second source of information that you are aware of as it relates to Arafat's connection to these 3 murders?

The most frequent visitor to the Clinton White House was Yassir Arafat. A known terrorist.

"Your lower headline notwithstanding, I think Arafat's days on this earth are numbered, and very rapidly running out."

Yeah, he's about to link up with Yassir. The U.S. may publicly be opposed to Arafat getting hit, but I can almost guarantee that privately we are telling Israel to "go for it." Arafat will be gone by next year.

Arabs are, historically, very proficient liars.

[Stultis]

For those who've forgotten, Arafat began his career murdering Americans.

I think Arafat actually began his career murdering Jordanians. After the Jordanians kicked his ass he entered his "international terrorism" phase, kiling Americans and other targets of opportunity. Then he moved into Lebanon and started the mass murdering of Christians in the Middle East itself. His current Jew killing, therefore, is really just the culmination of a career trifecta: (Jordanian) Muslims, (Lebanese) Christians and (Israeli) Jews.

Received a copy of that article also.

It doesn't surprise me in the slightest that the NSA would not be forthcoming. They have never told the truth about The Pueblo disaster and capture, allowing the ship's commander to be prosecuted. They never came across with the truth about the Liberty, and Israel is still blamed for that, when the fault lies with the NSA which NEVER even told the crew what they were doing.
During Nixon, there was not much love for Israel either with John Sununu calling most of the shots. What you see now in these 9/11 hearings is a system of corruption in our intelligence agencies who did NOT work to the security of the US, but carried out their own agendas and even lied to the President on occasions when it was most important he be told the truth.
It has always been a CYA operation with some agencies...Caspar Weinberger notwithstanding. Coverup....big time.

1. Israel has a high number of treasonous, self-hating letist voters. So does America.While lower in terms of precentage then Europe, it is still alarmingly high.
This is true in all Western Countries. The problem for israel is that it is small and surrounded by hostile enemies. It has less leeway.

2. Israel is in large part responsible for bringing Arafat back to power. For OSlo. For arming him. For training him. For decieving a battle-worn Israeli public with lies about his intentions despite clear evidence to the countrary.
Sad but true. However, all of this came with the proding and involvment of Europe, the Russians, and the US.

4. Israel is responsible for not doing what is takes to defeat their enemies.
The US stopped Israel from presing victory in 1956 and 1967.

The reality is that no one wants try civilizational warfare. it turns our stomachs.
