09:40 PST JERUSALEM (AP) -- An explosion went off Wednesday evening in a hotel in the Israeli coastal resort of Netanya, and paramedics said there were dozens of casualties.
The blast came at a time when Israelis were marking the start of the weeklong Passover holiday. Many hotels cater Passover Seders -- the ritual meal that ushers in the holiday.

Is it time to assassinate Arafat, or is it already too late for that? Would it do more harm than good?
I don't think they have anything to lose by doing it at this point.

I agree Crown Prince Abdullah is a tyrant, I disagree on the jerk part. Whatever, my only point was that hearing/reading Abdullah didn't make me cringe, whereas Assad does.

i think you may be right... i think whats happening is bush and friends fear/EXPECT world war three, and want to do it on our terms. which means, when we are ready and have the machinery in place to win, and win big!! thanks again to klinton for his defense cuts, in all areas, particularly in refusing to replenish supplies of tomahawk missiles, for this delay, and subsequently, this unneccessary bloodshed in israel. what if israel did go for it now, and that opened it up for iraq to get a first strike so to speak with scuds into israel? we would be starting the war unprepared and on their terms. i believe sharon and bush know this, and there will be a whole bunch of sorry arabs when we pull the trigger! this is the relative calm before the historic storm, so to speak. when you hear that to start now in iraq would weaken our efforts in afghanistan, we all have one administration, and one anti american, treasonous SOB ex prez to thank, mr william jefferson klinton, the antichrist!

Arafat is not safe there. I wonder how come "Bush Sees Progress In Israeli-Palestinian Truce Talks" - see: http://freerepublic.com/focus/news/654472/postsThe farce perpetrated by the US foreign policy is making me physically ill. How, HOW can the US say "progress" now??? What is the progress exactly? That the Palis are now able to double and triple their average number of victims? That they are getting better and better at their "craft"???
"Look at my darling Yasser" croons proud Powell. "Look at how GOOD he is! I am getting goosebumps just imagining how great he will be in a year or so!!! Honey, we HAVE to get him some more terrorism lessons!!! I don't care WHAT they cost! My, Yasser!!! He will go FAR! He is going to be a SOMEBODY in this world!!!"
Disgusting!

I absolutely agree. If the Palestinians are coming in waves of terror, why hold back? Are the Arabs going to hate Israel more??? I think the time is come for the Apaches of death to fly over Ramallah...

Animals. Of course, it was beyond the pale that the U.S. and coalition forces engage in military activity against the Taliban during Ramadan, but perfectly acceptable for arabs to start wars and murder civilians during Jewish holy periods.
We are going out of our way to declare that the fight against terrorism isn't a fight against Islam. Well, the terrorists enjoy defiling the sanctity of the Jewish faith, so maybe it's time to start defiling the faith of the terrorists, as that's clearly where they are getting their motivation. I can't believe I wrote that but sadly that's where my attitude is going.

These bastards need to die: Haven't you heard. The American government extracted a promise from Sharon that Arafat would not be harmed.
What was it the President said about those who harbor terrorists? Does anyone in Washington ever look in the mirror?
To: freedomson
"What if Israel were to make it a policy to blow up a portion of the 'Dome of the Crock' for every incident like this? "Good idea, or maybe they should toss the mangled bodies of the suicide bombers on the steps and leave them there to rot?

the answer to that promise is a phone call away!

As many as it takes to drive the terrorist Palestinians into the sea. Little correction, this is an Arab slogan - "drive the bloodthirsty Zionist invaders back into the sea". The proper Jewish slogan should be "drive the terrorist Palestinians into the desert". (Sea is to the West and desert is to the East over there.

Dead reported at 10 dead 51 injured

Arafag will condemn the attack (which he really supported) and Powell will talk about the need to end the "cycle" of violence. The Pals are making Bush and Powell look like stupid monkees.

We don't have to invade Iraq...just eliminate Saddam, his crazy sons, and the top 25 so folks in the army and intelligence units...the regime will collapse.....then we will just walk into Bagdad..invited in by the new temporary head of government.....I think the only reason we haven't moved so far is because we haven't figured out yet what to do with the country......we'll have troops and inspectors all over the place, getting all the WMD's.....but then, what?

When exactly do you propose to execute these bombers??? AFTER they have committed their crime! You would not want to punish them BEFORE?
I am impressed.
Thank you.
