I do. What scares me is the acceptance arafat has gained over the past 8 (at least) years. He is a murderer. He is a coward. He used to be regarded by the world as evil personified. That the world can now see him as anything else is repulsive.

Truth is truth. Terrorism is as evil against innocent Jews as it is innocent Americans. "You are either with us or with the terrorists" applies to us as much as it does the rest of the world. I stand with Israel against terrorism.

As an American, it is the least I can do. It was not too long ago, we had no friends (if you can call them that) in the Arab World. Israel was our ally and our only buffer against the Soviet Union in that part of the world. Now that the world is turning against Israel, the right thing to do is to stand by her side.
