They would win hands down if they took the Gandhi approach. It is a sure fire approach to fight against tyranny in a democracy.

I agree. They need to fire whoever is handling their PR, fire Arafat, and find someone who can lead the Pals in non-violent political action. They would win. There is enough sympathy for them here, and in Europe, and incredibly enough, even among Israelis, that few people would begrudge them their victory.

But, any prospective Ghandis and Martin Luther Kings there have probably been murdered by Arafat's security apparatus. They have executed hundreds and hundreds of "collaborators". Among those killed were some our Ghandis, maybe. This is why I say nothing can be done why Arafat is there. When psycho killers rule, normal people either leave (and they have left in droves, taking up residence all over the middle east, and europe, and probably YourTown, USA) or they keep their heads down and their mouths shut.

This is precisely why our US State Dept decision to invite Arafat into the West Bank was such an immoral and deadly blunder.
