I am so glad the Israelis did not kill Arafat. I'm sure it was tempting, very tempting, and the Israelis showed remarkable restraint and intelligence. It is far better for Arafat to lose credibility with his own people than (had he died) to be treated as a martyr, and thus a legend.

That's true. Many would like to shoot that table cloth right off his head, but slow humiliation is better.
