I almost fainted when I saw Arafat shake hands with Rabin (?) at The White House.

Yep, Rabin. The Israeli PM who was shot by a fanatic for even moving in the direction of peace. The one whose grave other fanatics threatened to desecrate when the IDF cleared a shrine they built to the "suicide gunner", Baruch Goldstein.

A stable peace will never be built until all concerned realize that there are wackos on both sides who have zero interest in anything resembling peace.

In any population of over a million people you will have wackos, however on the Israeli side they are in the minority. And Israel locks up its wackos.

In fact, Israel even had to send back some imported wackos from the US who thought that killing Arabs would speed up the second coming.
