Well, I think Netanyahu gets a bad rap... His brother commanded the Entebbe raid, during which Israeli hostages were held by terrorists of Arafat's PLO. His brother also was the only military casualty.

He has a deepseated distrust of Arafat, as well he should have.... But he also knows how to deal with him from a position of strength, which is required when dealing with the Arab political mindset. If you show weakness, they will continue to attempt to break down your will and make even greater demands.

Next time any of you feel like the Palestinians deserve their own homeland on the west bank, ask yourselves who invaded and conquered that territory in 1948, when it was known as the Palestinian Partition....

And then ask yourself what the national language of the Palestinians is.

Not that I hate Palestinians, mind you... I'm not Jewish.. I just believe in calling a spade a spade...

And I certainly have some serious heartburn about any people who can slap a bunch of rocks or molotov cocktails in their children's hands and sacrifice in the name of "martyrdom".
