And if you think he wouldn't want to, you haven't been listening.

The fact that peace is not winning tells me you are right on that point. No doubt in my mind that Arafat is the current head of a serpent that wants to destroy Israel.

The best way to destroy Arafat is to win the souls of Palestinians. Mowing down their houses, and killing them in bigger numbers then your own losses, is not the way to do that.

Sure we have talked about the fact that they use suicidal deaths as an advantage in world politics, which I likened to the French Foreign Legion approach to conflict... casualties don't matter, once you win the war.

I take my dog for a walk now and again. Meet plenty of ex military types, several who have even served in the FFL. They fought in a bloodless war in Africa somewhere, where not even a shot was fired. They turned up, and that is all they needed to do.

So, why don't the Israelis ensure the kill ratio of Palestinians is below their own losses (for a start)?
