Z, has it occurred to you that maybe Arafat and many other Arabs are literally being held hostage by the terrorist groups and their supporters? I can guarantee you that the extreme Islamic fundamentalists apply their tactics of fear just as much to gain domestic support as they do to hurt their Jewish and Western enemies. Islam is one of the fastest growing religions for a reason, you know, and it's not because many of the converts really had a choice.

Not that I'm saying that Arafat and others can't do more to combat terrorism. But I am saying that there is a real problem in the Islamic world, and the sooner Middle Easterners recognize it, the sooner they can break the self-destructive cycle. And it is my belief that Arafat is just a pawn in this tragic game.
