In any case, it does not make much practical difference. Bush announced in his speech to Congress right after 9/11 that we were going to go after all terrorists.

Yes, of course, but that remains one of several serious mistakes.

On Arafat, hmm. My take, at the moment, it's that Sharon is trying to (a) derail the meager talks between Israeli and Palestinian offices which were underway; (b) trying to derail the internal Palestinian moves to undermine Arafat by reinvoking the notion that political enemies of Arafat must be friends of Israelis; (c) something like Serge Schenemann wrote in the Times, that it was simply Sharon's deep seated hatred for Arafat that lead him to do dumb things now and again or (d) all of the above.

So what's your take. Most likely not the above.
