Did you notice that your buddy Arafat is putting on trial 4 palestinians for the murder of the Americans back in October in Gaza?. Trial date is the end of Feb.

The key was that the US threatened to cut programs unless the PLO cooperated in the investigation. Arafat finally buckled when the US threatened to cut back on aid. That's all he really cares about, more money for those Swiss bank accounts per CBS 60 Minutes.

I believe you, although it may have been one of the other haters, posted that you felt it must have been done by Israelis trying to pin it on palestinian terrorists because Arabs don't have remote controls or some other goofy argument. In any event, PLO gave in and admitted it was their own guys, and they're going on trial.
