CNN's Jerrold Kessel was speaking to Israelis in Jerusalem today, assessing the mood. He said:

"There was a time Israelis were angry and disappointed. They felt they had offered the Palestinians much of what they wanted and the Palestinians had spit in their faces."

"The period of disappointment is over. Now Israelis want to beat them and win the war."

It's not going to get better before it gets worse, IMO. Arafat had better have his hotel reservations in Baghdad ready.

Such things are also a spiritual matter. Some Middle-Eastern dialects cite the sound "hu" – which can also be translated as "He" or "God" – as "man's first word" or "man's first word for himself."
The Old Testament's Tower of Babel chronicles the fate of those who lost a universal language due to their own vanity.
One Christian children's magazine, however, got down to some basics earlier this year after a little girl wrote the editor and asked whether Adam and Eve "spoke Hebrew."
"Archeologists have uncovered languages older than Hebrew," came the reply at Discovery magazine, based in Montgomery, Ala.
"We don't know what language Adam spoke, but he was able to name the animals, and communicate with Eve. So, from the very beginning, man was intelligent and spoke a language. He wasn't an ignorant caveman who used grunts to communicate with others."
