re: I suppose this explains the difference
the documents were found that prove beyond any reasonable doubt that Arafat is at root of suicide bombings.
re: is in a position to at least discourage
he would have to discourage himself 1st
re: why would they have bothered to engage Arafat in discussions?
both administrations were aware that he is unwilling rather than not capable. The problem is that PA is not a democratic state and arafat is in the power

"Hamas has capitalised
on the Palestinian
Authority's failure to
establish a functioning
infrastructure by
setting up a parallel
welfare system with
millions of dollars of
foreign aid - mostly
from Saudi Arabia. "

"But Hamas has never
yet openly challenged
Mr Arafat's leadership,
perhaps recognising
that its popular support
only goes so far."
