Did not know much about Baghrouti. Thanks for the info. Well, if Arafat has to go, then he has to go. I guess that is why the Saudis had the telethon for the Palestenians.

I don't know if this is true or not--I saw it on another message board: Cretin Shaheed, a reporter for the Cleveland News-Dispatch reports tonight: Cleveland--June 28, 2002--Over 100 Palestinians posing as computer technicians and college students have been quietly arrested by the FBI after an informant tipped off federal agents to their plan to strike at targets throughout the United States. Five of the arrested Palestinians had made calls within the past week to a Western Pakistan location believed to be an Al-Qaeda hideout and to Stalwart Kameldryvah, Yasser Arafat's brother-in-law. Searches of dorm rooms and apartment buildings throughout the Midwest have turned up large amounts of information on bomb-building, including construction of Kofi Cannons, a type of strap-on explosive device that can bring down a building or kill many persons within 100 feet of a homicide bomber. The Kofi Cannon designs found by the FBI commonly contain nails, warfarin (a form of rat poison), and mustard gas. Two Palestinians in suburban Muftisburg, Ohio were running a desktop publishing operation which was churning out leaflets blaming planned terrorist attacks on "Zionist agents of Israel." Federal agents have warned that many persons have entered the country in the past several years posing as Arab students. "In reality," regional director John Edgar Gettum said, "These persons are mainly infiltrators aimed at doing us harm. We should watch them, and watch what they do. Lives are at stake."
