===> "Arafat Deputy: Uprising Was a Mistake. What happened in these two years, as we see it now, is a complete destruction of everything we built," Abbas was quoted as saying. <=== Wrong. Not everything was destroyed. During the uprising, Arafat, his goons, and the leaders of Hamas increased their personal bank accounts by tens of millions of dollars. Arafat's wife is really living it up in France, while Palestinians suffer from poverty. If the Palestinians had accepted the peace offer from Israel two years ago, they would have had a higher standard of living than most Arabs living in the many Arab dictatorships. Abba Eban: The Palestinians have never missed an opportunity to miss an opportunity.
