Do we want to encourage another drama queen to succeed Arafat?


Beldar is very sensible. And indeed, the Pals have another drama queen in mind - Marwan Barghouti, currently in Israeli jail for killing 5 Israelis. They're trying to arrange a swap that will free him. I hope the US does NOT go along.
