what kind of running room will Sharon get with America, what are his options when the Pals respond to the disengagement with more attacks, what will happen to the Pals' international standing?

Bush will Sharon more running room, although the ME leaders will scream when Sharon attacks the Pals. The Pals will always be the "victims" as far as the Euro leaders are concerned. The Euro media will make sure of that.

I look upon the Gaza pullout as a "beat to quarters" situation. No more "occupation." They can really go after Hamas.

BTW, if you haven't read The Atlantic article "How Arafat Ruined Palestine", please do, it's great. It lays it all out. The PA does not exist, and never did, except as Arafat's giant patronage-cum-extortion scheme. The article is subscriber only, unfortunately.
