Gawain 0 #1 November 4, 2004 The story is here (AP article) -- http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,137554,00.html. I think his death is at hand, and am curious about this sudden deterioration in health. I, for one, will not shed one tear for this man - a horrific figure at best. The implications for the PLO are obviously huge. I believe that more "extreme" members will take control and hope it will become less effective as a result. Hopefully, other Palestinians will observe the same thing and the peace efforts can be renewed with a new face.So I try and I scream and I beg and I sigh Just to prove I'm alive, and it's alright 'Cause tonight there's a way I'll make light of my treacherous life Make light!

Hamas & Islamic Jihad will take over, and they might make things even worse over there.

Michele 1 #12 November 4, 2004 Yasser Arafat has died (edited: Per what I heard on MSNBC. They are now retracting it, but no-one seems to be sure.) Ori, you and Israel are in my thoughts. I am hoping for an immediate reconciliation, but somehow I don't think that will happen. Hang tight...stay safe. (And Gawain, how great it is to see your name here. Welcome "home!")

wmw999 2,134 #18 November 4, 2004 QuoteOri, you and Israel are in my thoughts. I am hoping for an immediate reconciliation, but somehow I don't think that will happen. Palestine is also in my thoughts, along with Israel. It's not a one-way street. It's a very sore and hurting part of the world, and that's spreading. And no it's not all the fault of either side.

Michele 1 #20 November 4, 2004 QuotePalestine is also in my thoughts, along with Israel. It's not a one-way street. It's a very sore and hurting part of the world, and that's spreading. As it is in my thoughts. But I have to admit, I am far more in support of Israel than I am for Palestine. There is a real opportunity for peace now, but there is a greater chance for infighting and open warfare with the citizens of Israel which can really blow the whole thing up. I am hoping that sanity and peace will win out, but I am not at all confident that it will.
