Reader comment on item: Foreword

Yasr Arafat was elected "leader" of the Palestinian people by the Communist and Third World Bloc in the United Nations, not by the people of Gaza, Nablus, Ramallah, etc. His organization has been a bloody-minded bunch of thugs from inception, so if it has spawned an equally bloody opposition, it's only a chicken coming home to roost. My advice to Bush's lame duck administration and Obama's new one is to let them slaughter each other.
