Give me a break, Arafat stole a ton of money. Why do you think the Palestinians still live in squalor, while Arafat has a big fat Swiss bank account?
My biggest objection to aid to the Palestinians is that they never get it...

Is this money Arafat's or not? Did he take it and he will not give it back or did he invest it in the Palestinian people. Seems like investing in 69 enterprises might actually create jobs, which the last time I checked was better then welfare.


Was not a Palestinian leader assassinated by Palestinians because he was seen as being to soft with Israel and therefore a traitor? What do Palestinians say about this story? Would not the same fate await Arafat if he was seen as a complete traitor?
