I am not a fan of Jay Leno so I dont watch his show. But at a small party tonight at a friend's house, everyone got quiet and turned to the TV while Leno tried to pull a joke out of the serious situation between Israel and Palestine.
He asked the question "What do you think? Should we give Arafat another chance?" To be honest, I was expecting some small minorty of the audience clapping but it was the complete reversal. Everyone began to Booo and loudly.
It was really interesting especially considering they are in LA, I thought they would get a more sympathetic response to the Palestinian cause but it seems this time people are fed up and they want it resolved, without Arafat.
An interesting new twist in American opinion be it a small sampling of the populus.
