a pity. the palestinians finally recieved a leader who valued his authority as moral and political leader and who wasn't cut out of arafat's mold. it
seemed to dawn on this man that new measures were required, measures that did not amount to holding the terrorist's hands and cooing soft
words to them about how they should ease up on their campaigns of mass murder. oh, the novelties.
all to predictably arafat's lapdog erekat accused the usual bogeymen, blaming 'the United States and Israel for his decision, accusing the two of
making statements supporting him without backing those words with practical measures.' al-jazeera link
the worst aspect of this tragic farce is that arafat now has to decide whether to accept or decline this poor man's resignation. :disgust:
