Which I frankly blame on Arafat.
He could have made the case.
Instead he ginned up the death cult bullshit and debased the legitimate aspects of his position.
That is what makes me think that he never saw the peace process as promoted since the Gulf War as anything more than a way-station on the road to Israel's annihilation.
As for the area of heavy destruction in Janin, it is literally 100 meters by 100 meters, an very small size, and is completely misrpresented by the journalists into being something the size of square miles.
The bloodshed caused by the extremists on both sides os appalling.
That our good will has been co-opted into an instrument to be played by both sides is very very annoying.
