They are also invading other areas, including Jenin again. God knows who they didn't kill there already in their 3 weeks invasion.

However, remember the hooting and hollering about the Jenin massacre, where the first estimates were 500 civilians, and it got down to "50"? And people were saying it was "only 50".

Well, while the Israelis surrounded Arafat's complex, and kept the news on that and the Bethlehem church, they were busy slaughtering Palestinians in Nablus and other areas. Didn't get much press.

As long as they surround Arafat's offices, the news will be focussed there. They know that.

"Had he been prime minister, he said, he would have seized the chance then, while the world was watching China, to carry out the transfer of the Palestinians." -- p. 137 Washington Report 09/1998"

Very often what seems dumb is only because there aren't enough facts.
