by Charles Krauthammer. Originally published in The Weekly Standard, it has been reprinted in the Israeli online magazine 'Jewish Issues.'
Basically, it's a retelling of the history of Israel's relations with Arafat and the Palestinians, but it's a good read for anyone desiring to understand 'Arafat's War' which is what the author has chosen to name the last 30 years of Yasser Arafat's terrorism against Israel.
Basically, Krauthammer believes that Arafat will continue his never-abandoned drive to establish a Palestine 'from the river to the sea', meaning, of course, no Israel! Israel will fight a war of annihilation against the PLO, Hamas, Hezbollah, and any other terrorist group, leave the West Bank for good, and build a security fence around Israel once and for all!
The plan is to 'attack, evacuate, separate.'
BTW, this article was written prior to the events of 9-11-2001, and prior to the announcement by Bush Administration's goal of establishing a Palestinian state.
