SO STUPID, SO OFTEN RIGHT :

Intifada fatigue hits Palestinians : More Palestinians are openly criticizing the strategy of suicide bombings and voicing mixed feelings about Arafat. (Cameron W. Barr, 7/05/02, The Christian Science Monitor)

After 21 months of open conflict, many Palestinians are rethinking two key elements of their struggle against Israel: their leader and the use of violence against Israeli civilians.

Decades of backing Yasser Arafat and years of fighting Israel with suicide bombers have not produced any positive gains, a growing number of Palestinians now say.

Wasn't it just a week a ago we heard that President Bush was a naive moron for thinking Palestinians would ever give up on Arafat and terror? Posted by Orrin Judd at July 6, 2002 8:19 AM
