...Additionally, Arafat’s decision to bar reporters from Gaza last week was poor and short-sighted. Though he likely hoped to prevent images of violent anti-American protests from reaching American television screens, the U.S. cannot form a realistic and workable policy in the Middle East if it is kept in the dark about the true state of Palestinian public opinion...
