After years of saying that he had given up terrorism and was seeking peace with the Jewish state, Yasser Arafat has proven that he is still a terrorist. Documents that the Israeli army has seized in Palestinian Authority (PA) offices in Ramallah and elsewhere show that Arafat had personal involvement in supporting and directing attacks against innocent Israelis during the course of the current war. The New York Times reported that documents seized by the Israeli army had Arafat’s signature approving payments to militants who are know to have been involved with terrorist attacks. The documents show...
...Palestinian people deserve a better leader, one who can rein in militant Palestinian factors and prepare an increasingly radicalized population for eventual peace with Israel. Unfortunately, the PA has spent the years since it gained power inculcating hatred in its children for Israel and for Jews through schools and official media. A large proportion of the Palestinian population now supports suicide bombings, and that attitude will not change until a leader arises who will give the Palestinians hope for eventual reconciliation...
...Hollywood passed on Washington. Yet she had a long, rich life (she died in1994 at the age of 90) in which she was associated with many prominent black artists.

She worked as a bookkeeper for W.C. Handy's record company, and was soon appearing with Baker in the musical "Shuffle Along"(1921). She co-starred with Paul Robeson in the Broadway play...
...Arafat has not done enough to stop the terrorism but that he himself has been the source of the terror.

Asking Arafat and the Palestinian Authority (PA) to control the numerous terrorist factions is equivalent to asking Osama bin Laden to control the al Qaeda terrorists. In Arafat’s Ramallah compound, Israeli forces have found anti-tank weapons, which were explicitly banned under the Oslo accords. In addition, the military has recovered documents that demonstrate...
...Arafat and the PA are so clearly in violation of the Bush Doctrine, then why do so many speak out against Israel’s right to root out terror? The answer is complicated, especially in America, where the desire to maintain support for an assault against Iraq obscures the issue. Nonetheless, some argue that although the Palestinian’s tactics are reprehensible, the motivation behind them is understandable, unlike al Qaeda. End the occupation, the argument goes, and the terrorism will cease...
