Arafat is the greatest obstacle to peace and stability in the Middle East.

In my view, Arafat is the only Palestinian in the world that isn't willing to have an independent Palestinian state.

Arafat was a barrier to peace.

Arafat is the greatest instigator of terror.

Arafat's whole life has been governed by struggle and a cause. Everything he has done as leader of the Palestinians is to always leave his options open, never close a door.

Arafat rejected the deal because, as a dictator who had directed all his energies toward strengthening the Palestinians hatred toward Israel, Arafat could not afford to make peace.

War is something Arafat sends others to do for him. That is, the poor souls who believe in him. This pompous incompetent caused the failure of the Camp David negotiations, Clinton's mediation.

I support peace.

No Arab ruler will consider the peace process seriously so long as he is able to toy with the idea of achieving more by the way of violence.
