I spent 6 years working at Naval Intel and was briefed of some of the standard practices of Arafat. Anyone that has compassion for this terrorist scumbag is ill-informed and should NOT comment.
So Bush is bad because 1,100 troops died clearing out Hussein and his band of killers. Plus we may have known someone personally that died. But Arafat , who was trained by the Russians and murdered/tortured many THOUSANDS of innocent people is worthy of compassion ??? ( I'm a registered Indy, BTW, so stick the political angle).
I CANT EVEN BELIEVE I'M READING THIS DRIVEL ! If this is about sour grapes, due to Politics or some bad hangover, I suggest you re-think your position.
