Anti-semitism fuels their feelings and her feelings. Case closed.

If a lack of cowardice were the main criterion for great leadership, I can think of plenty of despots, tyrants and brutes who might be similarly lauded. As for his suppposed "ambivalence toward violence"--this woman seems to be ingesting some mighty powerful psychotropics to have such skewed perceptions. Either that or she works for the BBC. (And the CBC, too.) “no one could accuse him of cowardice”

Now. How exactly does this mentality get from the 'ho house to the press room? And, much bigger question, how does it survive in the press room? In a market-forces pressroom?

But he chose to reject peace, and start up in the intifada. Arafat has no small amount of Jewish, American, and Israeli (among others) blood on his hands, but the people he really has betrayed are the Palestinians. (I would say his own people, but he's apparently Egyptian).
