I say let's bury Hitler once and for all! His abominations have got nothing to do with this and are in no way a factor in what is going on. I will draw the parallel the other way. What Hitler did to the Jews in World War II, we are seeing it again in what the Israelis are doing to the Palestinians: attempting to dominate or expel or annihilate an entire people on the basis of race and religion.

The Israeli government and military are demanding from Arafat the surrender of so-called terrorists within his headquarters building. But just what is a terrorist? Seems like everybody who opposes Israel's designs to conquer the Palestinians once and for all are terrorists and have got to be put aside. This is nonsense! Arafat is not recognized as he should be as the leader of a country called Palestine, and until that is accomplished, and until the US stops its pro-Israel partiality as if Israel were the 51st state of the Union, there will be no advance toward real peace.

The philosophy of the Israelis and the Zionists in America, that Arafat must go, will not stand up historically or in the light of present events. Arafat will not go. All of these recent attacks only strengthen his desire and resolve to remain as head of the Palestinian people and see them through to having a state of their own which they deserve like any national group. Until both sides openly recognize and work toward a two-state solution, this endless tragedy will go on.
