What I'm curious about is, the fact that some Palestinians interviewed said that Israel would have never done that without the approbation of the
U.S., while the U.S. claim it had no knowledge of these attacks before it happenned.
What do you think? We're they aware it was going to happen?
Do you think Arafat is next?
Israel came right out and said that they told no one of their plans, especially the US. Many US politicians and WH officials condemned the attack.
With stability in that region the way it is, the US would have never openly condoned that attack. (If the US knew and what was said behind closed
doors is anyone's guess)
HAMAS also claimed that they have no intent of attacking the US. They claimed that they only want the Israelis out.
Not the smartest move that Sharon and the IDF have pulled. They turned the HAMAS leader into a maryter. He is now far more powerful in death than he
ever was in life.
Plus, the vision of the frail old man in the wheelchair really does not look good politicaly. Even if he was the one calling the shots.
They basically have poked a hornet's nest with a stick. It is going to get real ugly, real soon.
