Why the fuck does Isreal just "surround" Arafat's compound..

[AAP]

when they get pissed off? They roll their tanks in, surround the compound, and then in a few days break the siege. Why? What is the point of this?

Politics? So CNN can catch it all on video tape and show it around the world?

Or maybe they are just prepping the field. Do it a few times with no firing, then one time they just won't stop. Kinda an inverse "cry wolf"?

Who knows...

Both very good points.

1. If they do nothing, Arafat wins..

2. If they kill Arafat, he becomes a martyr which towel heads idolize. Arafat wins again.

3. If they try to arrest him, he has already said he would rather die fighting....Martyr yet again...Arafit still wins.

4. If by any chance they were actually able to arrest him, retaliation from the stinky fucks by way of more suicide bombings is a likely result. Yeah they have Arafat, but the suicide bombings continue, and who will replace him??

We have the same situation with Bin Laden. We want him to suffer more than anyone on earth, but if we kill him he becomes a hero and if we capture him, the stinky muslims who love him will attack us in every way possible until he is free, IF he is freed.

What Isreal is doing is probably the one thing that will hurt him more than anything. He is now trapped. It becomes a nuissance to him because he can't go anywhere. It's kinda like a slap in the face from the jews...Kinda like them saying haha we got you na na na na na na!...And he is somewhat under arrest but not really and he isnt dead so he still isnt a god like hero. This pisses them off more than anything, its kinda like a major disrespect. Very good idea actually.

sigh. Comparing Arafat with Bin Laden is not helpful here. Arafat has done a great deal for the peace process. Not because he likes the Israelis but because he's smart and knows the Israelis have bigger guns. Shame a lot of his people now regard him as irrelevant. I dunno why Sharon is so fixated on Arafat as it's obvious no-one cares what Arafat thinks. Believe it or not Arafat does not go round personally to each depressed violent teenager in the West Bank and tuck them into bed with "now Johnnie no suicide bombing tomorrow go to school there's a good boy" pep talks. You need to realise folks that the situation does NOT hinge on a single person. Only in Hollywood is that the case.

What they should do to Arafat is the equivalent of what the Palestinians are doing to the Israelis- Go and kill his wife and daughter who are living in Paris.

Better yet, why don't they just rape them both first, then eviscerate them- all on videotape- and then send it to him. Yeah...that would do the trick.

Sheesh.

LOL

Why dont they just kill him?

Have youi looked on the map where Israel are located and who surrounds them?

If you think the current suicide bombings are bad, and if they were to surround and kill him - you have not a clue what would happen if they did kill him!...Israel would be taken off the map I reckon?!.....not even they have the bottle to kill Arafat..like it or not, if need be all the other islamic nations would have alot to say if they killed him

 

[Lumbuss]

they should just kill arafat and get rid of the paletstinains, isreal is supposed to be a jewish country anyway. then if other arabain nations attack isreal, the usa and russia will just have an excuse now to wipe out those nations. problem solved.
