Thanks my Brother for your comment.I also favour none
and i hope both parties need to settle their
difference.Your comment is always what bring me to
discussion on the list.It is always very objective and
critical.Your caliber is what the continent needs.I
belief the Arabs need their land but it most be within
the flame work of peace and reconciliation.I sincerely
hope Arafat will not be kill but he need to set his
house in order to combat violent and the killing of
innocent people.I belief in the Palestinian right of
self determination.I feel the u-turn of United states
to that ideals is a way forward.
