Palestinians threaten all-out war
2002-01-23
  • Islamic militants threatened "all-out war" to avenge the killing of a Hamas commander in the West Bank, and Yasser Arafat's Palestinian Authority said it can no longer be expected to enforce a truce with Israel. With tensions and violence rising, Secretary of State Colin Powell telephoned Arafat to urge him to curb attacks on Israel. The U.S. ambassador to Israel called on Israelis and Palestinians to urge their governments to work for peace.
    Yeah, that's absolutely the best thing for the Palestinians. Keep shooting guns and firing rockets and all that stuff. Then, in about six months or so, when you're sitting around in Tunisia or someplace, you can complain about how persecuted you are.
