#2 Correction : not Arafat's grave, but a mourning tent in Gaza city. Guess that puts Hamas et al as suspects #1

#3 I was kinda hoping earlier that all the gun sex at Arafat's funeral would wind up killing a few nutballs. Then at their own funerals there would be more gun sex, resulting in still more killings and subsequent funerals, leading to even more gun sex, more funerals, repeat, rinse, decimating the ranks of Hamas and the PA until they could no longer function--in effect truly making Arafat the so-called "peacemaker" the MSM claims he is!

#5 Seems like we ought to drop a MOAB on the grave every few days just to see what the cat drug in.

#6 Popping popcorn, the coming attractions are good so far but waiting for the real show to begin.

#7 Just saw Dore Gold (Israel's Amb to US) on TV say the gunmen firing at Abbas were Al Asqa not Hamas. So maybe before the Fatah-Hamas blood bath, we will have an intra Fatah blood bath.

#9 2 dead in shooting at Arafat’s grave

Yasser would be so proud. Even from beyond the grave his bloodsoaked sleeve still points the way to violent death. Is there no sort of self-immolation sufficiently destructive in nature to dissuade the Palestinian people from their ruinous obsession with terrorism?

#10 Something tells me Bush's four-year window for a democratic Palestine and a peace deal seems a tad optimistic

#11 If the Paleos were smart enough to realize
how stupid they are, they would commit suicide
on the spot........
Wait a second... There's a logical catch 22 in this...
LONG LIVE DARWIN

#12 Lex,
I hope Dubia has a lot of patience......
Teaching democracy to the Paleo's is like
climbing a glass mountain, there's always
some bloody fool exploding in your face or trying to back-stab someone they dont like.

#13 EoZ, I think this is another example that Bush is far more intelligent than his critics. Note how he gave our ally Blair the carrot that he wanted--vocal support for the "peace process", whatever that is, and a commitment to the usual Clintonesque blah-blah (conference, envoy etc)-- while putting the ball in the Paleos' court.

Bush has shifted the terms of the debate 180 degrees. Now the focus, if there is one, will have to be on reform of the failed state that is the PA if Bush is to invest any more "capital." Brilliantly done. Bush retains all of the upside from progress and none of the risk attached to failure.

#14 Well, that didn't take long.

Ding dong, the pig is dead.
Which old pig?
The wicked pig.
Ding dong, the fat old pig is dead...

#16 And these muppets want to run their own country ... They couldnt run a bath.

And they smell like it too. Good one, MacNails, I'll have to file that little gem for future use.
