Well, as far as I am concerned the blame goes directly to the Palestinian leadership and Arafat himself.
The man IS and WAS a trigger happy terrorist during his whole life. The Americans and Israelis had made a huge mistake thinking that by offering him peace through the establishment of a Palestinian state would change his evil ways...
NO !, he said.
So after he had received control over most of the West Bank towns and Gaza, plus huge amounts of ammunition (given by Israel) intended to contain the extremist groups, he simply joined them.
If you ask me, it was all planned, a trojan horse !
The U.S is RIGHT for supporting Israel in it's fight against terrorism. The way I see it Israel is only acting upon basic self defence.
Israel is a very small country but it's the only place on earth for Jews to call their own. In only 50 years they have built a society based on freedom and democracy which is more than I can say for any Arab state...
