Remove him and Civil War occurs...

[Gobalopper]

The only way it will end is with someone winning the war or a complete change in the way of life/attitude of one of the sides.

[ordos45]

Yes, and that'll probably be war...everyone is too stubborn to live in peace. (Not every person, but some. Not every single person in Hamas or Hezbollah would lay down their arms.)

The people and their terrorist organizations are too extreme, they will still continue to fight no matter if a peace treaty is sign.

Same goes for the Isrealy.

The options in Middle-east are really thin. If they kill Arafat, more people will go against Israel. If they assimilate Palestine, they will have another Iraq. The only real thing they can do is to leave Palestine alone, but would that stop the attacks? Wouldn't they continue until all Israelis are dead?

talk is cheap

i'll believe them when Arafat is dead. anyone can make threats.

[Digital Guerrilla]

What will happen is that Isreali counter-terrorist operations will have to target those under Arafat's wing. Saddam did not leave Iraq so make no mistake that Arafat is not leaving Palestine. The only solution that either side sees is death, the daily human sacrifices for political machines on both sides that are being fueled by the blood of each side. Neither side can find a solution because of the boxes they think inside of, Isreal thinks outside the box they have bulit for Palestine and Palstine thinks inside of the box it's fighting to get out of built by Isreal. There is no simple solution to the Isreali-Palestinian conflict.

As long as neither side will lay down their arms, this conflict will never end..

Arafat is the head of Fatah, father of all palestinian terorism. They have not layed arms even at olympic games, proclaimed as celebration of peace. He deserves to be put into prison or death, which one will choose jewish courts. Terrorists like Ahmed Jasin, bin Ladin or Arafat aren't the ones you can talk by civilised ways. If they want war, let they have it - with bullets in their heads.
