#1 it's about time someone paid the price for being a "human shield" for human scum like Saddam and Arafish. I'd suggest a hellfire halo for the martyrs

may not have been serious but I think this is a very good point

Israel now can carry out some very strong strikes against targets that they would not have been able to do last week and to do so without risk of another UN action (although many people don't give a f**k about UN it does have implications in terms of trade, foreign aid, etc.)

As long as Israel threatens Arafat without expelling him, their theatre of operations is dramatcally increased.

#3 Arafat has become a living obstacle to peace.

Mmmm, yes, I know a really simple way to fix that problem...

#4 The attack dealt a new blow to a stalled U.S.-backed peace "road map."

Can't administer a "new blow" when the entity that was being hit is ALREADY DEAD.
