The Pendragon's Hall

The other big news is the death of terrorist mastermind Yasir Arafat at 75. I've tried and tried to feel sorry, if for nothing else than the torment for all eternity he's undergoing now. But I just can't. It's like if Saddam Hussein died. Who would really feel sorry? I think the Palestinian people will be better off. I hope, like President Bush, that they will reject terrorism now and actively seek peace with Israel. Perhaps there can still be hope for peace in the region, although I sincerely doubt it. But the chances are much better without Yasir Arafat.
