usa today palestine spin alert

[Cian]

Arafat's popularity did go down though after the
israelis let him out of the bunker. Palestinians
(probably rightly) thought he had done a deal with the
Israelis. Then he compounded that by refusing to go to
see one of the towns after the Israeli attack (I'm
tired, so can't remember the name).

I agree the conclusions drawn by the article are
dubious, but I don't think Arafat is particularly
popular with the Palestinians. Ironically the only
thing he has going for him is that Sharon is so
determined to get rid of him.
