PAT BUCHANAN DEFENDS ARAFAT

Arafat's Amen Corner
Pat Buchanan weighs in with a defense of Yasser Arafat against Boston Globe columnist Jeff Jacoby:

If, as Jacoby writes, Arafat "inculcated the vilest culture of Jew-hatred since the Third Reich," why did Ehud Barak offer him 95 percent of the West Bank and a
capital in Jerusalem? Why did "Bibi" Netanyahu give him Hebron?

Why did Shimon Peres and Yitzhak Rabin share a Nobel Prize with him? Why did Bill Clinton invite him to the White House more times than any other leader? Were they all enablers of terrorism?

No.

Actually, the answer is yes--but Buchanan fails to acknowledge it even after the fact. Perhaps Buchanan is jealous. After all, an argument can be made that Buchanan "inclucated the vilest culture of Jew-hatred since the Third Reich."
