(Jerusalem Post) Editorial - If anyone doubted the grip that Arafat has on Palestinians and Israelis, Saddam's rule should be food for thought. Like Saddam on the run, Arafat has such powers that even in exile he would retain sufficient power to torpedo any initiative he might oppose. The U.S. and Israel are acting as if it is possible to progress toward peace with Arafat in full control of the PA. The current discussion of unilateral measures, which no one suggests will bring an end to the conflict, has arisen as a substitute for the only real hope, which remains regime change on the Palestinian side. This was the essential insight of President Bush. We hope that Saddam's capture will reverberate against the terror network everywhere, and help end the Palestinian jihad against us as well.
