Yasser Arafat, caught in the tightest Israeli chokehold yet, pleaded for the world's help after troops blew up buildings in his compound Friday and started digging a deep trench and running coils of barbed wire around his office.

That sounds delightful, barbed wire must be quite a sight.

The White House urged Israel to show restraint, suggesting that too harsh a reprisal for a suicide bombing claimed by Arafat's Islamic militant rivals would upset efforts to reform the Palestinian Authority and secure a truce.

Oh ppppptttthhhhhh!

Arafat has said he would never again leave the Palestinian lands.

How very brave of him to say so considering it has been made clear that if he does, he won't be allowed to return.

Especially if they use the razor type barbed wire
