Frankly, I’m sick and tired of the year in and year out problems Gaza and the West Bank represent.

A decade ago it was The Sharon and Arafat Show. Arafat would poke and poke and poke until Sharon had enough. Sharon would mount a big offensive, go into the Palestinian area, surround Arafat's compound, shake his fist, and go back home in a few days.

Months later, the cycle would repeat itself.

As for Arafat, he died a weathly man, supposedly had a couple of $billion in European banks -- money the rest of the world sent to help out the Palestinians.

How many other dictators have gotten wealthy from the humanitarian efforts of the rest of the world? Too many, that is for sure.

Two great examples and I agree with you. We’ve been funding way too many dictators around the world for years. No, decades.
