No I disagree. I'm going to Church now, but I'll check in about 11:00 CDT. The main reason I disagree is because Sharon was elected by the Israeli people, while Arafat is a self-appointed terrorist. Also, I do see a morale, christian distinction between blowing oneself up around innocent people (kids, women, people celebrating religious feasts) and soldiers fighting in a war. Should Israel recognize a Palestinian state and get out of Gaza and most of the West Bank? Yes, but only if the Palestinians give up, publicly, their terrorsim. That's where I stand.
I'm trying to see both sides here, but it's hard after 9/11. No matter which way I look at it, I can't help but see Palestinians and Al Qaeda in the same light. And after 9/11, Al Qaeda IS the enemy. Without flaming, if you disagree, try to enlighten me. With all due respect, I'm serious.
