The result is the level of tension in the Middle East has reached a frightening level, especially with the bombing that occurred in Tel Aviv last Sunday. A suicide bomber killed himself and another man on Sunday in an attack at a bus stop outside Tel Aviv that wounded 39 others. A Palestinian group calling itself the Popular Army Front-Return Battalions claimed responsibility for the bombing in a written statement sent to Reuters. But Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon placed the blame for Sunday's attack on the Palestinian Authority, saying it had failed to restrain militant Palestinian groups. The accusation brought a swift denial from Tayeb Abdel Rahim, a top aide to Palestinian Authority President Yasser Arafat.
Statesmen work towards peace and tyrants foment violence and wars and then blame in on others.
Arafat has cloaked himself as a statesman with his words, but his actions show him to be tyrant, well skilled in the duality of deception. Sheikh Prof. Abdul Hadi Palazzi, secretary general of the Italian Muslim Association has reduced the entire topic of Yasser Arafat and the PLO into two words, tyranny and corruption. This is the true duality.
