Anis Mansour, one of the Arab world's most influential journalists, has called on Palestinian Authority Chairman Yasser Arafat to follow in the footsteps of the late Egyptian President Anwar Sadat and make peace with Israel.
Mansour, who played a vital role in the peace negotiations with Israel during the tenure of President Sadat and was the former editor of the weekly October magazine, said the Palestinians have missed many opportunities because of Arafat.

Addressing Arafat, the renowned Egyptian journalist, who has written 177 books, added:
"This advice is that you, or whoever represents you, sit
and raise the demands before the eyes of the entire world. You and the entire world know that Sadat and Begin adopted a very simple principle – the honorable international custom of 'anything is negotiable.' You must negotiate so you can refuse and agree. No one has demanded and no one is demanding that you kiss and hug Sharon.

I guess because this is from the Jerusalem Post, it's just going to be trashed. For the people who won't bother to even read the article for the same reason will miss this sentance from one of the paragraphs:
"Writing in the Egyptian government daily al-Ahram, Mansour, 79, urged Arafat to listen to those who are more experienced than him."
The Palestinian people's greatest enemy isn't the GOI or the IDF, it's Suja's "sugar daddy". But for those who are willing to cast the blame on Israel for an earthquake in San Francisco, the truth hardly matters.
