Update from Ha'aretz: IDF troops massing near Gaza. They also add some detail on the "restructuring" of the P.A. It sounds like the U.S. and Arab countries are going to impose a new political structure. Sounds wonderful - but why should Arafat play along? And what happens if he doesn't? An awful lot is riding on Arafat's willingness to retire from his current position as terrorist chieftain and accept the new, honorary post of terrorist chieftain emeritus.
