Note the Washington Post's position that we need the continued presence of "the leadership of the Palestinian Authority as well as its principal security services'' because they have been "the only available instruments for stopping Palestinian terrorism.''

This shows the bankruptcy of American liberals when it comes to achieving peace in the Middle EAst. Arafat and the PA are their teddy bear, their security blanket. As Best of the Web pointed out, they are like Charlie Brown falling for Lucy and her football time after time.

The fact that the Administration is giving in to this nonsense makes this phenomenon not only silly, but very sad.
