Second Verse, Same As The First...


RAMALLAH, West Bank (Reuters) - Palestinian Prime Minister Ahmed Qurie threatened to quit on Thursday in what appeared to be a dispute with President Yasser Arafat (news - web sites) over security powers key to a revival of Middle East peacemaking.

"Qurie told Arafat he will not form the cabinet and doesn't want to be prime minister anymore," a Palestinian official said after the indefinite postponement of a session of parliament that was to ratify an emergency government sworn in on Tuesday.

Will Arafat EVER get it?

Mark's Remarks

Answer: Not until Mr. Mossad Persuasion puts the gun to his head.....or the Palestinians demand his resignation/demise. The man is not helping the cause..he is causing more death and destruction. I hope the peaceloving Palestinians (who I am sure comprise the majority of Palestinians) rise up and topple this idiot.
