In the short term, Arafat's death
may throw uncertainty into the
planned Israeli withdrawal from the
Gaza Strip. Furthermore, his death
could result in a chaos that prevents
the Palestinians from quickly resolv-
ing their internal affairs, delaying
their ability to turn toward the Israelis
in a renewed peace process, Kedar
said.
"His personal game is finished. The
question is what will people think is
his legacy," Kedar said.
Arafat seemed to seal his fate with
Israelis, and perhaps with the world,
when he rejected the offers at Camp
David in the summer of 2000,
instead giving the nod to the return
of armed struggle against Israel. That
struggle has since become four years
of intense fighting known as the sec-
ond intifada, or Palestinian uprising.
In the violence, almost 3,000 Pales-
tinians have been killed and some
1,000 Israelis have lost their lives.
Israelis who supported the peace
process and thought Arafat would be
the key to resolving the conflict feel
betrayed.
"As a Jew and as an Israeli, I see
him as a murderer and I am happy to
see him die," said Robert Hannuna, a
24-year-old university student.
Hannuna said that he cannot forgive
what he sees as the mistakes Arafat
made when it came to trying to forge
peace with Israel.
"He was a hero to the Palestinians,
he is the one who put the Palestinian
issue on the world agenda, but he
missed the chance to make peace," he
said.
Charles Frankenberg, a 44-year-old
tour guide who immigrated to Israel
from Vancouver, said he is dismayed
that the Palestinian leadership appears
to be trying to keep the world in the
dark about the truth of Arafat's
health. He said that does not bode
well for them being able to be truth-
ful and forthcoming in the future.
"Everybody in Israel is hoping
Arafat will die as soon as possible, so
we can get on with it and move on to
the next stage, whatever that may be,"
he said.
Despite the twinge of sympathy by
Peretz the deli owner, distaste for
Arafat is one of the few things that
now seem to unite both the left and
the right in Israel. On the popular
Israeli satire show Sold Game, contest-
ants were asked how they would
remember Arafat. One brought out a
small toy, a battery-operated yellow
bird, its head wrapped in a kaffiyeh.
It said, "Like a little chicken." ❑
