I feel that most of whats being said about warcrimes on the international forum is just hot air and playing the propoganda game. We have yet to see the evidence for atrocities on the scale that is being claimed took place. Repeated showing of the same apartment block having been destroyed, with the same unfortunate dead on the floor just doesn't do it.

Being labled nowadays as racist, being accused of genocide these days produces a stigma that all too often sticks whether true or not.

As the Israeli army is now withdrawing from many of the occupied areas, lets see if the palestinians are able to show themselves as reasonable after having undergone this recent occupation, or whether Arafat's lot will show how ineffective they are at stopping the suicides bombers that are always cited as being carried out in retaliation for this that or the other.
