I'm not asking whether Arafat agreed to Oslo - we know he did. I'm asking whether you think he was keeping his fingers crossed behind his back when he did. You seem to think this was the case for Rabin and Perez, so why don't you extend the same courtesy to Arafat?

I think it would be very interesting for you to read up on Netanyahu's criticism of the Oslo Accords from back when he was an opposition leader running against Perez. You'll be happily surprised to find out he was using the exact same arguments as you are now, claiming the other side could never be trusted.

You asked if Arafat recognized the state of Israel and he did and I provided you the evidence. I gave you ststements from Israeli leaders from all eras and ignored them

You are the one who keep blaming palestinian for the maintenance of the occupation like Netenyahu claim and all Israel leaders refused to give Palestinians a full fledged state with full sovereignty

You need to read my comment again then. I didn't ask whether he stated he recognized it after Oslo. .

I gave you ststements from Israeli leaders from all eras and ignored them

Then what do you make of this statement by Arafat?

Peace for us means the destruction of Israel. We are preparing for an all-out war, a war which will last for generations.

His last position was that he recognized israel right to exist. Israel position since it's creation is no palestinian state ever

You are not discudding in good faith.
