So Arafat's presence is what is causing the IDF to rampage about the occupied territories? Arafat is what is causing illegal settlements to grow, a barrier built, roads built cutting off Palestinians? I agree that Arafat is not an ideal leader of the Palestinian people, but HE is not the cause of Israel's offenses on the Palestinian people - THAT is what needs to stop for the violence to stop.
If Arafat is removed violently by the IDF he will become a martyr and it will begin an era of violence like none seen before. I hope this is not something ANY sane person would wish for.
