After the wait the inevitable has reached its conclusion. PLO leader Yasser Araftat has passed way.

Thoughts on the future of the PLO?

I'm not sorry to see him go; I just hope a moderate takes his place... but I don't hold on too tightly to that dream.

Let us first hope that a bloody power struggle won't ensue.

Let us then hope that chances for peace will be renewed. It won't be quick and it won't be easy, but with sincere diplomatic efforts positive changes may come.
