Uri Avnery: Uri Avnery views the life and achievements of Yasser Arafat
Uri Avnery looks back on the life and achievements of Yasser Arafat, from liberating the Palestinian people from Arab rulers, to leading the armed struggle against Israel, to his decision to reach an agreement with Israel on the basis of a two-state solution. "Israel will lose a great enemy, who could have become a great partner and ally... As for me, I respected him as a Palestinian patriot, I admired him for his courage, I understood the constraints he was working under, I saw in him the partner for building a new future for our two peoples. I was his friend."
