This is what the youth think of Arafat who live in Palestine...
"If Arafat dies I am afraid that the Jews will take out our people and we will be without a state," said 11-year-old Khalil Abu Ein.
On Wednesday, while Palestinian Authority Chairman Yasser Arafat lay on his deathbed in Paris, Abu Ein sat on the stairway outside his class in a Ramallah middle school telling a reporter his views of his president and the future of his people and their state.
Palestinian children interviewed in Ein Masbach public elementary school in Ramallah agreed that Arafat was their rais (leader), but they differed regarding the success of his leadership and what the future will look like without him.
Tarek Adnan wished his leader death. The 12-year old with the highest grades in the class, a thin t-shirt far too large for his small frame, dirty pants, and cheap plastic shoes, considers Arafat a traitor. "I will be happy if he dies because he gave Hamas members to the Jews. I consider him a traitor. I hate him. <b>Nobody loves him." </b>
"He kills and he imprisons innocent people and the guilty go free."
Adnan does not support any of the leaders presently in the PA. "They are all traitors. I want Hamas. Without Hamas we would lose all our people. They are the ones that do operations. If the [israeli] army gets into the city they are the ones that protect the people."
"We need someone from Hamas but he has to rule with righteousness – to defend the people," said Adnan who hopes to be an electrical engineer and a member of Hamas when he grows up. "I want to think of a plan to free Palestine."
