By contrast, the behavior of the PLO does not strike me as self-righteous. It strikes me as ruthless. It strikes me as violent. If they are self- righteous, this has certainly never bothered me. If someone were threatening to blow up your houses and shoot your friends, would you be bothered by their SNOBBISHNESS???? jens -- Reachable as ....allegra![rayssd,rlgvax]!ccieng5!jbf
