Arafat Told Me He Went Along with Oslo Accords "to Bring the PLO Back to Palestine"
To mark the 25th anniversary of the Oslo Accords, Palestinian journalist Abd Al-Bari Atwan [pictured] revealed in Rai Al-Yawm on Sep. 13 that PLO leader Yasser Arafat told him he did not believe in the Oslo path, but that he was going along with it because it was an opportunity "to bring the PLO and the resistance back to Palestine" and to drive out the Jews.
Atwan also noted that Arafat had cooperated with, funded, and armed members of Hamas, and had coordinated with Hizbullah to dispatch ships bringing weapons to the Gaza coast.
