He'd be dead already by the IDF if they kept the same honor code as the PLO. Make no mistake, the IDF had several opportunities to end him by means of a large ordinance. Many innocent lives would have been lost to positioning of Arafat. You see, the Israelis won't hesitate to kill two of their fighters for every one Soldier lost. When the lives of innocents are at stake, they cannot however react as perhaps their enemies would. Sharon was a "tanker". He will not hold back much longer.
