Roger Simon, in a front page Opinion section article (Oct. 11–17, A13) clearly presents the question of “Hamas Attacks: Who’s Responsible?” and wonders what PLO leader Yassar Arafat was really thinking when agreeing to the Oslo Accords. Mr. Simon self-answers that he cannot really know. But the answer couldn’t be clearer.
Once Arafat was back in the Arab world, he was challenged on how he could ever make an agreement with Israel. His response on Arab television was one word—“Al-Hudaybiyah.” That silenced his critics.
