More Palestinians Saying "Enough"
(Chicago Sun-Times/AP) Karin Laub - A slowly swelling chorus of Palestinian leaders and opinion-makers says taking up arms against Israel was a mistake and must stop. The latest voice is that of Jibril Rajoub, once the most powerful security chief in the West Bank, who says he warned Yasser Arafat 10 days after the start of the uprising that allowing armed gangs to take over would lead to disaster. ''Some of our people made terrible mistakes, and for this reason we paid a lot,'' Rajoub said.
