Just for the record, there's another policy that says you should mind your tone when speaking to others and have some modicum of respect instead of going off like someone came at you guns blazing.
There's no reason for such an appalling level of emotional response on a forum such as this where intellectual discourse is king.
Put the title back to what NY times has it "How Arafat Eluded Israel’s Assassination Machine".
The policy is: Just because you happened to be the one to submit it, does not mean you get to pick the important part to put in the title.
For the record, the title right now is the very inflammatory: "Israel came close to assassinating Arafat by downing a commercial passenger jet".
