Arafat is responsible in part for a large part of the current mess.
He should be marginalized, and eventually pushed aside.
I'm not sure if removing him from Israel would serve any purpose. He probably isn't directly involved in directing the violence. His main responsibility is that he is standing aside, or even encouraging (on the sidelines) the terrorist violence that has derailed the palestinian peace process.
Not that Israel isn't at fault. Don't expect the Arabs to fight a civil war if you arn't willing to give the settlers the kick in the butt that they deserve.
