Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat angrily rejected Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak's declaration of a time out from the peace process on Sunday, telling reporters that Barak could go to hell. “My response is that our people are continuing on the road to Jerusalem, capital of the independent Palestinian state, whether (Barak) accepts or does not accept, let him go to hell. Arafat was speaking on his return to Gaza after a two-day emergency summit of Arab states in Egypt which condemned Israeli violence against Palestinians, but failed to agree on any punitive measures against the Jewish state. Barak announced earlier on Sunday that Israel would take a time out from the seven-year-old Middle East peace process because of the deteriorating security situation. Bureau Report
