                    [Title] => War of attrition
                    [Summary] => Filipinos, still preoccupied with the continuing story of the late Rico Yan and his ex Claudine Barretto, may not be interested in what’s happening in the Middle East. But that region is host to millions of Filipino workers, with 50,000 in Israel alone. That should be enough reason for us to be gravely concerned about the war of attrition between the Israelis and Palestinians, or more accurately, between old foes Ariel Sharon and Yasser Arafat. Those two guys look like boxers who’ve beaten each other to a pulp in a fight that’s bound to end up in a draw.
