RAMALLAH, West Bank (CNN) Palestinian election officials on Monday declared Mahmoud Abbas the president-elect of the Palestinian Authority, perhaps beginning a new era after the death of his predecessor, Yasser Arafat. In choosing Abbas over five other candidates, voters elected a man who believes the only way to peace with Israel is through negotiation, but who has campaigned for the votes of Palestinian militants, many of whom continue to reject Israel's right to exist and who have refused to stop their attacks on Israelis despite his appeals. Abbas, also known as Abu Mazen, will be under enormous pressure, not only from Israel but also from the international community, to lead the Palestinians in a new direction and end the latest Palestinian intifada, or "uprising," that began in September 2000.

To his supporters he was the only man capable of keeping Palestinian hopes alive and at the forefront of global consciousness. To critics he was an inveterate terrorist who failed his people. He was in equal measures national treasure and national liability for many Palestinians. While raising their hopes of independence he was also seen by some as one of the impediments to Palestinian democracy and civil society. Early radicalism Yasser Arafat was born Muhammad Abdul Rahman Abdul Raouf Arafat al-Qudwa al-Husseini on 24 August 1929 in the Egyptian capital, Cairo. His father, a Palestinian merchant living in Egypt, died during the first Arab-Israeli war 20 years later. Arafat's youth is surrounded by uncertainty. Little was known of Arafat's upbringing He claimed to have been born in Jerusalem but his Egyptian accent always revealed his Cairo upbringing.
