Yasser Arafat "dead" - Palestinian sources say

PARIS, Nov 9 (Reuters) - Palestinian President Yasser Arafat is dead, senior Palestinian political sources said on Tuesday.

The information from sources close to Arafat could not immediately be confirmed.

"He is dead," one of the sources close to Arafat said in Paris, where Arafat has been lying in a coma at a French hospital. Officials in the West Bank said they had not been informed that Arafat was dead.



The only difference between Arafat and Bin Laden is PR.

Arafat Burial Plans Done in Time for Final Death
(2004-11-05) -- After Yassir Arafat's final death, Palestinian officials said today that tradition will determine the location of his final resting place.

Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon has not yet agreed to the funeral plan or location, but Palestinian authorities said they expect no roadblocks since many of their other heroes have had similar ceremonies.

"Chairman Arafat will be placed in a Tel Aviv city bus and driven to a crowded market," said an unnamed spokesman for the Hamas social services agency. "There we will conduct the traditional scattering of his fragments. According to protocol, no friends or family will attend this ceremony."

U.N. Secretary-General Kofi Annan expressed his sympathy to the Palestinian people.

"I have grieved each time Chairman Arafat has died," said Mr. Annan, "and I know the last death will be even harder to take than the previous ones. But I'm comforted that he will go to his rest according to the custom of his people."

At least Arafat has a plan.

When he's gone, he's gone. No celebration, just good riddance and forget about the rest. The PA and Sudha can fight over the illgotten gains and what to do with the body. The world will soon forget his passing and he will not be missed.

I heard they're waiting to pull the plug.

Anyways:


Ding dong! the witch is dead. which old witch? the wicked witch!
Ding dong! the wicked witch is dead.
Wake up - sleepy head, rub your eyes, get out of bed.
Wake up, the wicked witch is dead. she’s gone where the goblins go,
Below - below - below. yo-ho, let’s open up and sing and ring the bells out.
Ding dong’ the merry-oh, sing it high, sing it low.
Let them know
The wicked witch is dead!

I don't think the wifeo will pull the plug till she locks up that $billion or so that disappeared last year. Isn't she a piece of work? Oh, she also wants the jet . Women Laughing .

Paris can have her.

He may have to be room temperature and stiff before they finally admit it.

Arafat has been brain dead since last week. What is holding up the announcement is that his wife Suha is the only person who can authorize disconnecting the life support machines from his body. She is using that power to extort money from the PA leadership.
The PA needs Arafat dead so they can move on to the next government, the only question is how much Suha gets for pulling the plug.

What a ghoulish end for the formost terrorist in the world. There is a God after all!

His death really resembled the Kerry campaign. He was dead before he died. Another flip flop. Smile
