#5 Every time he feels the flames of hell he comes back. Probably trying to negotiate.

#6 come back as a zombie

This is a serious matter. When they stick him in the ground, they need to whack off his head or drive a stake thru his heart or something. Otherwise, his festering undead corpse will walk the earth forever condeming the Paleostinians to a life of perpetual misery, poverty and lack of statehood. Not that they don't deserve it.

#8 I've been too busy lately to comment much on Arafat's demises, but I check every day with a smile on my face, not because I hate the man, but because one of the most terrible men of the 20th century is finally on the way to answering for all of his crimes. Mao, Stalin, Hitler, Hussein, Pol Pot, Idi Amin, Ho Chi Minh - the list of terrible men is very lengthy, and I would hesitate to put Arafat too high up there, but the fact remains that he led a people to destitution while filling his coffers by swindling the world while those he waged war upon were condemned for defending themselves. He made a career out of killing the innocent and stealing from those he "represented." Stalin, for all of his atrocities, had the trains running on time. Arafat doesn't even have that. That's not a defense of Stalin, but an indicator of just how much of a loser Arafat is - death, poverty, and a shithole of hatred and lies and poor economic prospects are his legacy. He could only destroy.

My personal suspicion is that, while God must have dismissed Arafat a long time ago, even Satan doesn't want him polluting hell.

#9 What - again?

Jeez - Arafish can't even die right.

#10 I commend to your attention this thoughtful commentary on Arafat's metaphysical state.

#11 AP

'The Palestinian foreign minister, Nabil Shaath, said the 75-year-old Arafat is suffering from kidney and liver failure. Arafat's brain is working only partially because of bleeding, and all his organs except for heart and lungs "are not functioning well," Shaath said in Ramallah, West Bank. '
