File under: PLO

#1 I don't think the Israelis did it, Polonium is not very Kosher. They probably would have used some really nice quickly metabolizing pharmaceutical like the ones that nurse in Massachusetts used on 20 some odd people.

Polonium is a KGB signature.

If not the KGB, perchance Iran?

Anyway, if he was poisoned, there are organizations in "Palestine" with more to gain from his death than Israel.

#2 Good old Suha Arafat. I miss her, dammit. In the same way I miss hating J.R.

#5 French experts have ruled out that the 2004 death of iconic Paleostinian leader Yasser Arafat was the result of poisoning.

An unfortunate finding. I understand poisoning can be a painful way to go.

#6 One should not look a gift horse in the mouth too closely.

#7 It's relative matter. When you compare it to his foul life, how foul could his death be?

#8 Reference #6. Gift horse indeed. I can easily think of a half-dozen or so political 'leaders' whom I'd like to see join him.

#9 re #8 Beso, you are either much more benevolent or much less imaginative than I am.

Half dozen? I'd have a hard time keeping it below 20 just in our own country. 8^(

#10 God has a full plate Alan. I try to keep my prayers specific and narrowly focused. But yes, new ideas,'imagination' etc, have been a lifelong challenge. Every man should know his limitations...someone once said.

#11 AIDS?

I think the French were too discreet to say so.
