Nobel Peace Prize Laureate Yasser Arafat was a master of the big lie. Since he invented global terrorism with the founding of the Fatah terror organization in 1959, Arafat successfully portrayed himself as a freedom fighter while introducing the world to passenger jet hijackings, schoolhouse massacres and embassy takeovers.
To cultivate the myth of his innocence Arafat ordered his Fatah terror cells to operate under pseudonyms. In the early 1970's he renamed several Fatah murder squads the Black September Organization while publicly claiming that they were "breakaway" units completely unrelated to Fatah or to himself.
In 2000, as he launched the current Palestinian jihad, he repeated the process by renaming Fatah terror cells the Aksa Martyr Brigades and then claiming that they were completely unrelated to Fatah or to himself. This fiction too, has been successful in spite of the fact that all Aksa Martyr Brigades terrorists are members of Fatah and most are members of Palestinian Authority official militias who receive their salaries, guns and marching orders from Fatah.
Last week, with the quiet release of a 33-year-old US State Department cable, a good chunk of the edifice of his great lie was destroyed.
ON MARCH 1, 1973, eight Fatah terrorists, operating under the Black September banner stormed the Saudi Arabian Embassy in Khartoum, Sudan during a farewell party for the US Embassy's Charges d'Affaires George Curtis Moore. The terrorists took Moore, US ambassador Cleo Noel, Belgian Charges d'Affairs Guy Eid and two Arab diplomats hostage. They demanded that the US, Israel, Jordan and Germany release PLO and Baader-Meinhof Gang terrorists, including Robert F. Kennedy's Palestinian assassin Sirhan Sirhan and Black September commander Muhammed Awadh (Abu Daud), from prison in exchange for the hostages' release.

With all due respect, an even longer-running lie is that Republicans opposed the 1964 Civil Rights Act and 1965 Voting Rights Act.

He got too close to some radioactive naked teenage boys.
How many would trade places with Arafat? Would Stalin with Hilter, or Hitler with Arafat, or vice versa? Perhaps everybody aforementioned with Hussein?
Arafat being the alleged "master of the big lie", except that Arafat's - as will everybody in his company - going to be pissed when he see's in the light of day that little piece of garbage that deceived Man throughout history. Satan will one day be akin to a denuded cat that has been drenched in water; this will most undoubtedly piss it off (when this happens it'll have no ability however whatsoever for retribution).
Nobody's going to be tipping their hats to it; realization at what sort of con they've been a victim of will prove most aggravating, frustrating, infuriating (and will only cause that much more of wailing, hand-wringing, gnashing of teeth, et ali). Despite the vehement, emphatic and vociferous retribution that will result of that revelation: no small iota of comfort shall be found for any engaged in that.
I am so glad Arafat is dead. I hated the man since 1972 Olympics.
