"Haven't found a link yet, but Christiane Amanpour on CNN just reported live by phone that Arafat has dementia and leukemia. She reported that the Arafat era is over. The dementia is so advanced, doctors say Arafat is no longer in controll of his faculties. Report was about 09:35 EDT, Sat. I'll come back and provide a link when I find one."
Last night they would only say "blood infection".
Translation -- he is dying and we don't know what else to say.
I hope he'll take Castro with him when he goes......
Dementia as in, he's a drunk? His brain is pickled.
I watched my mother die from this. She was gone mentally about a week before she actually died.
Being called demented by the French has got to be near the very bottom of things that can happen to a person.
>>>Arafat has dementia
THIS is news?
About a year ago there was a report that he was having mental problems and they thought it might be Dementia but that the PLO did not know what to do. He had complete authority. This opens the door for new leadership which is hopefully more moderate in its positions.
How would the French or cnn be able to tell whether that thug is demented or not?
They themselves are pretty far gone...
So who does Arafat's condition help???
In related news the French foreign minister arrived at his hospital bed to surrender this morning and declared Arafat "President for Life of France"
Bill CLinton: First President to have a known terrorist in the White House.""
Didn't Clinton meet more often with Arafat than he did with the head of the CIA?
Looks like we all agree on the diagnosis here.
Nothing to see, move along
:)
He looked demented in the pic I saw here yesterday.
The world.
LOL!
You make a good point. Maybe there's a crazy scale from 1 to 100. He was at 89, and now he's hittin' the top of the pole at 100.
Is Christianne able to control her deep grief?
I won't give him that out. He was in full control of his faculties while ordering huge numbers of Jewish men, women and children killed. A lifetime of blood on his hands can't be excused by his illness.
