Don't know what type - But its Reversable???
Did Baghdad Bob get a new job or what?
Die, murderer, die. Hell is waiting for you...
Arafat can't get dead-dead until they're finished writing the screenplay.
he's dead Jim
They are wetting themselves trying to figure out how they are going handle the announcement -- and the immediate aftermath -- of his death.
He may be dead now, but they won't admit it if he was...until they think they can do what they think they need to do. There also the question of the hundreds of millions of dollars -- (near a billion has been reported, at times) and it's control that would decide who takes over....terrorists or "moderates"
For how long could they keep Arafat's death "a secret"....????
Sometimes patients are put into a drug induced coma while they heal, or as they say, to perform tests. In other words he is so weak, they needed to do this to perform these tests.
This is ridiculous, however, and the secrecy and misinformation surrounding his illness and living-undead state is positively perverse.
At this juncture, I'm inclined to believe he's "brain dead" but his body is on life support until a transition (financial and political) can be made. This fits well with the vast majority of the reports: he's both dead and not dead.
My ignorance on his customs likely runs deep but I understand an autopsy would be out of the question and, as is true for an Orthodox Jew, by example, he'd need to be buried within 24 hrs.
Somebody shoot the bastard!
The Pallies are probably trying to find his hidden bank accounts and drain them before they announce his death -- because after word gets out that he's roasting in Hell, the accounts slam shut, don't they?
The news of his death was greatly exaggerated.
It is obvious that Arafat has some severe illness that has already been properly diagnosed. We will not be permitted to know all the facts until billions of dollars directly controlled by Arafat (in stolen US money... Thank you Clinton and Carter) have been moved into other Swiss accounts.
Suha is currently negotiating with the second line thug/thieves who run the criminal enterprise known as the "Palestinean Authority."
I suppose Kerry has his bags packed to attend the funeral!
If George Bush would lift the ban on Stem Cell Research. Arafat would get up and walk! (/sarcasm)
Then how do you know it's reversible? So if it's reversible, then reverse it.
No their REAL problem is that under Islamic Law they have to bury him within 24 hrs of 'death' - and given that Arafat stated that he wanted to be buried on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem, the PA is trying to figure a way to finesse this without inviting massive Israeli interference
Arafat's going to be the Palestinian's answer to Elvis,
They'll say he got taken up to the spaceship.
There'll be 'Arafat Impersonators' everywhere.
This is nothing but a cruel attempt to pull the wool
over the eyes of the Palestinian people.
Well, Imus said that Arafat has AIDS. And one of the other guys said he caught it from MONKEY sex!
Isn't this awful? hehe
I didn't KNOW that Arafat even HAD a monkey. hehe!
This is almost funny!
Hey, terrorist...yes...over here.............It's called DEATH!
The doctors in France seem to be the kind that John Edwards dreams about!
"He's dead, he's not dead. He's in a coma, but we can reverse it. He's lost conciousness, no wait, he's conscious."
Wonder if the French have laws for malpractice, LOL!
