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
I have been wondering if he is dead and the French are attempting to aid the Palestinians by sneaking the body back into Israel for a secret burial in Jerusalem.
