PARIS - BULLETIN: Al-Jazeera television and The Associated Press are reporting that Yasser Arafat is dead.

Good riddance to a despicable scumbag!
Fox is reporting he will lie in state for a few days. I thought they had to bury him on the day he died, a religion thing, I believe.
What religion? The religion of killing innocent Jews? and Americans? Woo Hooo, the wicked witch is dead, the wicked witch is dead..............
DEAR MSM - PLEASE DO NOT COVER AND TREAT THIS "FUNERAL" WITH THE SAME PROPORTION AS ANY HEAD OF STATE. THIS IS A T-E-R-R-O-R-I-S-T WHO KILLED INNOCENT PEOPLE.
WE DON'T HONOR TERRORISTS!!!!!!!!!
Not the original terrorist, but certainly the founder of the modern Islamic terrorist technique.
Drudge isnt't even bothering with it.
Gee, the Palestinians are following their interim Constitution. Some guy named Patooey (phonetic spelling) will take over as interim prime minister for 60 days and then they will hold elections. November 11, 2004 + 60 days = January 10, 2005. Isn't that the same day there will be elections in Iraq?
Thank God. Now maybe Castro will join him.
Jimmy Carter is probably cryng and the Clintns have lost their MOST FREQUENT White House guest!!!
They should have gone to Iraq with the scumbag seems there's a hospital on every corner.
The final credits of "Weekend At Yassar's" is rolling?
I wonder if he will get virgin boys or girls?
(also confirmed by Fox News, MSNBC and CNN)
Please FReepmail me if you want on or off my infrequent miscellaneous ping list.
YEEEEEEEEEEHAW!!!!! Wonderful news....& the Palestinians can't make him a "martyr" by saying the Israelis killed him! (Well.....I'm sure they're gonna try to find SOME excuse to blame Israel nonetheless).
This is a historical event we ALL should celebrate. Fellow FReepers, please write to the Jerusalem Post & other Israeli newspapers, telling them they should be in much more of a celebratory mood than we are in the US, because of how he has terrorized their people for decades.
C'mon, Israel: PARTY UP!!!!!
Maybe they could send Al Fraken!
Yes, but which cicle of hell is he going to? Time to break out the Dante!
At the announcement on MSNBC of Arafat's death, the news person called him a freedom fighter.
Hay! you DUMMIES AT MSNBC, HE WAS A TERRORIST.
Thank God he's DEAD.
ARAFAT IS DEAD
