Somewhere this week on another Arafat thread there was a long article about his sexual proclivities (bi-sexual) and the long-time rumor that he'd contracted HIV.
It was revealed in various places over the years.....in the book RED HORIZONS by Ion Pacepa he writes that the KGB had files on Arafat having sexual relations with a teacher & his body guards.
