This should allow Arafat to get some shut-eye.

BOOM, BOOM, OUt go the lights!

[isthisnickcool]

He is lucky. It's not as near dark for Arafat as it is for some Israelis murdered by Arafats gang today.

That or a Full Metal Jacket inserted in the forehead......

Making bombs by candle light can be dangerous!

[AmericaUnited]

Damn! I thought you meant the real lights out, as in worm food, tulip time, etc., etc.

[CWRWinger]

No A/C, and it's hot over there.
But Mr. Arafat, it's still not as hot as the place you are probably going.

[TomGuy]

Arafat wakes up in the morning, switches on the lights...nothing but darkness: "O my Allah, I've died. Damn, no 72 virgins....hehe, at least no flames." [Akmar lights a match to light a candle, hears screams from Arafat.]

[calmseas]

Not fair! Teaser headline! I thought Arafat had gone to that great vast desert wasteland in the sky (or wherever).

Lights Out for Arafat

_________________________________

Terrible. Now Arafat won't be able to tell which hand he's using to wipe his butt.

[Scott from the Left Coast]

Oh H3ll! I thought they'd put Arafat's lights out. You know as in lights out forever....yeah, you know.

Dern.

[Lion's Cub]

Now they need to jam those cell phones. No doubt he's already whining to the UN/EU.

This should get interesting with that "fact-finding" mission scheduled in a few hours...

Israeli Bulldozers Destroy Arafat's Convoy Cars

GAZA, Apr 27, 2002 (Xinhua via COMTEX) -- Israeli bulldozers Saturday destroyed seven armored Mercedes cars that Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat uses in his presidential motorcade, official Palestinian sources reported from inside Arafat's office in Ramallah.

The sources said that big Israeli army bulldozers drove into Arafat's compound and began to destroy the cars of the presidential convoy, or what the Palestinians call "Al Muqataa."

Arafat's office staff said that the bulldozers also destroyed the presidential guards' vans and Cherokee jeeps that were parking in the special garage in Arafat's compound.

Meanwhile, Palestinian National Authority (PNA) Minister of Information Yasser Abed Rabbo slammed the Israeli army for putting loudspeakers around Arafat's compound.

The use of those loudspeakers to produce annoying sounds directed at Arafat's main office is "provocative and criminal Israeli army action," the minister charged.

He said that carrying out such an action "approves that Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon had failed to get rid of President Arafat and break his determination to continue his struggle for the Palestinian independent state."

Ah! You mean the electricity is off. I hoped you meant that the worlds ugliest terrorist had 'assumed room terperature' & was put on the 'wrong side of the lawn'.

[let freedom sing]

Why believe he's still there-- even Usama left his part of the middle east. They're probably sunning on the Riviera or high rollers in Monte Carlo-- or secret guests at the Klintoon estate in upstate NY.

[RedBloodedAmerican]

Lets hope he doesnt cut himself shaving. Sure would hate to see him lose any blood.

[Davea]

You know this could be sorta dangerous for Arafat. If shooting starts and the lights are out "accidents" can happen. Who would know what one was firing at? Unless of course you had infrared gear :-)

[doug from upland]

I wonder if Gray Davis is responsible.

[cake_crumb]

Yasser, sitting in the dark, with only vermin ridden "peace activists" and his own homocide bombers for company. Bet he's too scared to light a candle because he doesn't want to present a "target".

WHAT A CHEERY THOUGHT!

[N00dleN0gg1n]

Have they turned off the water yet? That could get *really* irritating.

[cake_crumb]

Toddling off to bed now. Thanks for the great post. Praying that Yasser's eardrums rupture. Soon.
