The elections (the last ones have been kept in 1996), like have specified the same Erakat speaking in vece about Arafat, make part of a so-called program of reforms of the "100 days". But Erakat also has emphasized that the reforms have been already under way from some months to this part and that has been worked to the organization of the next elections already in the course of last the two months.
To the question if Arafat will be introduced like candidate also for the next elections, Erakat has answered that "it will touch he to decide" .
Physically, he presented a dreadful sight. He dragged himself about painfully and clumsily, throwing his torso forward and dragging his legs after him from his living room to the conference room of the bunker. He had lost his sense of balance; if he was detained on the brief journey (seventy-five to a hundred feet), he had to sit down on one of those benches that been placed along either wall for this purpose, or else cling to the person he was talking to... His eyes were bloodshot; although all documents intended for him were typed out in letters three times ordinary size, on special "Fuhrer typewriters," he could read them only with strong glasses. Saliva frequently dripped from the corners of his mouth.
Translation - They've taken away Yasser's bullets.
Arafat, over the last 10 years, was just a storefront for Pali butchers... a flimsy veil of legitimacy.
General (gag) Arafat is about to start getting the early bird special at the "Terrorist Retirement Village"
I dunno. I always found Arafat to be alarming and undelicate. And so howlingly insane that any any change would be unlikely.
Whatever he has, I just hope it's painful. Extremely.
Rx; Arafat:
Take 666 capsules 3 times a day. Tomorrow you will feel right as rain.
Very European phrasing.
Very Italian.
You may not be doing it right.
