Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat, 75, has lost consciousness, Israeli public radio reported, quoting Palestinian sources.
He lost consciousness "several hours ago", it said.
Arafat's senior adviser Nabil Abu Rudeina, meanwhile, confirmed that a team of doctors was examining the veteran Palestinian leader.
"A team of Tunisian and Palestinian doctors is examining the president," Abu Rudeina said in a statement read out to journalists in front of Arafat's headquarters in the West Bank town of Ramallah.
He said Arafat "needs more rest because of his fatigue" and added that Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak and Jordan's King Abdullah II had offered to send doctors.
A source close to the Palestinian Authority said earlier that Mahmoud Abbas, the PLO's No 2, and premier Ahmed Qorei were also at the bedside of Arafat, 75, who officially has been suffering from a severe bout of flu.

People screamed about Cosell, but he was if nothing else entertaining...
Jim Healy (L.A. radio) sure made a career out of "Howid" sound bytes.

That's what I wondered. He endorsed Kerry. Why do the libs like to believe that Iran financed Bush's campaign? I know. Because the libs are moore-ons. Right?

For Arafart to die in his sleep would be a travesty of justice.

To: Truth Table
Looks like he has been dealing with Russians, must have caught the Russian Flu. Wait for sKerry to blame Bush for it.

The only thing sickening about Arafat death will be watching Jenning, et-al weep over his death.

Healy's dead now, but he had just tons of soundbytes of Howard...but his creme de la creme collection was the obscenity laced Lasorda tapes. I'll try and run up a link - hilarious.
