1.) Twenty-five years ago, on Nov. 4, 1979, the Iranian hostage crisis began as militants stormed the United States Embassy in Tehran, seizing its occupants. For some of the hostages, it was the start of 444 days of captivity.
2.) In 1995, Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin was assassinated by a right-wing Israeli minutes after attending a festive peace rally.
Maybe that's why Arafat's death is in limbo.
Can't have Arafat have the same death anniversary as Rabin, now can we?
What a coincidence. Hmmmmm.
