PARIS Even after Yasser Arafat's death Thursday morning, French health officials continued their stony silence about exactly what disease killed the Palestinian leader. And so, the man who lived so much of his life simply and in the public eye, died mysteriously, surrounded by secrecy.
After two weeks, the medical databases at Percy Military Training Hospital in Clamart must be crammed with information about Arafat's condition - scans, biopsies, reams of blood test results - that would have defined for doctors within minutes the condition of Arafat's kidneys, liver and lungs. But these remain top secret.

Saw that too, that guy wasn't having any of that, nothing subtle about it !
If the $22Mill/yr for Suha reports are true, I hope EU reduce their donations by at least that amount.

It's obvious to me, and I hope it's obvious to Hamas and Hezbollah, that the French killed him. And maybe negligently. One Palestinian official noted Arafat was not in a coma - until AFTER he received anesthetics for some procedures.

Bill Richardson said tonight on Fox that he went to see Arafat in 2000 and he was sick then.

Look at the guy, in the middle photo, trying to pry Arafatback's finger open so he can go wash.

What really casued Yessir Arseisfat's death was this: he had been so fueled by hate for Jews and so bitter over his inability to annihilate them that when his feeble mind started to go mushy and he couldn't remeber from day to day what he hated and whom he wanted to murder, his constitution couldn't take being awash with calmness ... Arse died like a fish out of water, he suffocated for lack of bitter hatred to spew.

Dying from some disease would signify to Muslim religious extremists that Arafat had fallen from grace with Allah.

If it was AIDS, maybe he passed it onto the many world leaders he has exchanged siliva with over the years. Then this guy is in serious trouble:
