They don't have room to open the door and bring the body out because of the crowd. They need something like a 50-foot clearance.

All 3 networks are carrying footage out of muqata, The pallies have stormed the compound and they fear a mass riot and maybe The taking of arafat to Jersualem .. Sounds of gunshots heard.. Its actually more like 10's of thousands
that was definatly one of my all time favorite episodes of the reverance they showed to their great butt plug.
the sight of his body toppling out of his coffin was a hoot.
these people are idiots.
Note to Ms. Mitchell: Israel's really going to be able to reason with these people. Yeah. Right. Uh huh...
"If one of those stray bullets hit the fuel tank on one of the choopers....its all over for this crowd."
May God forgive me for saying this but, one could only hope. They are animals in my book. All those bullets have to come down somewhere, don't they? I just don't understand these "people" and now I'm more convinced that I don't want to...
Fits right into that "ugly" theme, though.
CNN reporter Michael Holmes who is there, says they only have to get the body about 100-150 feet to the burial place. Good luck!
Thanks...

what a mess
nice pics. They are trying to form a human chain to create a path for the ~50 yds to the gravesite.

What a bunch of animals... This is a show of respect??? No wonder Palestinians wont have their own country...they cant even do a decent security detail.
Whereas I just wanted to live to see this. ;)
Seriously thinking here... if one bomb was dropped on this area you would really wipe out lets say... 1/2 of the terrorism in the world. Here gathered are the breeders of it. Sound like a good idea?
I was just thinking the same thing!
Israel won't do it.
Darn it.
Reminds me of when I was a teen in California and waking up in the morning going downstairs to find an invasion of ants thick and massive in a thick line all the way from the front door 20 feet away up to the kitchen counter top just for a small crumb.
Whoa they are backing up a van into the crowd.
Bump
