Wikipedia:Theories of Arafat's Death

The article reviews every possible cause of death for Arafat, AIDS being one of many possibilities, including that in fact his death was caused by AIDS.

AIDS In September 2005, based on obtained Arafat records, an Israeli AIDS expert claimed that Arafat bore all the symptoms of AIDS, while The New York Times claimed it was highly unlikely that Arafat died from AIDS.[22] and John Loftus reported on ABC radio that Arafat had died of AIDS.

According to Loftus, the CIA had knowledge of his condition, and convinced Israel not to assassinate him and wait for his inevitable death of the disease, since the subsequent widespread connotations of the disease with homosexuality would discredit him.[59]

An article published in a number of American news publications rejected the assertion that Arafat had AIDS, stating, "An Israeli infectious disease specialist said he would have performed the test, if only to be thorough and to refute the rumors that surrounded the case. He said news accounts during Arafat's illness made him strongly suspect that Arafat had AIDS.

But after studying the records, he said that was improbable, given the sudden onset of the intestinal troubles", though AIDS-associated opportunistic infections such as cryptosporidiosis can begin in this way. This same article also states that it is "highly unlikely" that Arafat had died from poisoning, and further asserts that Arafat had died from a stroke linked to an "underlying infection."[60][61]

Ahmed Jibril the head of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine-General Command, stated that a senior member of the PA delegation told him Arafat died of AIDS, what he was told was 'Frankly, the French gave us the medical report and the cause of Arafat's death was AIDS.'"[62]

Arafat's personal doctor, Dr. Ashraf Al-Kurdi, stated publicly on several occasions that Arafat contained the HIV virus, and that Arafat died of AIDS.[63]

Later in another interview on Arabic network, Al Jazeera, he was cut off from the live broadcast, and was quoted as saying "someone injected HIV into Arafat’s body before he died and that the real cause of the Palestinian leader’s death was poison."[64]

In 2012, investigations based on documentation provided by Suha Arafat found that there was no symptoms or signs suggesting AIDS.
