Arafat in His Final Days

Amid reports of rapidly deteriorating health, four ambulances were seen this afternoon entering the compound of Palestinian Authority Chairman Yasser Arafat.

A spokesman, Nabil Abu Rudeineh, dismissed reports Arafat, 74, had been taken to a hospital, but another senior official said he has seen the Palestinian leader's health slide over the past two weeks, according to the Jerusalem Post.

"I don't think it's the flu as some people say," the senior official said. "The president hasn't been feeling well for some time, and his health seems to be worsening."

Abu Rudeineh insisted Arafat merely was exhausted and was recovering, and the senior official said he possibly could have picked up viruses from all the people with whom he has shaken hands and exchanged kisses lately. Thousands have come to his compound since Israel announced its decision to "remove" him.

But Palestinians say they never have seen Arafat look as ill as he did Sunday when he met with new PA Prime Minister Ahmed Qureia.

"You can see that he's very ill," said someone who attended the meeting, according to the Post. "He can hardly speak. Something bad is happening to him."

The decision to bar reporters and visitors from Arafat's compound this evening added fuel to the speculation, the Jerusalem paper said.

Last week, after a team of doctors was summoned from Jordan to examine him, a journalist in Ramallah quoted a senior PA official as saying that "Arafat's days are numbered," the Post reported.

The doctors were called in after Arafat complained of severe abdominal pain and had been vomiting for several days. Aides suspected he had been poisoned. The Jordanian medical team concluded he was only mildly ill and needed rest.

The Jerusalem daily, citing PA officials, said Arafat's illness could be linked to his decision to declare a state of emergency in the West Bank and Gaza Strip.

"It's possible that he doesn't want to leave a vacuum behind," said one PA official, the Post reported. "He must have discussed the issue with Abu Ala [Qureia]."

In a final gesture, Arafat gives the world the finger...

[TopQuark]

They will riot declaring that Israel killed him by some secret weapon or poison.

Ha!

You don't have to be a wonder-brain to figure this out.

All rethoric aside, it has never been Arafatty's intention to die for the Palestinian cause. Dying is something for the young idiots to do. When the going gets tought, Arafatty looks for a bolthole.

Problem is, he has sort of boxed himself in with his "I ain't gonna leave" proclamations and he is getting increasingly worried because he know that Israel is just itching to finally stamp "paid" on his long outstanding account.

The solution? Simple.

Fake a stroke, get sick, arranged to get sent to the hospital and then maybe another friendly clinic in Arab lands. Once there, effect a miraculous recovery and continue as before -- from safety.

The bastard should not be allowed to die without seeing the bloody stumps of his own blown off limbs, and the holes in his torso from rat poison-tipped nails driven into his flesh.

Whatever he dies of, I want it to hurt like his victims were hurt.

[mass55th]

Four ambulances? The only reason I can think that he'd need four ambulances is if he was drawn and quartered...one quarter for each ambulance. Ahh! If only it could prove to be true!

**and his health seems to be worsening."**

Baited breath waiting here!

Must be all the prayers from Christian and Jews for a solution to the problems in the Middle East. God works in mysterious ways.

" ... picked up viruses ... from exchanged kisses."

This ought to give his Muslim competitors an idea.

May God grant Arafat the Truth of His Light,
A.S.A.P!

[Argus]

It's well known that the Palestinians use ambulances to move weapons and explosives around, as well as their "fighters". They're probably just delivering Yasser's reinforcements.

That said, hope the reports of the Chairman's ill health are true. It's long past time for this POS to be gathered to Satan.

I'll believe the old rump-ranger is dead when I see pictures of his cold, lifeless body.

He might actually be sick, he could also be planning a bug-out because he thinks that this time Israel is really going to whack him or he could be fasking a terminal illness in order to play for time and allow the dust from this latest suicide bombing to settle down.

DIE PIG DIE!!!!

If he just keels over does that mean that he misses out on the 72 virgins-du-jour?

There is a special spot reserved for him in hell.

Arafat wouldn't have any use for 72 dark-eyed houris; as a matter of fact he wouldn't have use for even one, except as a housekeeper.
