How fitting for Arafat to have this much chicanery surrounding his death.
For the better part of the last 50 years, Europe, the U.N. and even the United States seemed all too willing to put lipstick on this ass, and deny that he was a pig.
Folks, Arafat was a pig. From his time as the leader of the Palestinian Liberation Organization when he was undeniably a ruthless terrorist, to the time he died, he was considered by many to still be planning events causing the deaths of the Israelis or their friends.
Most of his life, people lied about him and chose to look the other way with regard to his true nature.
Today people are comicly lying about his physical health. The man has likely been dead for about a week now. I don't know how they could manage it, but I'm seriously contemplating how the Palestinians are going to spin this man's life, when he doesn't have one any longer.
I'd advise the Israelis to guard the cave door on this one. You just know the Palestinians are going to say he is risen. It goes without saying.
Exactly!
He's just sleeping, he's not in a coma.

All too appropriate that it can be sung in French, too...
Is Baghdad Bob running this show?
At least the bird had beautiful plummage.
Not at all mean-spirited when you consider what he advocated, it's hard to look mean in comparison.
I love the classics. My lovely wife got me the entire Monty Python's Flying Circus series on DVD for Christmas. I will have to watch that skit this evening.
bump for the Dead Parrot sketch.
