The State Department has finally admitted (document has just been declassified) that Arafat was behind the 1973 murder of two Americans in Sudan by the Black September terrorist group. They stormed the Saudi embassy in Khartoum, taking American hostages and eventually killing them.

[VoodooEconomics]

The Khartoum operation was planned and carried out with the full knowledge and personal approval of Yasir Arafat, Chairman of the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO), and the head of Fatah. Fatah representatives based in Khartoum participated in the attack, using a Fatah vehicle to transport the terrorists to the Saudi Arabian Embassy.

This should come as a shock to no one.

[jackieaxe]

Why did my government covering up for this terrorist Arafat? Disgusting to read. A head shaker.

[JRios1968]

Other declassified State Dept documents include the shocking revelations that water is wet, the sun is hot, and ice cream goes well with birthday cake.

Absolutely Disgusting

[Argus]

Clinton's favorite White House guest? How could that be?

(sarcasm off)

[housewife101]

My only question...did Clinton know this while he was best friends with Arafat?? If I remember right he was at the white house more than any other "heads of state." Of course....I am pretty sure that I know the answer to this one..

Is that what he got the Nobel Peace Prize for?

[samtheman]

Is this what the hildebeast and halfbright gave him big fat wet kisses for?

Rudy's expulsion of Yurafart from Lincoln Center in 1995 keeps looking better.

Yurafart

LOL!

[K-oneTexas]

Our state department is working on behalf of our Arab enemies? Much like the OSS/Intelligence Community/US Gov't and the Nazi's after WWII. (Not that it's right.)

Thanks Jimmah!

This passage from the 1986 article quoted says it all about the weaselhood of our State Dept. quislings for decades, not to mention the complicity of BOTH major political parties in the USA to cover for and pander to Pali terrorists. Yes, Clintoon and Carter are the worst, but most Republicans have been rather lousy and wimpy on these issues, too:

"State Department diplomats, worried that murder charges against Arafat would anger the United States' friends in the Arab world, are urging the Justice Department to drop the investigation. But other officials think the indictment of Arafat could demonstrate American determination to combat international terrorism."

[sgtbono2002]

The Nobel Peace prize isnt named well. Perhaps at its conception it was a wondeful prize,but today it is just a check and piece of garbage used to foust the givers politics on the world.

[Jocko from Canada]

How many times did MSM rake W for staying away from this terrorist? Is the present terrorist leading the Palis any more trustworthy? Yet America is again arming him to the teeth to prop him up in the eyes of his citizenry. If Arafat was involved directly in the decision to kill American Diplomats in 1973 where was Abbas during this time frame..playing polo with royalty?

[Dallas59]

The old gay puff.

[sono]

The MSM has a not so hidden agenda ... someone must have lost a considerable sum betting on Gore 2000.

[mkjessup]

We can be reasonably assured that Arafatrat is burning in Hell even now for his misdeeds. If Uncle Screwtape is still writing letters to his nephew Wormwood, he will no doubt cite Arafat as a fine demonic example to emulate.

[Kid Shelleen]

When are they going to declassify the documents proving he was a homosexual and died of aids? ( I am not trying to be sarcastic or funny)
