Report: Yasser Arafat died of AIDS

[Spence]

It was long rumored that Arafat was gay.
A leading Palestinian “resistance” figure has confirmed what many suspected all along: Yasser Arafat died of AIDS.

In an interview with Hizballah's Al-Manar TV earlier this month, Ahmad Jibril, founder and leader of the Damascus-based Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine-General Command, revealed a shocking conversation he recently had with Palestinian Authority Chairman Mahmoud Abbas and his staff.
...
Jibril, like many Palestinians, readily accepted the notion that Israel had assassinated Arafat, and wanted the Palestinian Authority to conduct an official investigation concluding as much. The response from Abbas' aides changed in an instant Jibril's view of his deceased mentor.

“They were silent, and then one of them said to me: 'To be honest, the French gave us the medical report, that stated that the cause of [Arafat's] death was AIDS.'”

Arafat eventually died in a Paris hospital after being airlifted out of Ramallah. Many speculated that the Palestinian leader, who was said to have had numerous homosexual relationships, had in fact contracted AIDS. Source (http://www.israeltoday.co.il/default.aspx?tabid=178&nid=13412)

WOW. That explains why he wasn't a suicide bomber. He couldn't be assured his virgins would be doods.

Arafat wasn't religious enough to be a suicide bomber. Not exactly a regular at Friday prayers, I can tell you that. His fight against Israel was about nationalism, not Islam.

And Israel stealing all the Palestinian men too apparently.

And Israel stealing all the Palestinian men too apparently.How could anyone tell? As Peter Griffin [Family Guy] once said to a Palestinian and an Israeli:

"Hey, all I'm sayin' is that if you put an Arab guy next to an Israeli guy, I can't tell the difference."

As usual, The Onion had it first (http://www.theonion.com/content/node/27830).

WHAT!?

It'll be interesting to see what kind of effect this has on his legacy in the Arab world.

We need to deport all Muslims because they are probably kaweer.

Its in the Koran that every Son of Allah has the duty to spread aids. Not that I've actually read it, I heard that from this website I went to.

he was personally a corrupt individual and had amassed fortunes for his own use.
his orientation is irrelevant.. but he served his people poorly, selling them out for his own personal riches

The real reason why the Bushes are so close to the Saudis.

Interesting that no major news sources are running this story...Because it hasn't been confirmed any further than what I posted. The source is second-hand. I posted it because it gels perfectly with what I've heard. One of my best friends wrote a biography of Arafat and interviewed the man himself and many of his colleagues at lengths. He was convinced Arafat was gay. It had been rumored for decades. I'm sure the CIA and Mossad have something on it.

i'll believe this when it's on a site besides israel today.

come on people, consider the source.

why would israel officially even care what the cause of death was ? he became irrelevant long before he died and there were far more odious characters that they had to deal with than YA

It has built up a tolerance over the past couple of years lol.
