The odds are that Arafat does have AIDS. Years ago iconoclastic compulsive truth teller Oriana Fallaci, at that time somewhat sympathetic to the Palestinians, reported that Arafat's headquarters had a number of blonde German young men slouching around the place. Apparently, blondes were his preferred taste. She dug deeper and found that not only was he homosexual but that the fact was well known in his intimate circle. Later, as the rumors gathered force and seeped out to the world at large, Arafat arranged his pseudo marriage to his gold digging "wife." She quickly bore him a child and then cashed in at her Paris abode. You can always count on Oriana.
