Post-mortem

Submitted by Santiago (Spain), Nov 13, 2004 at 08:28

I have read these days that Palestinian authorities have asserted that Arafat was poisoned by Israel. Why miss the opportunity to show it through an autopsy? Why bury him so hastily? Are the French doctors not interested in finding what sneaky illness they could not diagnose as the cause of Arafat´s demise? It looks like a smoke-screen by PA insiders (who obviously knew best) to conceal Arafat´s sexual deviations. His marriage seems to me like Rock Hudson´s or Michael Jackson´s own parody. There are a lot of people anxious to see those Roumanian porn films. Sure they would be box-office hits, or in the web at least.
