#3 Yasser's obviously gone totally senile. He's an Egyptian, born in Egypt to Egyptian parents. His homeland is Egypt, not Israel. Duh!
Remember the Mufti of Jerusalem Hajj Amin al Husseini, a nazi collaborator, who broadcasted propaganda in Germany, and went to Bosnia to bless muslim waffen-SS units he personnally helped to create, thus actively participating in the fianl solution?
From "whitewashing the palestinian leadership part II" : After Hajj Amin al-Husseini's death in 1974, the relatives of this fascist anti-Semite continued to wield decisive influence in Palestinian organizations. Case in point: Yasser Arafat. As Howard Sachar explains (my emphasis): âThe Fatah leaderâs actual name was Abd al-Rahman abd al-Rauf Arafat al-Qud al-Husseini. He shortened it to obscure his kinship with the discredited ex-Mufti of Jerusalem, Hajj Muhammad Amin al-Husseini.â[17]

Here is what Arafat told an interviewer from the pro-PLO, London-based, Arabic-language newspaper al-Sharq al-Awsat. His comments were picked up by a leading Palestinian daily:
Interviewer: âI have heard voices from within the [Palestinian] Authority in the past few weeks, saying that the reforms are coordinated according to American whimsâ¦â
Arafat: âWe are not Afghanistanâ¦We are the Mighty People. Were they able to replace our hero Hajj Amin al-Husseini? ...There were a number of attempts to get rid of Hajj Amin, whom they considered an ally of the Nazis. But even so, he lived in Cairo, and participated in the 1948 war, and I was one of his troops.â[18]
Arafat is an egyptian, was born in Egypt, studied in Egypt, lived in Egypt along with the exiled Husseini family. Bury him in his native town, Cairo. |
