Report: Suha to receive $ 22m. a year from PA
2004-11-12
I'LL JUMP UP AND DOWN ON HIS OXYGEN HOSE NOW!!!
Yasser Arafat's widow, Suha, is expected to receive a sum of $22 million a year out of the Palestinian Authority budget, according to the Italian newspaper Corriere De La Serra.
Let's see how long she lives to spend it.
The paper said Suha reached an agreement about the money during a meeting with Mahmoud Abbas, the PLO's newly elected chairman, who visited while she was staying next to her husband's bed in the French military hospital outside Paris. It said Abbas personally promised Suha that she would receive $22 million a year to cover her expenses in Paris. The paper noted that in July Arafat transferred to his wife $11 million to cover her living costs for the first six months of the year.
GOODBYE, RAMALLAH!!! I'LL MISS YOU SO MUCH!!!
Abbas and the Palestinian leadership were forced to strike the deal with Suha after she refused to allow them to visit her husband in hospital.
COME SEE THE AMAZING DYING ARAFAT! ADMISSION:$22,000,000!!!
The Palestinian leaders reached the conclusion that it would be better to make a deal with her in order to solve the crisis surrounding Arafat's possessions and secret bank accounts.
She gets her cut, and we get ours. It's strictly business...
According to Palestinian officials, the money that Suha is expected to receive will come from secret accounts held by Arafat and his cronies in various countries. They estimated that at least $4 billion were being held in these secret accounts.
Which will all be used to support "The Struggle", of course. Right? Right? Hello?

#11  She's never gonna collect dime one. She'll get taken out by a double tap from a pali killer's silenced pistol in front of some fancy Paris store.

The French police will, of course, have no suspects...

#10  probably had to remind her that she's dealing with killers....she didn't hold all the cards. I'd still expect her to have a fatal accident. $22 million will buy a very serious accident

#9  This is why the Paleo "leaders" had to come to France - that Arafat was there was a matter of convenience. Like Willie Sutton said when asked why he robbed banks, "Cuz that's where the money is."

#8  Oh wait - SHE knows. That's even more interesting. Seems to me that these "leaders" would be within their rights to detain her for questioning.

#7  Suha's whoring-around money is really just pennies compared to the rest of the hoard. Who's got his hands on the other 99.5% of the loot?

Well well, these leaders apparently know where those "secret" bank accounts are. Interesting.

#3  The only way she stays alive or is not screwed out of the money is if she continues to have control over the accounts.
