#4 Uhm, I'm not an expert or anything, but liver failure is a frequent complication of long-term AIDS treatment. The AIDS drugs basically ruin the liver after enough time.

I'm not saying Arafat has AIDS.

#5 Wasn't Osama supposed to be on dialysis too? Needle sharing? Camel sharing?

#6 Is it my diseased imagination, or is this Arafat thing beginning to sound like a combination of Monty Python's Dead Parrot Sketch and the movie "Weekend at Bernie's"?

#9 Look, why don't they just tell what ailments Arafat does not have? Sounds like that would be simpler.

#10 Even better tell us if he is in a state that rhymes with red.

#12 Look, why don't they just tell what ailments Arafat does not have?

From all appearances, it would seem that Arafat is unafflicted by only one thing, a conscience.

#14 DEBKA is saying he'd dead & France is telling the Paleos to get off the pot with their maskirova and get himout of town before he smells up the place even more than it is.

Rx for DEBKA: NaCl PRN.

#15 Where Arafart is concerned, failure isn't confined to his liver.

#16 al Jezeerah reports that Suha called them demanding the other Palestinian leaders NOT come to Paris, claiming they are part of a plot to bury Arafat alive.

I guess she didn't get the account numbers, huh.

#17 Yasser Arafat lay ~~dead~~ critically ill with liver failure on Sunday and his condition was getting no better

Ya know, I'm thinking he's been dead for a few days. The last couple of days they've been saying things like "he's not in a coma, but his condition hasn't improved" and now this. Every comment they make avoids saying he's alive or dead, but leaves "dead" as a very clear possibility.

#18 Under Islamic law he must be buried within 24 hrs of being declard dead & under Palestinian law they have to hold elections within 60 days. This could stretch on a long time while the money and power struggles continue, but it does really look pretty ridiculous at this point ....
