#2 Removing Life Support Ruled Out for Arafat

After all, it's a little late in the game to be dismantling the UN.

#4 So it is OK with Islam to hook the Arafish up to a bunch of tubes and respirators? Where is that written in the Koran? Or does some Imam clown issue a fatwa permitting the proceedure until financial negotiations are completed by all parties?

The thing that gets me is that the French play right into this. I am sure that the Islamists look at the French as useful idiots, but the French cannot see this basic principle.

#5 Why are they still calling it "life support" instead of what it really is (death support)?

#7 I say we take off and nuke the place from orbit. It's the only way to be sure.

#8 "only his heart and lungs were still functioning". Sounds like he's legally dead.
I'd say he's probably already stinking up the hospital room, but this is France we're talking about.

#9 Ya know folks, the Ululators are still sitting there waiting for their masters to operate them. Kinda of a letdown, waiting so long. Fat Ladies and Accordion Ladies have come and gone. Well, at least the Paleos have given up trying to bury the 'Fish in Jerusalem.

I read an article in Jewish World Review today that the gist was that after the Arafish dies, and the other goons get sorted out, nothing will change in âPalestineâ during the transition from kaffiyehs and holsters to suits and ties. Here is the link. Kinda depressing.

#10 I heard the Suha has settled on a $22Million yearly allowance from Fatah. Now thatâs done I bet she will pulls the plug herself. FYI She aint a Muslim, so those rules donât apply.

#11 Riddle me this: How can they tell when a man with no heart has actually died?

#12 So they aren't sure they've got the right confirm codes!
