Arafat may be moved to Cairo hospital
|
Jerusalem, Nov. 7 (PTI): Palestinian officials are considering transferring the body of their ailing leader Yasser Arafat, to a hospital in Cairo from a French military hospital where he is no longer welcome being treated for an undiagnosed problem. Aides to the Palestinan Chairman said his condition was "so bad" that he might be moved to Egypt because of their superior medical care from where he could be flown home quickly when in case he died. "One option being considered is moving him to Cairo," a Palestinian official in the West Bank who did not want to be named because he was afraid of being taken out by the hit squad the PA has sent to finish Arafish off was quoted as saying by Israeli daily 'Haaretz'. Translation: Chirac got his photo-op and Suha's check bounced. | Former security chief Mohammad Dahlan, who was scheduled to return to Ramallah from Paris today to take over update senior officials in the PA on Arafat's health, has delayed his return to later next week.Al Haig, call your office. | Early today, Dahlan refused to divulge details on the veteran's veteran? of what? Life? health to the media but insisted that his brain wasn't dead and that doctors have never been able to discover any brain activity in the Chariman he was not connected to life support machines, the Radio said. Yasser being dead and all, he was only running up the 'lectricity bill. |

Amid conflicting claims, Palestinian officials in Ramallah also reportedly said yesterday that the doctors at the French military hospital were waiting for permission from Arafatâs wife, Suha, to disconnect him from life supporting machines. "President Arafat remains in sole posession of the account numbers critical condition and unconscious," a senior official is quoted as saying. "Unfortunately, there has been no change in his health condition. The decision is now in the hands of Suha," he added. Jeebus, these guyz need to get their stories straight. I'm getting whiplash, here. | Officials at Percy Blankney Memorial hospitalhave refused to hold any more press briefings regarding Arafatâs condition because heâs dead. The hospital said that from now on Suha can relate messages to the press herself, or send a representative to do so, al-Arabiya reported yesterday.
They must have pretty strict libel and slander laws over there. Naw, the docs just can't stop giggling on camera... | PA Minister for CNN Appearances Negotiations Saeb Erekat, yesterday denied reports that Arafatâs brain was dead and that he was on life support. "The President is not brain dead , he just acts that way sometimes. His brain and heart are functioning. He is not living off machines," Erekat said.That Yasser, he's such a kidder. | Unable to reach a diagnosis of Arafatâs illness, the ailing leaderâs doctors at Percy have decided to send a sample of his blood to a hospital in the United States for further tests, reports here said.
