Arafat is dead!

I will not be sadden by this news!

He was a terrorist that did not want peace, he was behind Hamas who targeted woman and children in buses and in restraurants.

He is reportedly worth 8 to 9 billion dollars and his people have nothing and he did nothing to help them. He had a chance within the last 2 years to put together a stable government for his people and he undercut the leaders at every chance and now they have no leadership and will fall into chaos and fight amongst each other for rule!

He could have ended this blood-shed when Isreal offered him over 90% of his demands, and he turned it down because he was a blood thursty evil piece of crap.

And he made Clinton look like an idiot!

The world is a better place today because he is dead, maybe out of the chaos that will ensue form this a leader can arise and settle this dispute and the world would be a better place.

The Arafat family is denying that he is dead.

It doesn't take much to make Clintin look stupid!!! :P But he was an evil man who lived off bloodshed and the world will not miss him!!

I don't think that anyone here in the US is saddened by this news (if he really is dead)...on the contrary, maybe it it the first step to peace in the Middle East, as Arafat is/was a magnet for the Palestinian extremists and their idea that terrorism was the only way to accomplish their goal of an independent Palestinian state. Now maybe cooler heads will negotiate a proper settlement of the issues that have plagued this area since the creation of Israel.

If Arafat is indeed dead, I think it's gonna help the Israeli/Palestinian peace proccess alot. He's been a hindrance to it all along, and it's about time for a new face.

I'm not happy that he died, but I'm not gonna miss him at all.

Where did you see that he is dead... I just saw an article that said he was in a coma not dead?

During President Bush's speach today a reporter stood up and said that they had learned that Arafat was Dead and asked Bush how he felt about it!

Now his supporters are denying it, but people are speculating that he is dead the just will not release the information.

It may make me a bad person but I hope he is in hell where he belongs!

Star Tribune is reporting that there have been rumors of his death but that they are false and doctors have confirmed although extemely ill and in a coma at this point is still alive. Who knows I guess if you want to know for sure watch the national news tonight perhaps they can clear it up.

"The rumors of my death have been greatly exaggerated." - Arafat

Well supposedly he's in a coma and "braindead" right now.
