Oh, and speaking of Arafat

who knew his wife was the Middle Eastern version of Teresa Kerry? (Shit, who knew he had a wife…who was, like, you know, female? Although, damn, look at that picture…do you suppose she looked better than that at 28 than she does at 41?)
(Also from IsraelInsider)

Debka reports that Arafat’s wife Suha will demand that Abbas and Qurei sign documents drafted by her French lawyers guaranteeing her a multimillion dollar inheritance and pension as the price for her switching off life support systems. Apparently Suha has not been successful in extracting from her brain-dead husband the access information for various bank accounts he controls.
Debka describes the behind the scenes bickering over the pretence of Arafat’s allegedly reversible condition. “Suhah Arafat sacked the PLO ambassador Leila Shahid, the Palestinian spokesperson who issued almost daily bulletins after Arafat arrived in Paris.”

Unbelievable.
