Incriminating Video Clip :: Reader comments at Daniel Pipes

Submitted by Funk Soul Bruhva (Thailand), Dec 6, 2004 at 23:52

Did anyone notice, on the CNN broadcast of Arafat arriving in Paris and blowing kisses to everyone like some Hollywood star? He was next shown sitting down for the press with his aides by his side, holding hands. Apparently kiss-happy, Arafat went to kiss the hand of his aid on his right -- his aide jerked his hand away from Arafat's lips so strongly that is pulled Arafat slightly off balance, even though he was seated in a chair.

Do you suppose the aid knew something about Arafat's "mysterious" illness?

Funk Out.
