New York Daily News - World & National Report - Arafat poisoned? A Palestian diplomat accused the Israelis yesterday of poisoning Yasser Arafat.: "Arafat poisoned?
'The doctors until now could not diagnose precisely what is wrong with him, but it is believed there is a poison,' Ali Kazak, who heads the Palestinian delegation to Australia, told the Herald Sun newspaper in Melbourne.
'It could be poison because they have checked everything, and his body is in good health, there is no cancer, it is not leukemia.'
Arafat's doctor, Ashraf Kurdi, told the Al Jazeera satellite TV network that, 'Arafat's health condition makes poisoning a strong possibility.'
Israelis, who gave Arafat safe passage from his West Bank compound to a French military hospital last week, denied the charge.
'It's absolute nonsense; it's completely ridiculous,' an Israeli government source said. Kurdi has not yet diagnosed Arafat's mysterious blood ailment, and last night the 75-year-old Palestinian leader was hovering 'between life and death.'"
Palestine has diplomats? Wow! Who would have guessed. Well, I guess Kerry did call Arafat a "statesman"! What a hoot!
