Father of Terrorism Eulogized by World Leaders
by Jack Kinsella

The death of Yasser Arafat mirrored his life;  it was surrounded by
mystery, intrigue, cynical exploitation and lies.  Although Arafat was
declared dead yesterday, it is doubtful anybody will ever really know when
he died, or what he died from.  Officially, that is.

Unofficially,  Arafat died of AIDS. Arafat was not just a homosexual;
according to the Mossad, he was a homosexual pedophile.  A Mossad agent
who managed to get planted as Arafat's driver reported his main job for
the terrorist leader was to procure young boys for him. Romanian dictator
Nicolae Ceaucescu reportedly had videotapes of Arafat romping with
Romanian boys that he kept tucked away to keep Arafat in line.

In any case, whether Arafat died of AIDS, a cold, poison or from being
beaten to death with a toilet seat, the terrorist is indeed dead.  With
apologies to the Coroner of Munchkinville, Arafat isn't just merely dead,
he's really most sincerely dead.

The death of Yasser Arafat affected some world leaders so profoundly that
it gave them a case of hysterical amnesia.

Jacques Chirac who visited Arafat days before his death, called him a "man
of courage and conviction who, for 40 years, has incarnated the
Palestinians' combat for recognition of their national rights."

UN Idiot-in-Chief Kofi Annan said Arafat "expressed and symbolized in his
person the national aspirations of the Palestinian people," and admitted
he was 'deeply moved' by his passing.

German Chancellor Gerhard Schroeder credited Arafat with striving to lead
the Palestinians to independence, regretting "it was not granted to Yasser
Arafat to complete his life's work."

(Arafat's uncompleted 'life's work' was the annihilation of the Jewish
people -- a job unfinished by Schroeder's predecessor, Adolf Hitler.)

Chinese President Hu Jintao said Arafat was "an outstanding leader of the
Palestinian cause." Canada's Paul Martin offered his condolences and
sympathy to the family of Arafat, as well as to all Palestinians.

"Chairman Arafat personified the Palestinian people's struggle to see
their right to self-determination realized," he said in a statement.
"Chairman Arafat's influence on regional and global events has been
undeniable," Martin added.

Egypt plans to give Arafat a military funeral Friday and Jordan announced
three days' mourning. Egypt called him a "historic leader" who strove for
"peace, security and stability."

President Bush said only that Arafat's death was 'a significant moment in
Palestinian history'. British Prime Minister Tony Blair expressed his
condolences and noted that Arafat was a Nobel Peace Laureate.

The only world leader who actually told the truth about Yasser Arafat was
the ever-courageous John Howard of Australia. (I would include President Bush
in this statement in that it was indeed 'a significant moment in
Palestinian history'. With our troops surrounded by hostile Islamists, this one

factual statement is all that needs be said. - MK)

Howard (God bless him)  said of the increasingly dead terrorist; "I think
history will judge him very harshly for not having seized the opportunity
in the year 2000 to embrace the offer that was very courageously made by
the then Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak, which involved the Israelis
agreeing to about 90 per cent of what the Palestinians had wanted."

Howard said he would not attend Arafat's funeral and neither would any of
his Cabinet ministers. When asked, Howard told reporters, "There would be
appropriate representation but it certainly would not be at ministerial
level."

Assessment:

With the exception of John Howard,  the rest of the world's leaders
proved, by their comments, to be; a) complete idiots, or, b) craven
cowards.  In some cases, (Jacques Chirac comes to mind) both apply.

But Irish President Mary McAleese topped even Jacques Chirac, saying in a
statement that, "President Arafat has been a key figure in the efforts to
bring about a peaceful resolution of the Israel-Palestine conflict on the
basis of two states living in peace within secure and agreed borders."

Completely abandoning reality, she reinvented the bloodstained terrorist
on the fly, saying, "His passing is a tragic loss to the Palestinian
people for whom he has been a unifying figure for decades."

A UNIFYING figure?  Yasser Arafat?  What has she been smoking?

Time for a reality check.   Yasser Arafat was the founder of Fatah and the
PLO.  The objective of both organizations was the destruction of Israel
and the annihilation of the Jews.  Yasser Arafat invented terrorism.

It was Yasser Arafat who dreamed up airplane hijackings as a terrorist
tool.  It was Yasser Arafat who was responsible for the 1972 Munich
Massacre in which eleven Israeli atheletes were murdered by PLO
terrorists.

According Barry Rubin's biography of Arafat, the PLO committed more than
8,000 terrorist acts between 1969-1985. It was responsible for the deaths
of more than 650 Israelis, 28 Americans and scores of people from other
countries.

Among Arafat's more memorable acts was the massacre of 11 Israeli athletes
in Munich in 1972 and the attack on a school in Maalot in 1974 that led to
the death of 21 school children.

Arafat's minions also hijacked four planes in the 1970s and the Italian
cruise ship, the Achille Lauro in 1985.

(Aboard the Achille Lauro, Arafat's crew murdered a wheelchair-bound
American in his 70's from Florida, Leon Klinghoffer, by pushing him,
wheelchair and all, over the side of the ship._

Israelis were not the groups only target.

In 1971 the PLO assassinated the Jordanian Prime Minister Wasfi Tel. It
kidnapped and killed US Ambassador to Khartoum Cleo Noel and Deputy Cheif
of Mission Curtis Moore as well as a Belgian diplomat Guy Eid, in 1973.
Still it failed in its plan to attack the US embassy in Amman in 1973 and
to kill Jordan King Hussein in 1974.

Yasser Arafat embraced Saddam Hussein when he invaded Kuwait, turning his
back on his Kuwaiti and Saudi benefactors. After the war, they cut off his
funding and expelled Palestinian guest workers who had lived in those
countries for generations.

Arafat only came to the peace table in 1993 because he was broke -- he had
no choice.  His Peace Prize was a sham -- Arafat killed more Israelis --
more than 1000 in the last four years--  as a Nobel Laureate than he did
when he was just another unwashed terrorist.

Global reaction to the death of Yasser Arafat is a measure of just how
much the rest of the world hates Israel.  Yasser Arafat wasn't just a
terrorist from Israel's perspective,  Yasser Arafat was a terrorist by
every imaginable definition.

And there are few countries on earth untouched by his bloodstained hands.
(That would also include the Irish, who evidently are among the worst
cases of the mass hysterical amnesia now being suffered by leaders the
world over -- with the noted exception of Australia.)

Yasser Arafat was the personification of evil on this earth -- and he had
few equals, either historical or contemporary.  He was a thief who stole
from his own people, destroyed their hopes of statehood in order to
maintain his hold on power, and founded the world's first UN-sanctioned
terrorist state.

He could have helped the poor, built hospitals and universities, but he
chose to use his stolen wealth and power to murder the innocent --
innocent men, women and little children.  Arafat created the first society
in history in which murder was a national responsibility.

But since Yasser Arafat's terrorism was linked to the noble goal of
annihilating Israel,  his death is a 'tragic loss' to the world.

That speaks volumes.
