"Arafat, dead or alive?"


I have been watching the news, and the different reports about Arafat.
They do not seem to know whether he is dead or alive. One time they
said he was brain dead, but in stable condition. If you're brain dead, that
means you are dead.
I have heard different people say why they are doing that.
One, they want Arafats money, and they are trying to keep
him alive so that they can find out where it is.
Two, according to the muslim religion, you have to be buried
within 24 hours after you have been declared dead.
Israel will not allow him to be buried in Jerusalem, so
they have no place to bury him. He( his body) is just in limbo right now.
If he is dead, how long can they keep him?
Interesting question, don't you think?
