Yassir Arrafat
 

Leader of the PLO and longtime leader of the Palestinian nationalist movement has died in a French hospital today. He was 72.

Yassir Arafat kinda rhymes with "you sir are fat."

lo lo lo...

omg making fun of ded ppl? lo that's mean :mad:

Guys, this is a serious discussion. Instead of making fun of his name, why don't you talk about him. Did you like him or dislike him? Do you think he was crazy or intelligent? Stuff like that.

I honestly didn't know enough about him to hold a good enough converation. I personally think he did well for the Palastinian people, and that there are going to be some serious conciquences of his death. Im interested in how the next leader is going to take power.

I didn't like him, but am I glad he is dead? Not sure since I dont know who will take his place. Three people are able too and only one is ok.

WHoa. I knew he was in the hospital but I didn't think it was this bad.

Meh.

Yeah he has been really bad. His wife thought there was a comspiracy and he really wasn't as bad as they say just to remove him from power.

you sir are a fat...

lo lo....omg

Uhm...I didn't really know much about him, but I was watching the news. At the 'mourning' ceremony thing, they all looked like they were cheering...is that a cultural thing, or did I miss something?

Not sure, he has a lot of followers and a lot of people who hate him. Just depends on what crowd you look at

Thank ya, sir. I was a bit confused. They were climbing on his coffin, sorta like crowd surfing. x_x

Like with Saddam's statue. Only on a coffin, with Palestinian people, and no shoe slapping involved???

Yeah, sort of. Just curious, though.

Nice way to give respects. To bad that wasn't chanted when his coffin was brought back to his compound.

Yassir Arafat helped intise hostile negotiations between isreal and palastine man. He helped organize suicide bombings and a nation of religious zealots loved him for it. Think of him as a Asub mal-kaswari or Osama's Minnie Me

Its ok ill cut the unbreakable diamond tether-Zoidberg
