33. The capacity of the 'Palestinians' to rewrite
Emma ,   London   (03.15.12)
history never fails to amaze me. They have been doing it for so long now that they no longer know what reality is. Arafat was a crook who stole from his own people, he was actually ahead of the Queen of England on the Forbes list of rich people! Obviously being chairman of PLO is a very well paid job.
34. No insight. Nothing changes,the Egyptian thief's wife

40. No Mandela

Arafat was certainly NO Mandela! Mandela did not cry about everything nor threaten if he did not get his way.Mandela did not vow revenge nor did he organize suicide bombers. If Arafat believed totally in his cause and was prepared to use the wealth he received from around the world instead of being greedy and denying his own people their monetary rights. Mandela focused on his rainbow nation to be a shiny light in the dark world and searched out corruption even to the point of dismissing his own wife. He focused on educating his country's schoolchildren for a better future. Arafat educated his children to become shahidim and to worship hate and death-far cry from Mr Mandela If Arafat had just a touch of Mandela he probably would have earned his homeland. And by the way let's not link Mandela with the Bishop either-
