I thought that's how he got into trouble in the first place. /badump bump

Palestinian Arabs are still in denial about the death of the Dear Leader, and some are calling for more investigation:

PA seeks new probe of Arafat's death

...Even as the Palestinians prepared for the ceremony, the Palestinian Authority has called for an international commission of inquiry to investigate the circumstances surrounding Arafat's passing. PA officials told The Jerusalem Post that the commission of inquiry should have the same mandate as the one established by the UN to investigate the assassination of former Lebanese prime minister Rafik Hariri.

Many Palestinians are still convinced that Arafat died as a result of poisoning. Two committees set up by the PA to investigate the case have failed to reach conclusive findings.

"There's an urgent need to deal seriously with the martyrdom of President Yasser Arafat," said Foreign Minister Nasser al-Kidwa, a nephew of the late PA chairman. "The conclusions of the [Palestinian] committees of inquiry remain shrouded in mystery."...

It may come as some surprise, but I'm all for another investigation. As long as all the medical records, the test results ... everything ... are on the public record and non-moonbat American and Israeli doctors and investigators are involved I'm all for it.

Here's a prediction. Nothing, absolutely nothing will stop some people from continuing to insist things like his having been poisoned via laser beam, but at least the rational masses will have something to go on to separate ourselves, and themselves, from the rest. Without a public record, there is nothing for Arabs willing and ready to argue for the common sense to use to do so. Secrecy fosters conspiracy. The trouble is that some have a vested interest in keeping it that way.

the problem is if the investigation is open his sexual orientation may 'come out'. He supposedly was homosexual.
