Revenge Of The Mournful Wife

this is quoted directly from www.debka.com which means that you should read it and consider the source. it is an interesting news sight with a definite opinion on events..........opinion being the key word in the sentence, nevertheless, it is an important sight to read and stay abreast of news while considering all perspectives.
HERE IS THE QUOTE.....
"Arafat’s widow absconds to Tunis with his medical files ahead of his nephew al-Kidwa’s arrival in Paris to collect them.
French defense ministry says al Kidwa is entitled to access medical information on Arafat’s never-publicly-diagnosed illness. But Suha’s lawyers say only children and widow
She took the files and ran after Palestinian TV broadcast Friday sermon threatening her life. She used Arafat’s plane, flouting Palestinian Authority’s demands for its return.
PA hoped to publish record and lay to rest rumors of foul play, including Israeli poison. DEBKAfile’s Paris sources convinced widow will hold onto medical files as collateral for agreed PA payments and as leverage to help radicals Kadoumi, Mussa Arafat and Force 17 commander foil Abbas’s bid for succession"

all i can say is that arafat unfortunately remains interesting even in death. it is very much like a bad b movie and once again stains the palestinian cause by making the cause a comic afterthought. in essense i am left with the thought that it is much more important to have power and influence instead of respect and a country within some of the palestinian quarters. maybe that is unfair, maybe suha represents the last breaths of this dying regime which is an unhealed sore for all of us to leer at.
the sooner she and her gang of money grabbing power hungry bacteria disappear from the scene the better the middle east will hopefully be.
i use the word hopefully because there are no absolutes left for us over here. we are a region in which hope has become an optimistic banner in which one can be made to feel like an idiot for keeping afloat sometimes.
