DEAD AGAIN

Arafat Is Dead, Palestinian Sources Say
PARIS (Reuters) - Palestinian President Yasser Arafat is dead, senior Palestinian political sources said on Tuesday. The information from sources close to Arafat could not immediately be confirmed. "He is dead," a senior political source close to Arafat told Reuters in Paris, where the 75-year-old leader has been lying in a coma at a French military hospital. Asked to confirm Arafat's death, another official close to the president said: "Yes, he is dead. There will be an announcement soon."

WHAT A COINCIDENCE THAT HE "LIVED" UNTIL HIS UNDERBOSSES COULD COME VISIT HIM IN PARIS. HMMM. I HOPE HIS BODY DIDN'T SMELL TOO MUCH. HE'S BEEN DEAD SINCE LAST WEDNESDAY EVENING. ON A RELATED NOTE, HIS LOVELY WIFE SUHA IS NOW ON THE SINGLES MARKET. INTERESTED DICTATORS AND MURDERERS CAN SEND THEIR PHOTOS TO HER AT: jblogger@sbcglobal.net
