They say good news comes in 2s.
Actually, they don’t say any such thing.
Heck, I don’t even know who they are.
In any event, hot on the heels of Bush’s election victory comes this great news.
Yasser Arafat, hospitalized in France with a mystery ailment, was rushed to intensive care after suffering a setback and was undergoing a new round of tests, Palestinian officials said early Thursday.The two officials, speaking on condition of anonymity, said the 75-year-old Arafat’s condition had seriously deteriorated over the past day, adding that doctors who have been examining him since Friday still don’t know the cause of his illness.
Meanwhile, old habits die hide for PA officials as they pursue their dual policy of lie and blame (Israel).
..Arafat’s top aides denied there had been any setback and accused Israel of spreading rumors. The report first aired on Israel’s Channel Two television.“These unfounded reports are not coming from French medical teams. These are leaks from the Israeli side,” said Mohammed Dahlan, a former Palestinian security chief.
Interesting, since the news story first quoted two anonymous PA officials.
In any event, here’s hoping to whatever Terrorfat has resulting in his slow and painful end.
