5. Palestine today is ruled by
a barely-functioning pair of lungs, a heart and a liver.

Still, better than the US.

10. Him dead
Him very dead. Car batteries keep him alive long enough for French widow to steal 1.6 billion in Palestinian funds.

Even Imelda Marcos stopped at 4,321 pairs of heels.

7. Flatlined
Edited on Wed Nov-10-04 11:23 AM by Squeech
A blob of protoplasm, manipulated by machines into a semblance of a metabolism.

Of course, he's also a symbol of national unity for a stateless people, and that's probably more important than the exact status of his fleshly envelope.

On edit: that's my guess. I don't have any hard data.

9. This Arafat ordeal reminded me of this joke
2 guys are talking, and one says:
"You know, my grandfather died"
"Wow, what happened?"
"Well, there was a fire in his apartment building"
"So he died in the fire?"
"No, he jumped out in time."
"Oh, so he jumped to his death?"
"No, there was a trampoline on the ground, he bounced off back into the house"
"Wow, so he did burn in the fire?"
"Nope, he jumped back out."
"So he did fall to his death?"
"Nope, bounced of the trampline again, back into the house"
"So he burned alive?"
"No, the firemen got so sick of him going back and forth, they shot him."



I know, I'm cruel...sue me

12. Arafat
I don't mean to sound arrogant, but I think I'm way better looking than Arafat.
