The Critic Posted November 4, 2004 Share Posted November 4, 2004 All I read was that there were conflicting reports about whether he fell into a coma or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rex Kickass Posted November 4, 2004 Share Posted November 4, 2004 Not brain dead. Either in a coma, or just dead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Critic Posted November 4, 2004 Share Posted November 4, 2004 How do any of you think Arafat's death would affect the Israeli/Palestinian situation? Does it even matter, or are their differences too deep and entrenched to be settled diplomatically? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southsider2k5 Posted November 4, 2004 Share Posted November 4, 2004 Arafat braindead? There is probably a crude joke in there somewhere but I will let it go. If this is true, hopefully some way it works out where it pushes these two back to the peace table. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I heard on the radio that Israel is reporting that he's dead (that he has no activity in his brain) but that his heart is still working, so technically he's alive. The hospital he is at is denying this report though. I'm assuming he's in a comma. Either way this is going to be very interesting to see how this situation is handled by Palestinians and Israelites.

CubKilla Posted November 4, 2004 Share Posted November 4, 2004 f*** him. If he's dead, I hope to Allah that he's getting cornholed by Satan right now. Terrorist piece of s***. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LowerCaseRepublican Posted November 4, 2004 Share Posted November 4, 2004 http://abcnews.go.com/International/wireStory?id=226539 Israeli media is reporting he is brain dead but the PM is denying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CubKilla Posted November 4, 2004 Share Posted November 4, 2004 Steff said: Apparently not. http://www.allheadlinenews.com/articles/1099587662 Just read on WCKG that he's offically brain dead.

southsider2k5 Posted November 4, 2004 Share Posted November 4, 2004 I know people are denying it, and it makes total sense. If you have no successor set up, you want to keep order and prevent a big power struggle. So right now you deny everything, until you figure out who is taking over.

Chisoxrd5 Posted November 4, 2004 Share Posted November 4, 2004 He might be brain dead but I dont believe hes dead yet: Reuters is reporting the hospital has denied reports he is dead: Linky- Yahoo News But I guess we will have to wait and see...

Pale Hose Jon Posted November 4, 2004 Share Posted November 4, 2004 This could be really bad if his successor turns out to be more radical than he is. Everything is primed for a huge war in the middle east right now, and this could be the fuse that sets off the bomb. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soxman352000 Posted November 4, 2004 Share Posted November 4, 2004 Arafat is in a coma state right? He is not dead Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DBAHO Posted November 5, 2004 Share Posted November 5, 2004 He's only breathing thanks to life support systems so I don't think he's coming back. And Steff is right, there'll be complete chaos between Israel and Palenstines now. Let's hope Bush can actually take his focus off Iraq for a second and get these 2 back on the peace table.
