Does Arafat Have AIDS?
(Paris) As French doctors continue to run tests on Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat some medical authorities not connected directly to his case are suggesting that he may have HIV/AIDS.

Palestinian Foreign Minister Nabil Shaath Monday said that all types of cancer had been ruled out.

Arafat has been visibly ill for more than two weeks. Last Wednesday he collapsed and briefly lost consciousness. Initial blood tests performed in the West Bank revealed a low blood platelet count. The Palestinian leader was airlifted to France where he is undergoing more tests.

But, with leukemia and other forms of cancer ruled out, the list of possible diseases is narrowing.

A low blood platelet count is a sign of a weakened immune system. In addition to cancer, the low count could be attributed to bleeding ulcers, colitis, liver disease, lupus, or HIV. It is believed that ulcers and colitis have already been ruled out.

Arafat has lost a considerable amount of body weight. Hopital d'Instruction des Armees de Percy, southwest of Paris, also has some of France's best HIV/AIDS doctors.

For several years there have been suggestions that Arafat was bisexual.

Ion Pacepa, who was deputy chief of Romanian foreign intelligence under the Ceaucescu regime and who defected to the West in 1978, says in his memoirs that the Romania government bugged Arafat and had recordings of the Arab leader in orgies with his body guards.
If the suggestions that Arafat has AIDS are true, it is doubtful it would be made public.

Pretty lame poll honestly. You posted it over 8 hours after the man died.
Sorry, it should have read "Was Arafat Gay?" I knew he was dead when I posted it. The article was older. If you read it you should realize that. Do a search on the topic and you will find alot of sites out there talking about it.
Hope none of you think he was any thing other than a Terrorist.

Here's some examples of his "balls";

He has created the first society to have glorified suicide-murders on a national scale, starting from grade school, where children attend jihad camp, watch kids' television programming that encourages "martyrdom," and play on soccer teams named after suicide bombers.

The PLO Kidnapped 11 Israeli athletes at the Olympic Games in Munich, Germany, in 1972. When that act of terrorism was all over, all 11 Israelis were killed, along with five of the Palestinian terrorists and a pair of German police officers.

A PLO faction hijacked the Achille Lauro, an Italian passenger liner, Oct. 7, 1985, and demanded the release of Palestinian prisoners in Israel. Before surrendering, they killed wheelchair-bound Jewish-American passenger Leon Klinghoffer, and dumped his body overboard. The man who commanded the operation, Mohammad Abbas, was eventually captured by U.S. military forces in Iraq.

Arafat authorized attacks by terror groups Hamas and Islamic Jihad, the latter group responsible for bombings of the U.S. Embassy in Beirut, Lebanon in the early 1980s, which killed a number of U.S. Marines, CIA operatives and other U.S. officials.

Yasser Arafat paid $2,000 to the family of a Palestinian suicide bomber who attacked the beach front Dolphinarium dance club in Tel Aviv in 2001 and then sent the terrorist’s father a letter in which he praised his son’s murderous act, according to documents captured in a recent Israeli operation that were released yesterday. This was one of the most brutal massacres of the Palestinian intifadah, killing 21 people.

FBI agents are now gathering evidence about Arafat's culpability in a March 1, 1973, operation in which eight members of the Black September terrorist organization, part of Arafat's Fatah faction of the PLO, stormed the Saudi embassy in Khartoum, reportedly on Arafat's orders, taking U.S. Ambassador Cleo Noel, diplomat Charge d'Affaires George Curtis Moore and others hostage, and one day later, killing Noel, Moore and Belgian diplomat Guy Eid.

He was a hell of a guy......no wonder the UN and France love him

:notnice:

Your kidding right? Yasser Arafat was responsible for countless murders and countless acts of terrorism. Yeah he had balls-and they were licked by his bodyguards everyday. You need to take a closer look at Arafats history of violence before patting him on the back.

The way i see it this was a pretty tacky poll to put on the internet after the guy has died. Who cares if he was a bad guy, he was a good leader and was vary respected by his people, and many other people worldwide. Not to mention, who really cares if he was gay, bi or whatever, really doesn't matter. And if he was, does that automaticly mean he had aids or HIV? I guess in the grand schem of things, it really doesn't matter now. Just my two cents. Later
 
PHP:

Who cares? People should care. He shouldn't be praised for his actions.
He was a killer, and thief. He stole aid money slated for his own people so he could live in wealth. All the while people went with out hospitals and health care. He is the father of modern terrorism! The wave of terror we now have is a direct result of this man. Middle East peace could have been reached several times, but he refused the peace plans. Why, because he doesn't want to live in peace with two nations. He wanted to pushed the Jews into the sea. He was not going stop until he removed a Jewish state from the Middle East. The man should be remembered with the likes of Hitler, and Stalin, not held up as a great leader.
 
From the N.Y.Times:
Strokes are generally sudden affairs, and Mr. Arafat's was almost certainly a secondary result of his underlying and undisclosed illness. At the time of his medical evacuation to Paris two weeks ago, aides disclosed that he was suffering from a low platelet count and had undergone a platelet transfusion. Since platelets are involved in blood clotting, patients with low counts are predisposed to brain hemorrhages, so Mr. Arafat's platelet count may have contributed to his death.

But low platelet counts in the blood are a common finding in a wide range of afflictions, including severe infections, liver disease, end stage cancer and even AIDS. And doctors made no mention of a hemorrhage until Thursday, suggesting that it was a recent event.

There are various possibilities about why Mr. Arafat's inner circle would want to keep the cause of his death a secret. Perhaps he suffered from a disease that they considered embarrassing. Or perhaps the doctors who treated him during the early phases of his illness in Ramallah missed a treatable condition, letting him deteriorate to the point where it was too late to cure him once he had been moved to Paris.
 
Figured I'd get jumped on like that. I won't even try to retaliate because I know you are all to close minded to understand it, like many americans today. I have a much different moral code than most ppl, and I know most don't/won't accept it, so all i'll say about the whole thing is that I believe he is a man who fought for his ppl, and fought for what he believed in.
