Arafat in a coma
Some doctors fear he'll die within 24 hours. And Sharon has already announced that he won't let Arafat be buried in Jerusalem. Who cares if it's Arafat's holy city too?
(Yes, he's an old terrorist. But I think Sharon and other Israeli politicians are just as much terrorists. I think neither side is excused from their behaviour, but Arafat has done enough good for his people to be worthy of respect, and I think his passing will only destabilize the region further.)
