babyface

apparently i'm that person everyone goes to in order to see what her opinion is on political issues. we've had the election and all that went with that, we've had iraq, we've had domestic issues, we've had a number of things, on the tip of everyone's tongue for your friendly arab liberal democrat? thats right... arafat.

so, i've gotten the question from a number of sources. what will be the impact of babyface's death (not meant disrespectfully, but lets face it, he has a babyface). so anyways, he's not dead yet guys, not dead yet. they can't figure out whats wrong with him and he's in and out of comas. so, here's the scoop. contrary to popular belief, arafat hasn't done shit for years... look at the guy, this isn't a facade. he's an old, sick man. he has been nothing but a symbol to palestian people. he's been around as a leader throughout all these wars, and he's fought for them. now, he's just a scapegoat. but down to it. he's fairly harmless. so... big question: how will his passing away affect arabs? it will just make him more of a symbol.

there's a but. there WILL be a problem in the event that sharon and his minions don't allow demonstrations in his memory, and even bigger, if they don't allow him to be buried in jerusalem. bad idea. bad things will come of this. its showing the world and the palestinians they have nothing to do with israel and they aren't wanted there.
