abbas-arafatPalestinian President Mahmoud Abbas said yesterday that the Palestinian Authority was determined to uncover the truth of how arch terrorist Yasser Arafat died, regardless of the consequences.

“I am confident that the investigations committee will reach the truth that will be publicized to our people,” Abbas said in a recorded speech to coincide with a ceremony marking the 9th anniversary of Arafat’s death.

On Thursday, Palestinian officials demanded a global probe into the “killing” of Arafat, a day after it emerged that Swiss forensic tests showed he probably died from polonium poisoning.

With the scientific analysis purportedly showing how the Palestinian leader had died mysteriously, a senior figure in the Palestine Liberation Organization called for an international inquiry to determine who was behind it.

“The (test) results proved Arafat was poisoned by polonium, and this substance is owned by states, not people, meaning that the crime was committed by a state,” said Wasel Abu Yusef of the PLO’s executive committee.

“Just as a committee was formed to investigate the killing of (slain Lebanese prime minister) Rafiq Hariri, there must be a international committee to investigate the killing of president Arafat.”

Also Thursday, Arafat’s widow, Suha Arafat, called on Egyptian army chief General Abdel Fattah al-Sisi to help with an investigation into the leader’s death.

Arafat died in France on Nov. 11, 2004 at the age of 75, but doctors were unable to specify the cause of death. No autopsy was carried out at the time, in line with his widow Suha’s request.

Arafat’s remains were exhumed in November 2012 and samples taken, partly to investigate whether he had been poisoned – a suspicion that grew after the assassination of Russian ex-spy and Kremlin critic Alexander Litvinenko in London in 2006.

  1. ABBAS SHOULD INVESTIGATE WHERE HE HID THE 3.5 BBBILLION DOLLARS THE UN ACCUSED HIM OF MISSING AID…BUT IT SEEMS THESE ARABS IN ISRAEL AND GAZA GETS SYMPATHY FOR THE DEVIL.

  2. Suffice to say, Arafat has not said a word in many years and I do not think that his voice will make a difference in a new world where the responsibility for making peace falls upon the children of the future. I would venture to guess that it was either Israel, a palestinian or just plain old age and sickness that was the final factor in Mr. Arafats finality.

    Ultimately, the wicked conceal their relationships with the future and that means that they look for other reasons to blame, hate and decipher a new way for themselves to corrupt further.

    And that is what Mr. Abbas seems more involved in doing today.

  3. Whether its true or not in the end they are going to point a finger at israel. And for the following reasons:
    1) to sue israel and get money out of them like the Turks did
    2) to have a common cause for his people to hate Israel even more
    3)to put pressure on israel to free more prisoner-murder’s
    4) to add. A new lie that if you tell long enough people believe is true, like the poor palestinain people lie, and israels “stealing” ” their” land.

  4. A rabid anti Semite looking for a place to live that had no Jews was once told to go to gehnnom Same advice here for Mahmoud Abbas to uncover the truth of how arafat died.
