Arafat on monille yhtä kuin 'Palestiina' joten katsotaas nyt miten 'palestiinalainen' mies on. Arafat on tosiaan hyvä 'palstiinalaisten' symboli koska on itse asiassa egyptiläinen, Moskovassa 60-luvulla koulutettu. Tässä tietoa. Selviää miten Arafat puheissaan valehtelee olevansa yksi 'sionismin'uhreista vaikka itse asiassa ei ole kärsinyt sionismista tippaakaan. Niilin rantojen poikia on kiltti Jasser-setä.
"[Arafat] was adamant that he will not be forced out off Palestinian Authority territory: "This is my homeland. I was living here before he (Sharon) arrived in this country. I was born here in Jerusalem beside the Wailing Wall. My mother's family is from this area (in Ramallah)."
He must have been born in a neighborhood near the Wailing Wall called Cairo:
On countless occasions, Yasir Arafat has regaled listeners about his Jerusalem birth and childhood. He fondly recalls his birthplace in a stone house abutting the Western Wall, then how he lived with his Uncle Sa'ud in Jerusalem. Like Said, Arafat presents himself as a victim of Zionism - someone who lost his wordly belongings and his place in the world due to Israel's coming into existence. But in fact, as two intrepid French biographers, Christophe Boltanski and Jihan El-Tahri revealed a few years, ago (in their 1997 book, Les sept vies de Yasser Arafat), "Mr. Palestine was born on the shores of the Nile."
The French researchers tell an amusing story of discovery. They went to the University of Cairo and innocently asked for the registration of one Muhammad 'Abd ar-Ra'uf 'Arafat al-Qudwa al-Husayni at the School of Civil Engineering in 1956. This, Arafat's birth name, means nothing to the Egyptian clerk, who "sits down behind a rickety wooden table, almost completely hidden by the pile of dusty files bound in black leather" and "blows off a layer of grime in a most professional way," then hands over the records. In a blue ink faded by time, the researchers find that their man, living at 24A Baron Empain Street, Heliopolis, "was born on August 4, 1929, in Cairo." With this information in hand, they dash over to the State Registry and find Arafat's actual birth certificate, which confirms the date and place.
Arafat then lived in Cairo until the age of 28 and identified as an Egyptian. His first political affiliation was an Egyptian student organization closed to Palestinians. He fought for an Egyptian group against Israel in 1948-49 and subsequently served in the Egyptian military. He first traveled to Moscow, in 1968, on an Egyptian passport. Arafat all his life has spoken Arabic like an Egyptian, something that has sometimes impeded his career; on first encountering him in 1967, a biographer recounts, "West Bankers did not like his Egyptian accent and ways and found them alien."

Terroristien tapa on valehdella, väännellä totuutta ja muutella sitä omiin tarkoitusperiin sopivaksi. Eli mitään uutta ei ole siinä, että Arafat, keksityllä nimellään, valehtelee keksitystä taustastaan. Tottakai on mukava muistella lapsuuden valheellisia muisteloita, toinen vaihtoehto olisi muistella Moskovaa ja omia terroritekoja. Niistä taas kansa ei välttämättä tykkäisi eikä saisi enää sympatiaääniä Euroopan komuiltakaan.
Vasemmistolaisilla ja terroristeilla on muuten paljon yhteistä. Tuokin, kuinka sokeasti tahdotaan kieltää esim Pim Fortuynin tappajan vasemmistolainen vakaumus. Se on sitä samaa jasser arafatia taas, kyllä ne Moskovassa opettaa joustavaksi totuuden kanssa.
No entäs sitten?
Arafatin äidin suku siis tulee Ramallahista ja isä on Egyptin palestiinalainen?
Egyptin alueellahan asuu palestiinalaisia niinkuin monessa muussakin arabimaassa.
Ja sitte tuo Pim-ahtanut juttu.
Pimin murhaaja ei ole vasemmistolainen vaan PELKÄSTÄÄN eläinaktivisti.
LOPETA JO TUO OMASTA PÄÄSTÄ KEKSIMINEN=VALEHTELEMINEN!!!
Se on muuten fakta, että Arafat syntyi ja kasvoi Egyptissä. Mitä kummaa siinä on, äijä siis satuili itselleen menneisyyden, no sen on terroristien tapa kuten täällä joku jo totesi.
Itse olen muuten tosta Pim jutusta kuullut aika moneen otteeseen että äärivasemmistolainen, asia on mun kohdalta siis selvä. Intä itse sitten vaan selvää asiaa vastaan jos se saa sun olos paremmaksi *puistelee päätään*
Kaikenlaisia...
missä yhteydessä hän on valehdellut syntymäpaikastaan? Itse olen sen tiennyt 70-luvulta saakka ja se on hyvin dokumentoitu vaikkapa tietosanakirjoissa. Siteeraanpa Encyclopaedia Britannicaa (joka, ihan vain tiedoksi, on amerikkalainen julkaisu):
Arafat, Yasir
Born Aug. 24?, 1929, Cairo?
byname of Muhammad 'Abd ar-Ra'uf al-Qudwah al-Husayni president (from 1996) of the Palestinian Authority, chairman (from 1969) of the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO), and leader of Fatah, the largest of the constituent PLO groups. In 1993 he led the PLO to a peace agreement with the Israeli government. 'Arafat and Yitzhak Rabin and Shimon Peres of Israel were jointly awarded the Nobel Prize for Peace in 1994. 'Arafat was one of seven children of a well-to-do merchant whose wife was related to the anti-Zionist grand mufti of Jerusalem, Amin al-Husayni (d. 1974). The date and place of 'Arafat's birth are disputed. A birth certificate registered in Cairo, Egypt, gives August 24, 1929. Some sources, however, have supported 'Arafat's claim to have been born in Jerusalem on August 4, 1929, and still others have given Gaza, Palestine, as his birthplace. 'Arafat attended the University of Cairo, graduating as a civil engineer. He joined the Muslim Brotherhood and the Union of Palestinian Students, of which he was president (1952-56), and was commissioned into the Egyptian army. In 1956 he served in the Suez campaign. After Suez, 'Arafat went to Kuwait, where he worked as an engineer and set up his own contracting firm. In Kuwait he helped found Fatah, which was to become the leading military component of the PLO. After being named chairman of the PLO in 1969, he became commander in chief of the Palestinian Revolutionary Forces in 1971 and, two years later, head of the PLO's political department. Subsequently, he directed his efforts increasingly toward political persuasion rather than confrontation and terrorism against Israel. In November 1974 'Arafat became the first representative of a nongovernmental organization-the PLO-to address a plenary session of the UN General Assembly. In 1982 'Arafat became the target of criticism from Syria and from various Syrian-supported factions within the PLO. The criticisms escalated after the Israeli invasion of Lebanon forced 'Arafat to abandon his Beirut headquarters at the end of August 1982 and set up a new base in Tunisia; he shifted to Baghdad, Iraq, in 1987. 'Arafat was subsequently able to reaffirm his leadership as the split in the PLO's ranks healed. On April 2, 1989, 'Arafat was elected by the Central Council of the Palestine National Council (the governing body of the PLO) to be the president of a hypothetical Palestinian state. In 1993 'Arafat took a further step toward peace when, as head of the PLO, he formally recognized Israel's right to exist and helped negotiate the Israel-PLO accord, which envisaged the gradual implementation of Palestinian self-rule in the West Bank and Gaza Strip over a five-year period. 'Arafat began directing Palestinian self-rule in 1994, and in 1996 he was elected president of the Palestinian Authority, which governed Palestinian-controlled areas of the West Bank and the Gaza Strip. In mid-1996 Israeli-Palestinian relations became acrimonious with the election of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who favoured a slower transition to self-rule. Growing distrust between 'Arafat and Netanyahu resulted in a 19-month-long deadlock, and in 1998 U.S. President Bill Clinton intervened, arranging a summit meeting with the two leaders. The resulting Wye Memorandum detailed the steps to be taken by Israel and Palestine to complete the peace process. 'Arafat pledged to continue the process with Netanyahu's successor, Ehud Barak.
ja loppukaneetti tietysti unohtui kun painoin väärää nappia:
Siis: joskus muinoin Arafat puhui lapsuudestaan Jerusalemissa, mutta en ole siitä kuullut enää vuosikymmeniin. Mitä tapahtui joskus 70-luvulla, kun Arafat oli kiinteästi muakan aseellissa taisteluussa, on hiukan sivuseikka tänään.
Sodassa molemmat puolet valehtelevat minkä ehtivät ja mikä tahansa joka saa joukot uskollisiksi ja kansan tukemaan, on tarpeellista. Valehteminen ja 'fabulointi' ovat sittenkin hiukan eri asioita. Kuinkas moni täällä voi väittää ettei vaikkapa työpaikkahakemuksessa olisi hiukan fabuloinut...
Arafatin palestiinalais-egyptiläinen isä lähetti pojan nelivuotiaana tämä vanhasta jerusalemilaisesta suvusta polveutuvan äidin kuoltua.
Hän asui Jerusalemissa äitinsä sukulaisten luona neljä vuotta ennen paluutaan Egyptiin ja ainoa yksityiskohta jonka olen löytänyt tuolta ajalta on hänen ensimmäinen lapsuusmuistonsa kun brittisotilaat ryntäsivät keskellä yötä taloon, pieksivät perheen ja rikkoivat huonekalut.
Niinpä niin kuka tuntee ainoatakaan poliitikkoa joka puhuisi aina totta ... tai edes useimmiten ... tai oikeastaan, edes joskus?
Tuotapa en tiennyt! Sehän selittää paljon asioita. Täytynee kohottaa arvioitani Arafatista - ei olisi 70-luvulla(kaan) pitänyt uskoa mitä lehdissä kerrotaan.
