This is funny .... Even Osama bin Laden has trouble remembering all of his 51 siblings. When asked once by a reporter to list their names, he could barely recall a dozen before giving up amid his own laughter.

<< One can have both, and Arafat is not stupid. >>

I measure one's capabilities by what they do. I marvel at the skills involved in building a World Trade Center, or teaching children how to read or do math. I marvel at those that can invent or implant a man-made heart, and at those that can put men on the moon.

What is Arafat's great contribution to the world, or to his people, attesting to his intelligence?????

<< Arafat missed taking over Jordan in the early seventies. He misses taking over Lebanon in the early eighties. He hopes, and definitely doesn't care counting his people dying, ... >>

A man of great humanity, wisdom and skill.

<< Which leader in that area ever cared for the people he send to certain death ? >>

The Arab nations keep their people in poverty, without much opportunity, while the leaders, their families and their friends split billions in oil dollars. All this while teaching their people to yell: "God is great"! Do you think that I'm not giving Arab leaders enough credit?
