How many Billions of $'s did Arafat steal from the Pal's from 82 until his death ? Where are the front page stories in the Arab newspapers explaining where all the money has gone for the last 30 years ?

I mean the culture seems to support that path The death cult culture was in part a creation of Arafat. Arafat thrived on the conflict. All his life he operated as a ganster, setting one band of gangsters against another, il capo di tutti capi. If he had been replaced by someone who was actually local to Palestine, that man might have actually wanted to build a state for the Palestinians. Arafat never did. He just stole the money or used it for patronage and guns. Again, why don't you read some actual history, not just three paragraphs in Wikipedia, and ask yourself, what made things turn out as they did, not some other way?
