PREPARING THE UNDERGROUND CHURCH
BY MICHAEL BUNKER
A PERILOUS TIME: CHRISTIANITY IN THE CROSSROADS
A Perilous Time http://www.lazarusunbound.com/aptbook.shtml
True Christianity in the Crosshairs
Michael Bunker
What are the two biggest institutions of the past 200+ years? Why, church and state, of
course. In APT, Michael Bunker takes a sledgehammer to these two behemoths, which
have largely directed history to the point we find ourselves today. What's more, the book
offers the reader clear biblical alternatives to the bondage in which the Institution of
Church, in concert with the Globalist government cabal, has placed us.
EagleEye, the Associate Editor at SIPL News, had this to say about Bunker's latest
offering:"Michael Bunker's message rings clear and true. It is simple one, really. Wake
up. While the truths brought forth in APT are INDISPUTABLE, that does not make them
"palatable." As I read on uncomfortably, I was reminded in the Spirit that Jesus did not
come to bring us peace and harmony, but a sword. Such is the way of TRUTH."
Here are some of the Chapter titles: A Consensus of Fools, The Culture of Compromise,
The Underground Church, Pacifism for Dummies, The Pride Cult, A Time to Stand.
Folks, this is A MUST READ for any person or group interested in sincere and unfettered
truth.

Arafats Final Days
Mohammed Abdel Raouf Arafat al-Qudwa Al-Husseini, more commonly
known as Yasser Arafat was the fifth of seven children born to a
Palestinian textile merchant on August 24, 1929. According to Arafat
and other sources, he was born in Jerusalem; however, French
biographers, Christophe Boltanski and Jihan El-Tahri revealed in their
1997 book, Les sept vies de Yasser Arafat, that he was actually born in
Cairo, Egypt, and that is where his birth certificate was registered. The
Palestinian Academic Society for the Study of International Affairs also
lists Arafats birthplace as Cairo. Ian Pacepa, a former Romanian
intelligence official, disclosed that the KGB had invented a background
for Arafat with a birthplace in Jerusalem.
Claims that Arafat was related to the Jerusalem Husseini clan through
his mother have been disputed by the Palestinian historian Said
Aburish. In an unauthorized biography, Aburish claims that The young
Arafat sought to establish his Palestinian credentials and promote his
eventual claim to leadership... [and] could not afford to admit any facts
which might reduce his Palestinian identity. ...Arafat insistently
perpetuated the legend that he had been born in Jerusalem and was
related to the important Husseini clan of that city.
Arafats childhood was divided between Cairo and Jerusalem, where he
lived for four years with an uncle following the death of his mother
when he was five. Arafat entered the University of King Faud I (later
renamed Cairo University) in 1947 and studied engineering. It was
during his college years that Arafat adopted the name Yasser, which
means easygoing in Arabic.
During the 1948 Arab-Israeli war, Arafat left the university and, along
with other Palestinians, sought to enter Palestine to fight for Palestinian
independence. He was disarmed and turned back by Egyptian military
forces that refused to allow the poorly trained partisans to enter the
war zone. After returning to the university, Arafat joined the Muslim
Brotherhood and served as president of the Union of Palestinian
Students from 1952 to 1956. By 1956, Arafat graduated with a
bachelors degree in civil engineering and served as a second
lieutenant in the Egyptian Army during the Suez Crisis.
The PLO
After the Suez War, Arafat moved to Kuwait, where he found work as
an engineer and eventually set up his own contracting firm. In Kuwait,
he also helped found Fatah in 1957, an organization dedicated to the
establishment of an independent Palestinian state in place of Israel and
Jordan (i.e., historic Palestine).
Backed by Syria, Fatah began carrying out terrorist raids against Israeli
targets, starting with an unsuccessful attempt to blow up an Israeli
water pump in December 1964. From that point on, Fatah launched
dozens of raids against civilian Israeli targets from Jordan, Lebanon and
Egyptian-occupied Gaza to avoid provoking reprisals against their
Syrian patrons.
When the a coup occurred in Syria in 1966, a new leader was
appointed to head Fatah, but he was murdered. Arafat, who took the
nom de guerre Abu Ammar, was then arrested by the Syrians, but was
subsequently released and fled to Beirut with his inner circle.
Arafat Takes Over

In 1964, the Arab League created the Palestine Liberation Organization
(PLO) as a tool in the war against Israel. Arafats Fatah, which initially
viewed the organization as a political opponent, gradually became the
organizations dominant faction. Following the humiliating defeat of the
Arab forces in the 1967 War; the PLO decided that it could not rely on
the Arab states to achieve its objective of destroying Israel. For the
next ten years, this goal was the primary focus of the massive terrorist
campaign by which the PLOs reputation was formed.
Meanwhile, Fatah established a base in the Jordanian city of Karameh.

This was the target of an Israeli assault planned in reprisal for a
terrorist attack against a school bus full of children that killed two and
wounded 28 on March 18, 1968. Three days later, the Israelis dropped
leaflets on Karameh warning of an impending attack and advising
civilians to leave. When the Israeli forces arrived, they met unexpected
resistance from forces of the regular Jordanian army. In the ensuing
battle, from which Arafat fled after distributing weapons, the Israelis
said they suffered 28 dead and 90 wounded, whereas the Jordanians
had 100 dead and 90 wounded, and 170 terrorists had been killed and
200 captured. The Jordanian account virtually reversed these figures,
claiming 200 Israeli dead compared to only 20 of their soldiers. The
Palestinian version presented an entirely different picture, claiming
their heroic resistance had caused 500 Israeli casualties.
Although its account was dubious, the Arab media glorified the
Palestinian stand against the Israelis at Karameh (much to the chagrin
of the Jordanians who did most of the fighting), and the effect was to
stimulate a wave of volunteers seeking to join the PLO. The Palestinian
terrorists escalated their attacks throughout the year, with the casualty
toll in 1968 alone reaching 177 Israeli dead and 700 wounded, and 681
Palestinians were killed and wounded in attacks and reprisals.
The victory at Karameh allowed Arafat to gain the prestige he
needed to exert greater influence over the PLO. The Palestinian
National Council met in 1968 and revised the Charter, adopting Fatah's
commitment to liberate Palestine by armed struggle alone. A year
later, when the Council met again, Arafat was elected chairman of the
PLO, a position he has held ever since. Over the next year, Arafat
consolidated his power by bringing most of the militant Palestinian
factions under the umbrella of the PLO.
Challenging King Hussein

In the late 1960s, tensions between Palestinians and the Jordanian
government intensified; heavily armed Palestinian resistance elements
(fedayeen) had created a virtual state within a state in Jordan,
eventually controlling several strategic positions, including the oil
refinery near Az Zarq. Jordan considered this a growing threat to its
sovereignty and security and attempted to disarm the Palestinian
militias. Open fighting erupted in June of 1970.
The final straw for King Hussein occurred when Palestinian terrorists
flew three hijacked planes to Jordan and blew them up on September
12, 1970. Four days later, Hussein declared martial law. That same
day, Arafat became commander of the Palestine Liberation Army (PLA),
the regular military force of the PLO. In the ensuing civil war, the PLO
had the active support of Syria, which invaded Jordan with a force of
around 200 tanks. The fighting was mainly between the Jordanian army
and the PLA; the U.S. Navy dispatched the Sixth Fleet to the eastern
Mediterranean and Israel deployed troops to aid Hussein, if necessary.

By September 24, the Jordanian army had defeated the Palestinian
forces. Most of the Palestinian leadership, including Arafat (who
disguised himself as a Kuwaiti official), fled to Syria, and later Lebanon,
where they soon set about undermining the central government of that
country.
The change in location did not effect Arafats commitment to terror. In
September 1972, a terrorist arm of Fatah, named Black September for
the debacle in Jordan, murdered 11 Israeli athletes at the Munich
Olympic Games. This attracted international attention for the
Palestinian cause, but also condemnation for the tactics of the PLO.
On March 2, 1973, members of the PLO murdered U.S. Ambassador to
the Sudan Cleo Noel and charg d'affaires George Moore. The killers
were captured by Sudan and admitted they had received orders
directly from the PLO. U.S. intelligence officials were believed to also
have evidence directly tying Arafat to the killings, but for unknown
reasons suppressed. All the terrorists were released
Aftermath of the 1973 War

After Arab armies were defeated yet again on the battlefield in the
October 1973 War, Arafat decided it was necessary to alter his
strategy. The PLO remained committed to the liberation of Palestine
through armed struggle, but decided to shift from strictly terrorist
activities to waging a diplomatic war against Israel.
Arafat deftly manipulated the organization from one perceived by the
(Western) public as barbaric into one slowly being considered a
movement with legitimate claims. This new tack was aided by the allimportant recognition of the PLO by the United Nations, which gave the
organization a foothold into the international bodys deliberations. On
November 13, 1974, Arafat made an unprecedented appearance
before the UN, wearing his military uniform with an empty holster [he
was forced to remove his pistol before entering the chamber] around
his waist,. and declared, Today I have come bearing an olive branch
and a freedom fighter's gun. Do not let the olive branch fall from my
hand.
Jordans claims to represent the Palestinians were then permanently
undercut by the Arab Leagues declaration at the Rabat Conference
that the PLO was the sole legitimate representative of the Palestinian
people. This also enhanced the PLO's standing as a political movement.
Life in Lebanon
While Arafat adopted an increasingly high profile diplomatic pose, the
PLO continued to employ terror against Israel, primarily from its new
base in southern Lebanon. Because of Lebanons weak central
government, the PLO was able to operate virtually as an independent
state (called Fatahland by Israel). The PLO helped destabilize
Lebanon and contributed to the civil war, during which Arafat and the
PLO were responsible for the persecution and murder of thousands of

Lebanese citizens.
Palestinian fighters also mounted intermittent cross-border attacks
against Israel, which provoked repeated Israeli counterattacks in an
effort to prevent the Palestinians from threatening Israelis in the north.
Finally, in June 1982, Israel mounted a full-scale assault that escalated
into the Lebanon War. In September, the United States brokered a
cease-fire deal in which Arafat and his leadership were sent to Tunisia,
which became his base of operations for the next decade.
Although a tiny minority at the time advocated negotiations with the
PLO, the vast majority of Israelis believed that they could not negotiate
with terrorists committed to their destruction. Israeli officials held out
hope that a group of moderate Palestinian leaders would emerge in the
West Bank and Gaza who would be willing to reach an agreement. The
problem was that no such leadership could emerge because of the
influence of the PLO. Anyone who cooperated with the Israelis was
considered a collaborator and in constant danger of being killed by
Arafats supporters.
Even though the PLO itself remained fractured, Arafat was considered
(by virtually everyone but the Israelis and Americans) to be the
spokesmen for the Palestinians inside and outside the territories. Most
countries understood this and were willing to work with Arafat, and the
Europeans, especially, pressured Israel to accept him as a negotiating
partner.
For his part, Arafat refused to express any willingness to abandon the
goal of destroying Israel or using terror to accomplish his objective.
This made it impossible for any mainstream Israeli politician to
advocate talks with Arafat (though many leftists met with him and
other PLO officials).
Exiled in Tunisia
During the 1980s, Arafat became a globe-trotter, jet-setting from
capital to capital to build diplomatic support for the Palestinian cause.
Arafat received assistance from Iraq, which allowed him to reconstruct
the badly-battered PLO. This was particularly useful during the first
uprising when, after first being surprised by the outbreak and
persistence of the violence, Arafats Fatah took control of the revolt in
the West Bank and Gaza Strip.
Arafat also continued to orchestrate international terror activities. One
of the most heinous was the hijacking of the Achille Lauro cruise ship
on October 7, 1985, during which Palestinian terrorists shot a
wheelchair-bound Jewish passenger named Leon Klinghoffer and
dumped his body overboard.
As he had in 1974, however, Arafat shifted tactics again, this time in
response to prodding from the United States. In a December 13, 1988,
address, Arafat accepted UN Security Council Resolution 242, promised
future recognition of Israel, and renounced terrorism in all its forms,

including state terrorism.
This statement satisfied the conditions for opening a dialogue between
the PLO and the United States. Up to this point, the United. States. had
gone along with Israeli opposition to any formal contacts between
American and PLO officials (though many informal discussions had
taken place over the years).
Arafats statement was supposed to reflect a shift from one of the
PLOs primary aims the destruction of Israel (as in the Palestinian
National Covenant) toward the establishment of two separate
entities, an Israeli state within the 1949 armistice lines and a
Palestinian state in the West Bank and the Gaza Strip. However, 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
the proclaimed State of Palestine, an entity which laid claim to the
whole of Palestine as defined by the British Mandate.
The PLO squandered the opportunity the United States offered by
continuing terrorist attacks. In May 1990, the Palestine Liberation Front
attacked the beaches near Tel Aviv, aiming to raid hotels and the U.S.
Embassy. This was the final straw for the Bush Administration, which
suspended its dialogue with the PLO and refocused its attention on
efforts to persuade Palestinians in the territories to talk directly with
the Israelis.
The Peace Process Begins

U.S. policymakers recognized that agreement on Israeli-Palestinian
negotiations wasnt likely until the Arab states took steps toward peace
with Israel. It was toward this end that U.S. Secretary of State James
Baker shuttled to the Middle East in 1991 and won agreement from
Israel and her neighbors to attend a regional peace conference.
Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Shamir had labored to keep the PLO out
of the negotiations, but he ultimately bowed to the reality that the
Palestinians in the territories were not strong enough to make
decisions and that they were forced to take directions from Tunis.
During the 1991 Madrid Conference, Israel conducted open
negotiations with the PLO for the first time.
No agreements came out of the Madrid talks and elections brought
new leaders to power in Israel and the United States. Shortly
thereafter, Israelis and PLO officials began secretly negotiating in Oslo
and ultimately reached an agreement to give the Palestinians self-rule
in Gaza and Jericho to be followed by autonomy in other parts of the
territories. Under the Oslo agreement, Israel and the PLO recognized
each other in an exchange of letters between Arafat and Prime Minister
Yitzhak Rabin.
On September 13, 1993, the Declaration of Principles between the
Israelis and Palestinians was signed in Washington, D.C. The following
year, Arafat was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize along with Shimon
Peres and Yitzhak Rabin.
Explaining Arafats Reversal

The price of Israeli recognition of the PLO amounted to Arafats
seemingly total capitulation to Israeli demands: recognition of Israel,
renunciation of terrorism, and a promise to revoke the provisions of its
covenant that call for the destruction of the Jewish State. Israels
concession was that it legitimized the PLO on the basis of its words
without first testing to see that its deeds were consistent with them.
One important reason for Arafats shift was the collapse of the Soviet
Union. The end of the Cold War eliminated a major source of financial
and political support for the Palestinian cause. The PLOs financial
problems did not reach crisis proportions, however, until the Gulf War,
when Arafats decision to support Iraq alienated its benefactors in the
Gulf, notably Saudi Arabia and Kuwait. The lack of money put
constraints on the PLOs activities, in particular its ability to provide
benefits to Palestinians whose loyalty to the organization was largely a
result of these payoffs. In addition, Arafat came under increasing
criticism for mismanagement and corruption.
While the PLOs resources were declining, Islamic fundamentalists were
growing in power, particularly in the Gaza Strip. Moderate Palestinian
leaders in the territories, such as Faisel Husseini, also were becoming
increasingly influential at Arafats expense.
The intifada also had proved a failure. The insurrection had generated
tremendous publicity and tarnished Israels image in 1988-89, but the
Gulf crisis erased the memories of the clashes between rock-throwing
youths and Israeli soldiers. By 1992, the fiery intifada was little more
than an ember that no longer attracted media attention or concerned
Israeli decision- makers.
The most important factor in determining the timing of Arafats
decision was probably the change in American administrations, which
forced Arafat to give up hope that the United States would impose his
conditions on Israel. While George Bush was seen as the most
sympathetic president the Palestinians had ever dealt with, Bill Clinton
was viewed as clearly pro-Israel. This meant that the Palestinians
would have to wait at least four years and hope another Bush would
come along, but they realized this was unlikely. Thus, the American
electoral cycle, combined with his own age and waning influence,
convinced Arafat that his only chance of retaining power was to
demonstrate that he could deliver an agreement that would finally end
his peoples suffering.
Oslos Demise
On July 1, 1994, Arafat arrived in Gaza and assumed control over the
Palestinian Authority (PA) the provisional entity created by the Oslo
Accords. On January 20, 1996, Arafat was elected president of the PA
(he is also known by the Arabic word rais or head), with an

overwhelming 83% majority (the only other candidate was Samiha
Khalil). Though he was to serve for only three years, no other
presidential elections have ever been held.
Despite Arafats pledges, violence continued throughout the end of the
decade, with more than 100 Israelis being killed and 1,000 injured in
terrorist attacks. Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak then decided that
rather than further draw out the negotiating process with the
Palestinians, he would go directly to the end game and try to achieve a
peace agreement. President Clinton agreed with this idea and called
for a summit meeting with Arafat and Barak at Camp David on July 1114, 2000, with the goal of hammering out the end to the conflict.
Clinton hoped to recreate the magic of Jimmy Carters successful
summit that helped bring about peace between Israel and Egypt. In
that case, however, Carter had two willing partners. Anwar Sadat had
already demonstrated to Israel that he was prepared to make peace
and, when he accepted the compromises offered at Camp David,
Menachem Begin agreed to give up the Sinai. Clinton found a different
situation; Arafat had done little in the seven years since Oslo to
convince Israelis he had given up his dream of destroying Israel.
Nevertheless, Barak came prepared to offer the Palestinians
independence and offered a series of formulations to resolve the major
issues. Arafat not only rejected all of the American and Israeli ideas, he
refused to offer any of his own. As a result, Clinton blamed the
summits failure on Arafat.
Israel agreed to withdraw from 97% of the West Bank, 100% of the
Gaza Strip, dismantle most of the settlements, and create a Palestinian
state with East Jerusalem as its capital. The only concessions Arafat
had to make were to acknowledge Israeli sovereignty over the parts of
the Western Wall religiously significant to Jews (that is, not the entire
Temple Mount), and to agree to three early warning stations in the
Jordan Valley, which Israel would withdraw from after six years.
The Palestinian negotiators wanted to accept the deal, but Arafat
rejected it. According to the principal U.S. peace negotiator, Dennis
Ross, the critical issue was the clause in the agreement that said the
conflict would now be over. Arafat, whose life has been governed by
that conflict, Ross said, simply could not end it.
A series of horrific terror attacks were carried out over the next several
weeks including two gunmen opening fire on a bus stop, which killed
two and wounded injured dozens more; suicide bombings in a
pedestrian mall in Jerusalem and two others in Haifa; and a bomb and
gunfire attack on a bus. After Israeli Minister of Tourism Rehavam
Ze'evi was assassinated, and more than 30 other Israelis were
murdered and several hundred were wounded, Israels new Prime
Minister, Ariel Sharon, declared Arafat irrelevant and, on December
22, 2001, sent troops into his headquarters in Ramallah to confine him
to his office. Sharon said that Arafat would remain isolated until the
killers of Ze'evi were arrested and extradited to Israel. Arafat refused
and appealed to the international community to pressure Israel to end
its siege.
The level of violence continued to escalate while Arafat ignored
repeated warnings from the Bush Administration to take steps to
prevent attacks against Israelis. By mid-2002, President Bush was
convinced that Arafat was deeply involved in directing terror, and
concluded that the only hope for achieving progress in the peace
process was for the Palestinians to find a new leader.
Not only the Americans had soured on Arafat. Palestinian youths
became increasingly disillusioned by what they perceived as the
plodding dictatorial and corrupt nature of the PLO, and Arafat's failure
to deliver on his promise to liberate Palestine. Many of these
Palestinians turned to the Muslim fundamentalist organizations, Islamic
Jihad and Hamas, which never accepted the Oslo accords, and
remained committed to the use of terror to drive the Israelis out of all
of Palestine.
Arafats Revolving Door

Under pressure from the United States, Arafat did periodically take
steps against the violence, condemning attacks and arresting low-level
terrorists. The problem was that his condemnations were typically in
English and couched in equivocations that accused Israel of terrorism
as well. In Arabic, he would call for a jihad against Israel and a million
martyrs to liberate Jerusalem. The men he arrested were also released
after a few weeks or months, and many subsequently committed acts
of terror. Israels view was that Arafat either could stop the violence
and chose not to, or had no control over militant Palestinians. In either
case, they said it made no sense to negotiate with him since the result
was the same violence.
Sharons view that Arafat directed the terror was given greater
credence in early January 2002, when Israeli forces stopped a ship, the
Karine-A, bound for the Palestinian Authority carrying 50 tons of
weapons from Iran that were paid for by one of Arafat's top aides. The
shipment also marked a turning point in Arafats relations with
President Bush, who demanded an explanation for the arms shipment.
U.S. intelligence confirmed Israels information that Arafat was behind
the smuggling operation, so when Arafat denied any involvement, the
President knew he was being lied to, and subsequently would not trust
Arafat.
Following a new wave of terror, Israeli tanks rolled into the major cities
of the West Bank on March 28, 2002, surrounding them and imposing
curfews in what was called Operation Defensive Shield. Sharon also
went beyond his earlier castigation of Arafat as irrelevant and labeled
him an enemy of Israel and surrounded his compound with tanks.
The fact that no Arab state came to the Palestinians rescue, as Arafat
had expected, showed how thin the support for the Palestinians really
was in Arab capitals. Although he once again emerged as a survivor,
avoiding deportation, which Sharon favored, and assassination, which
the Palestinians feared, Arafats prestige was also severely damaged.
Israel kept Arafat isolated in his Ramallah headquarters for the next
two years. During that time, Arafat continued to rule the PA, and to
receive a steady stream of foreign visitors, but he lost his position on
the world stage and was rarely seen or heard from.
Reshuffling the Palestinian Deck

The decline in Arafats popularity was reinforced by Israels refusal to
negotiate with him and the United States insistence that the
Palestinian Authority institute reforms. In response, Arafat reshuffled
his cabinet and promised to hold new elections. Arafats actions were
still being viewed both by Palestinians and others as suspect because
the cabinet changes did not reflect any meaningful shift in power.
On June 24, 2002, Bush laid out a plan that called on the Palestinians
to replace Arafat as their leader, reform the governmental institutions
of the Palestinian Authority, end terrorism, and adopt democratic and
free-market principles. The President agreed with the Israeli view that
Arafat had to be replaced, and that terrorism had to end, before they
were required to act.
The Palestinians were angry and felt betrayed. They did not believe the
United States had the right to tell them who their leader should be, and
continued to insist that Israel had to withdraw from all the territories
before they would end their violent struggle.
Despite the Palestinians response, the Bush plan stimulated changes
in the Palestinian Authority. Desperate to hold onto power, Arafat
offered a reform plan and a timetable for new elections. Palestinians
who had been cowed into silence by Arafats unquestioned authority
for the first time began to speak out about the Palestinian Authoritys
corruption and the need for changes.
Under international pressure, Arafat subsequently appointed Mahmud
Abbas (Abu Mazen) to be the Prime Minister of the Palestinian
Authority. The United States had hoped Abbas would become the
authority of the PA and Arafat would be reduced to a figurehead. Arafat
saw things just the reverse and maintained authority over all the main
levers of power, in particular the security services. In frustration, Abbas
resigned and was replaced by Ahmed Korei (Abu Alaa), who had no
more success than Abbas in wresting control of the PA from Arafat.
Arafats Source of Power

In addition to being a symbol of the Palestinian national movement,
Arafat also derived much of his influence by controlling a vast financial
empire first established by the PLO through its criminal activities and
later augmented by hundreds of millions of dollars siphoned from
donations by the international community to the Palestinian Authority.

Rather than use these resources to live the kind of luxurious lifestyle
typified by other Arab despots, Arafat has used his money primarily to
buy loyalty.
In 2003, a team of American accountants hired by the PA finance
ministry began examining Arafats finances. The team determined that
part of the Palestinian leaders wealth was in a secret portfolio worth
close to $1 billion with investments in companies like a Coca-Cola
bottling plant in Ramallah, a Tunisian cell phone company and venture
capital funds in the U.S. and the Cayman Islands. The head of the
investigation stated that although the money for the portfolio came
from public funds like Palestinian taxes, virtually none of it was used
for the Palestinian people; it was all controlled by Arafat. And none of
these dealings were made public.
The International Monetary Fund (IMF) conducted an audit of the
Palestinian Authority and discovered that Arafat diverted $900 million
in public funds to a special bank account controlled by Arafat and the
PA Chief Economic Financial Advisor. It was, therefore, not surprising
when Forbes ranked Arafat sixth on its 2003 list of Kings, Queens and
Despots, estimating his personal wealth at a minimum of $300
million.
Arafats wife Suha reportedly receives a stipend of $100,000 each
month from the PA budget. In October 2003, the French government
opened a money-laundering probe of Suha after prosecutors learned
about regular transfers of nearly $1.27 million from Switzerland to Mrs.
Arafats accounts in Paris.
Arafats Final Days

In 1990, Arafat, a Sunni Muslim, married Suha Tawil, a Palestinian
Greek Orthodox Christian who converted to Islam before marrying him.
At the time, Arafat was 62 and Suha 28. Suha's mother, a Palestinian
activist and writer, introduced Arafat to her daughter, who was then
studying at the Sorbonne. Arafat subsequently hired Suha to work on
his personal staff in Tunis. In July 1995, the couple had a daughter
Zawha, named after Arafats deceased mother. After the start of the
second uprising, Suha moved to live with her mother and daughter in
Paris.
Arafat survived several assassination attempts over the years, as well
as a plane crash in a sandstorm in the Libyan desert on April 7, 1992.
For the last several years of his life he was in failing health and
rumored to have Parkinson's Disease. His conditioned worsened in
October 2004. Israel agreed to allow him to be transferred to a hospital
in Paris on October 29 where his wife stayed by his side. He died
November 11, 2004, at age 75.
After his death, Arafats body was flown from Paris to Cairo, where a
ceremony was held in his honor attended by numerous foreign
dignitaries. Arafats remains were then flown to Ramallah where he

was interred in a grave near his headquarters. The Palestinians had
wanted to bury Arafat in Jerusalem, but the Israelis objected. In the
short-run, the Palestinians plan to make Arafats grave a shrine, but
they have expressed the intention of moving his body to Jerusalem
after achieving independence and establishing a capital in some part
of the holy city.
For nearly half a century Arafat was the symbol of Palestinian
nationalism. Though he was not a military man, he was rarely seen out
of his uniform in an effort to project strength and his commitment to
armed struggle. He wore his kaffiyeh in a unique fashion, draped over
his shoulder in the shape of Palestine, that is, all of historic Palestine,
including Israel. The high-profile terrorist attacks he directed helped
gain international attention and sympathy for the Palestinian cause,
but, ultimately, his unwillingness to make the psychological leap from
terrorist mastermind to statesman prevented him from achieving
independence for the Palestinian people, and brought them decades of
suffering that could have been avoided had he abandoned his
revolutionary zeal for liberating Palestine and agreed to live in peace
with Israel.

European Parliament strongly endorses Constitution
12.01.2005 - 14:00 CET | By Honor Mahony
EUOBSERVER / BRUSSELS - The European Parliament has voted
overwhelmingly in favour of the EU Constitution in a non-binding but
politically symbolic vote.
On Wednesday morning (12 January), 500 MEPs voted in favour,
137 voted against and 40 abstained.

"The result of the vote makes it very clear. I think that the extent of
the support is very important", said Parliament president Josep
Borrell.
He said that it means that 74% voted in favour and it "far
exceeded" expectations.
The report endorsed by the parliament says that the Constitution is
a "vast improvement" on the current treaties.
Ratification
Luxembourg prime minister Jean-Claude Juncker, who currently
heads the EU, also welcomed the result.
"I wanted to say how happy I am with this broad majority.
Obviously, this is an important moment in the history of
parliament", he said.
He also said that it was important for the EU's long road to
ratification - all 25 member states must ratify it before it can come
into force.
During a plenary debate on Tuesday, MEPs urged governments to
strongly support the 460-article treaty, which streamlines EU
decision-making and gives more power to the European Parliament,
Protest
Before and after Wednesday's vote, several MEPs, held up placards
saying "not in my name" and "this Constitution is Europe's death".
Mr Borrell, who struggled to get the protestors to take down their
placards, later remarked that no one could call the European
Parliament boring any more.
The protestors booed loudly after the strong result came in. Those
voting no or abstaining came from the far-right, the left, the
eurosceptic ID group, the UK conservatives and the Czech ODS
party.
In a press conference after the vote, Mr Borrell said "it would be
exaggerated to say that it is a large group" adding that "it is only
20%".
