I like the part where they say that Israel "represents the worst form of dispossession known to mankind". I wonder if they've ever made any comment about their fellow communists China who continue to occupy Tibet, in what probably is actually the worst form of disposession known to mankind.

You know, these guys are far more radical than the PLO themselves. The disenchanted youth that has no more struggle to fight, they are just looking for something else to give their lives meaning. And that is what the ANC Youth League are about and that is why they have absolutely ZERO influence on the ANC.

Methinks the commies at COSATU will release something in similar vein.

Yasser's stolen billions

http://www.thesun.co.uk/article/0,,2-2004522351,00.html

BILLIONS of pounds stolen by warmonger Yasser Arafat in 40 years were last night being probed.

As Arafat went into his final hours it emerged that he had creamed off vast sums given to his impoverished people by governments and aid agencies.

There were suspicions he was being kept “alive” — allegedly to give estranged wife Suha time to plunder his Swiss bank accounts.

Although separated from Arafat, she received £55,000 a month and occupies a £10,000-a-night floor of the most luxurious hotel in Paris.

Most Palestinians live on less than £2 a day and exiles want to know how £7million got into her French bank accounts from private Swiss vaults.

Arafat’s stolen millions have financed a ruthless army of fanatics. The International Monetary Fund launched a probe in September after a former bank chief exposed the corruption.

The European Union wants to trace £1.1billion given to Arafat in the past ten years.

Intelligence chiefs fear EU aid rewarded families of Palestinian suicide bombers.

Scores of Arafat allies who arrived in Gaza penniless have mysteriously acquired fortunes.

Many decent Palestinians hope Arafat’s death will end 40 years of conflict with the West.

Arafat has used poverty to stir anger against the West while using income to fund rent-a-mob riots and anti-western propaganda.

An independent poll revealed 85 per cent of Palestinians believe Arafat’s regime is corrupt.

Few will mourn his death.

They hope his successor will seize what may be the last chance of a peaceful, prosperous future and call for talks with Israel about a separate homeland.

What interested me was that this ANCYL response is itself a hijack. How do I say that? Because the ANCYL gives local the SA rhetorical style a free ride on what is essentially a foreign issue. Take another look. You'll see that the statement turns Arafat into an ANC strugglista. He's built up using classic tub-thumping strugglista language. In fact the only thing they DON'T do is actually directly compare the Israeli state and the apartheid state.

'Aluta continua' indeed.

I may be going out on a limb here, but my guess is that this response is intended to satisfy ANC adherents in South Africa rather than PLO adherents in Palestine: this would be the aim of using language familiar to its intended audience, after all...

Absolutely brilliant statement and I couldnt agree more.

Btw, take a look at what John Howard said
http://au.news.yahoo.com/041111/21/roik.html

"Mr Howard says many people regard Yasser Arafat as a terrorist and it is hard to believe that he could not have done more to restrain militant Palestinian groups.

“I think history will judge him very harshly for not having seized the opportunity in the year 2000 to embrace the offer that was very courageously made by the then Israeli Prime Minister, Ehud Barack, which involved the Israelis agreeing to 90 per cent of what the Palestinians had wanted,” he said."

Howard isnt even going to the funeral.

What a pity that they have used all their emotions and their tears and their praise for Arafat. When Mandela (G-d forbid) dies, there will be nothing left to say.

Ah, the enthusiasm of youth - I wonder if they have sent a representative to the funeral. Did you know that our flags are flying at half-mast today and for the next few days? How does one garner such respect and so many accolades? Obviously being moral and reaonable are NOT the route to go - so we have to find a new path. Now let's see .......disenfranchising the masses? There's a start - and one that is familiar - after all, if you watch the outpourings of grief among the Palestinians who Arafat disenfranchised and whose poverty and dire living conditions are directly related to his policies, there must be something in that - kick a dog when it's down, kick it more and in that way earn eternal gratitude from the dying dog!

DWYD

Talk about unintetional comedy!!
Look Who speaks of bank fraud???

LMAO

Nelson Mandela until April 2008 was listed as a terrorist. When evildoers lie they brand freedom fighters as terrorists.You may get away with this evil in this world but not the next.
