Regarding Yasser Arafat and his condition, I could never be as eloquent as avari-nameh. Please see the post here.
In light of the above link, I would like to bring your attention to an article by Ha'aretz. Apparently, the Israelis will not let Arafat be buried in Jerusalem near the Al Aqsa Mosque.
"Palestinians and Israelis drew battle lines Friday over the future burial site of the stricken Yasser Arafat, as Israel rejected out of hand a declaration by the chief Palestinian Islamic cleric, who said Arafat had voiced the desire to be buried close to the Al Aqsa Mosque in Jerusalem."
