Arafat soon to meet his maker?

Yasser Arafat, international terrorist and glorified icon of the United Nations, collapsed Wednesday, and is apparently in seriously ill health.

Arafat was eating soup during a meeting with Qureia, Abbas and another official between 8 p.m. and 9 p.m. (2 p.m. or 3 p.m. EDT) when he vomited, according to a bodyguard who was in the compound at the time.

The 75-year-old Arafat was brought to the clinic inside the compound, where he collapsed and was unconscious for about 10 minutes, the guard said. His doctors were urgently summoned.

On news that Arafat's health was worsening, scores of top Palestinian officials descended on the sandbagged, partially demolished Ramallah compound where he has been confined for 2 1/2 years. The officials milled around the courtyard, waiting for news outside Arafat's three-story building, bathed in spotlights.

I hope this is the beginning of the end for Arafat. He should have been pushing up daisies years ago at the hands of the Israeli government.
