THE ARAFAT MYSTERY PART III.
Twice since this story came alive I have commented on where
it might head and why it may have come to the forefront.

So, why would I talk about this yet again?
Simple, this stories drama may be taking on a new twist.
Was Arafat murdered?
Perhaps.
By whom?
Don't count out his Palestinian rivals / Hamas.
The Israelis?
Perhaps; wouldn't be the first time they went to such
lengths.
If you've watched the news in the past two days, it's easy
to see what most Arabs are waiting for; the confirmation that he was murdered.
It could be a classic example of, don't let the facts get in
the way of a good opinion.
If the French "experts" don't find what his ex
wife hopes they will find, then what?
Is it a cover up by the French?
If they do find he had an unexplainable level of a toxin in
his body, then what?
Who needs this story to ignite massive protest?
Who needs the distraction?
They are on the list, but there are others.
Assad?
He would like anything to distract the region right about
now, given Gaza
fizzled out on him.
Hamas?
I don't think so, although they would play to the anger side
of the story especially if it lead to a West Bank
in turmoil; if you didn't notice... Gaza took it
on the chin again and the West Bank didn't
even lose power for the Soccer matches.
What has changed and who might be able to leverage the story
sooner rather than a few months?
Yep... Mursi...
His miscalculation, and I'm still not sold it was one, on
his new "decrees" could lead to far more trouble than he anticipated.
You see, I'm not so sure the Egyptian Military will not take
this golden opportunity to make one last move on the MB before it really is too
late.
The rest of the world needs this story of Arafat's death to
take as long to unfold as the United Nations Special Tribunal Lebanon
investigation..... 6 years and counting.
Could a report stating Arafat was murdered create a crisis
in the region?
I don't see how it wouldn't.
This story is not going to go away.
