CC: Good evening.
The man who was the father of the Palestinian political movement, a chief architect of the state of Palestine, and a hero to the Palestinian people, Yasser Arafat has died.
At 3:30 am Paris time, Yasser Arafat died of an undisclosed illness.
World leaders are sending their condolences to the Arafat family, including President George Bush and former President Bill Clinton, who stated the pinnacle of Arafat’s political life was the Helsinki accords signed between Israel and Palestine on the White House lawn in 1993.
Both leaders are now dead.
Many questions linger at this time, as Yasser Arafat’s body is being flown home to his resting place a few feet from his office in his Palestinian compound in Ramalla.
For many there will never be a replacement for Arafat, the flamboyant, charismatic leader is, perhaps, one of the last of the colorful leaders that emerged in the early sixties with the likes of President Kennedy, Nikita Khrushchev, Charles De Gaulle, Anwar Sadat, and Fidel Castro.
Yasser Arafat, dead at 75.
