CNN is reporting that Arafat is on life support while officials and family members decide where he is to be buried. Islamic custom holds that burial is to be within 24 hours after death, but a site has not yet been found. Israeli PM Sharon has refused Arafat's request for a burial in Jerusalem, citing Jerusalem as the "burial ground for Jewish kings, not Arab terrorists."



I think Israel allowing Arafat to be burried in Jerusalem would be a good show of faith towards towards the Palastinians to have the violence stopped. Sharon isn't going to stop the terrorism.



I'm not at all convinced Sharon wants peace. I have no idea what to expect upon Arafat's death, which now seems only a matter of a very short time.
