He's dead Jim

Word has finally come out that Yasser Arafat is really truly and officially deceased.

I guess the nurses in the hospital were getting tired of the puddle of decomp in his old bed.

Deacon at Powerline says:

Has there ever been a terrorist with more blood on his hands? If you exclude leaders of states (something Arafat never was), I can't think of any.

True. Here's to a nice quiet transfer of power (snicker) and an orderly move cowards true peace (guffaw). And it will be interesting to see which country send whom to the old Egyptian's funeral… One IED would be a wonderful thing.

Rasputin perhaps?
Cardinal Richlieu?

'Terrorist' falls into the same camp as privateers and pirates in my mind as well. And there's plenty of those that I'd have to research to figure out their death count.
