There Are Some Real Conspiracies

Here's a fascinating WSJ article on the origins of that man of peace and freedom, Yassir Arafat. WSJ.com - The KGB's Man . Thanks again to Andrew Sullivaan for pointing to it. This isn't so much a "conspiracy" as a strategy seeking to take advantage of the gullibility of the European and American Left's "anti-Zionism and anti-Imperialism." I wonder how many people know that Arafat isn't even Palestinian either by ethnicity or place of birth. I think it's clear that there won't be any progress on a Palestinian/Israeli settlement until Arafat is pushing up daisies.

I haven't triangulated this information, so I have some doubts about its authenticity, but it does "fit." And it does establish Arafat as a cultivated hothouse totalitarian flower of evil.
