Yep . From http://www.abcnews.go.com/reference/bios/arafat.html= : " Arafat=92s mother died when he was 4 [ 1933 ], and his father sent him to live with a married uncle in Jerusalem.

The notion of "dominion" over a region is unlibertarian . The State's purpose is to ensure every individual's equal right to dominion over their individual property . Arafat has his particular claims , as does each denizen of the Middle East . Immediate familial inheritance is a very powerful claim . -- =A0Bob Armstrong -- http://CoSy.com -- 212-285-1864 http://CoSy.com/K/CoSy.htm : =A0Ultimate NoteComputing =A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A02002/08/07 12:12:16 PM
