Don't forget that they failed to save his life after giving him full military honors upon his arrival in France.

France is a socialist country, and this has more to do with it. Arafat was a socialist, and socialists stick together.

I've been there, and they have a real racial struggle with their muslim population, and they've been the victim of islamic fundamentalist terrorism for many years, whereas we in the U.S. are relatively "new" to it.
