As I hinted in one of my comments back in October, Arafat was indeed treated by a French Jewish doctor at the Clamart hospital. It was revealed in Maariv on December 15 that this Jewish doctor was part of the medical team in charge of Arafat.

Sure enough today, the Arab daily Al Quds Al Arabi jumped on the information, and explained that this element proved the theory that Arafat was indeed poisoned. The usual conspiracy theory lives on....
