Elena Bonner, the widow of Andrei Sakharov, said that she could not “understand or accept” the fact that her late husband and Yasser Arafat shared membership “in the club of Nobel laureates.”

[@Peter1Europe]

"Our Palestinian..." Wasn't he Egyptian ?

[@perdbeer6713]

Do you consider Boris Johnson to be an American?

[@arafatkhan4234]

palestinian parents so ethnically palestinian

[@Jake-tw8pd]

Yes he was a Egyptian Palestinian is a nationality and when he was born the Palestinian Nationality of today didn’t exist

[@truebeliever786]

Okay, in that case all Israeli Prime Ministers except Rabin cannot be considered Israeli or Palestinian, since they were all born outside that land (mainly, in Europe).

[@dors.sc1]

this guy single handedly made up the "palestinians" even claiming to be one himself even though in reality he is from cairo

[@mgigachad3170]

lets say it mean arabs that were born in the holy lands and keep it short by calling them Palestinians.

[@user-tf5lj8fz8m]

This is very bad Thinker about Indians. Congress gave him nobel purskaar that is totally wrong 👎🥺👎👎👎

[@socalpimp1974]

Con man

[@marklaronde6614]

An historically proven abject failure for his cause and his people. His blind unswerving hatred condemned his people to misery, poverty, and hopelessness.....

[@solarr2]

👍🤓😎🇵🇱👍🤘

[@abuseofviolence]

at the end him and his family were billionaires with real-estate in the best locations and massive amounts of shares in big companies. For many war and suffering is a bizness that can make you incredibly rich while the media paints you as a hero. All of this is a tragic comedy. Meanwhile the small people, palestinianes and israelis, died for nothing.

[@Witheredzakidaddyegghead]

Liar Gaddafi had to get his wife a house in Tunisia coz she was broke

[@MikeJones-ck4yt]

​@@Witheredzakidaddyegghead Exactly

[@AdamAdam-vr8yi]

Lol zionist propaganda at its finest

[@user-xo1cp2nw2s]

Not true. Arafat was martyred in his worn-out military uniform. He lived in a small room in his work office in Ramallah. He was accompanied by colleagues and soldiers. He ate with his guards. He did not have money or real estate.

[@batmanrobin6848]

seems slimy

[@KxTOONZ]

Paid off agent all the money is with his damily
