PA: Arafat Was Poisoned by Jews Like Islam's Prophet Muhammad


(Palestinian Media Watch) Itamar Marcus and Nan Jacques Zilberdik - In a sermon broadcast on official PA TV on Nov. 8, 2013, the Palestinian Authority Minister of Religious Affairs, Mahmoud Al-Habbash, compared Arafat's death to that of Islam's Prophet Muhammad, saying both were poisoned and murdered by Jews. On his deathbed, Muhammad told his wife Aisha that the pain he was experiencing was caused by poisoned meat that he was given by the Jews in Khaibar three years earlier. Al-Habbash preached that Arafat was murdered in the same way as Muhammad. "Yasser Arafat died a Martyr - we don't have the slightest doubt that they (i.e., the Jews/Israelis) killed him."
