Yasser, that's our money

It was reported yesterday that Arafat's soon-to-be widow is fighting a fierce battle to prohibit access to her comatose husband to his lieutenants in the Palestinian Authority. It's not so much about his successor in power, however, but over control of the money he's accumulated during his career of good works.

Shouldn't the Palestinian people rise up in fury over the fact that Arafat has been able to squirrel away so many millions while he was supposedly fighting for the oppressed? The money ultimately came from other Muslim nations, from the U.N. and American taxpayers. So why aren't WE rising up in fury?
