JPost: Report: EU panel finds Arafat did not fund terror

[GRClarkesq]

A week after the German paper Die Weld reported suspicion is growing that money from PA Chairman Yasser Arafat's office was transferred to terror organizations, the French daily Liberation reported Wednesday that a report being prepared by the EU's anti-fraud unit (OLAF) will show no financial ties between Arafat and terror.

1. hmmm

considering this comes from the EU via the right-wing JPost, I don't know that we can take it too seriously

anyone have some left-wing confirmations/leaks w/o the EU involved?

2. Why not trust it? It's a 'declaration against interest', coming from the

rightwingers. Their preferred assertion would be that Arafat DOES fund terror.

3. Hey, isn't this the same wacky EU that thought Iraq didn't have WMDs?

Oh, wait, they were right about that.
