The e-mail I just sent my Prof
Hello Professor-
The other week, when you were talking about the Peace Process, I got into a
discussion with you regarding Arafat, the PA and corruption. While you
acknowledged that there was obviously corruption, you did ask me if I "saw how
Arafat lived" and you also thought that much of what I was saying was hearsay.
I meant to send this to you a while ago, but did not have the time. You have
likely seen this before, but here are two links from Forbes that audited
Arafat, showing that his estimated worth was at least $300 million.

Perhaps he may have lived meagerly, but it would seem he certainly could have
afforded better!
