Apparently, the only people who idolized Arafat were Jacque Chirac and the western press (and I'm sure Michael Moore). Check out this little nugget:
Arab leaders long ago stopped liking or respecting Yasser Arafat, or indeed believing a word he said. Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak once referred to him, in the presence of Secretary of State Warren Christopher, as "a son of a dog." The Syrian defense minister called Arafat the "son of sixty thousand whores."
