My Dear Friend,
This mail may not be surprising to you if you have been following current
events in the international media with reference to the Middle East and
Palestine in particular.
I am Mrs. SUHA ARAFAT, the wife of YASSER ARAFAT, the Palestinian leader who
died in Paris.
Since his death and even prior to the announcement, I have been thrown into
a
state of antagonism, confusion, humiliation, frustration and hopelessness by
the present leadership of the Palestinian Liberation Organization and the
new
Prime Minister. I have even been subjected to physical and psychological
torture. As a widow that is so traumatized, I have lost confidence in
everybody
in the country at the moment.
You must have heard over the media reports on the discovery of some funds in
my
husband's secret bank account and companies and the allegations of some huge
sums of money deposited by my husband in my name of which I have refused to
disclose or give up to the corrupt Palestine Government. In fact, the total
sum
allegedly discovered by the Government so far is in the tune of about $6.5
Billion Dollars. And they are not relenting on their effort to make me poor
for
life.
