Reports are emerging that Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat has died in France after being admitted to a hospital last week for an undisclosed stomach problem. Others are saying the leader is technically alive but clinically brain dead (don't make us write it). Per usual, the international media doesn't seem to know what the fuck is going on. Whatever the situation, can we consider this the first, official election-related death?
