Suha Arafat is a crook. While the Palestinian people have been living in misery and under a brutal occupation, she has been demanding (and getting) a monthly salary of more than $35,000.00. This article here mentions her commercial relationship with Pierre Rizq. (Thanks Sofi). But the article does not tell you that Rizq was a key liaison officer between the pro-Israeli right-wing Lebanese death squads (known as the Lebanese Forces who with the Israeli forces were responsible for Sabra and Shatila massacres), and the he was a representative of the Lebanese Forces militia in Israel during the Lebanese civil war. In fact, Suha Arafat got in trouble 3 years ago when she got involved in corrupt business (telecommunications) deals with Pierre Rizq in Palestine, and was forced by her husband to leave. Having said that, she was right in detecting a coup attempt by US men in the Palestinian Authority.
