Antics of Suha Arafat

Suha Arafat is basically negotiating for a bigger salary from the PA.  Once she gets the raise, she will shut up, as she has been silenced before through cash payment.  What seems fishy about this recent theatrics, is that Muhammad Rashid (one of the most corrupt figures of the PLO and one of the team that most likely (with Dahlan) were involved in the Israeli conspiracy to kill Arafat.  A close friend and adviser of Arafat told me that he called the Paris hospital where Arafat was staying, and that Rashid and Dahlan were adamant that they wanted no visitors.  He was planning to visit Arafat there.  I doubt that the PA will go ahead with the exhumation of Arafat's body.  Qatar (through Aljazeera) may have been pressuring the PA for a faster deal with Hamas.  I don't trust any of the parties involved.
