-RetweetWhat's On Arafat's Desk?

Mon, Mar 15, 2004 at 9:13:43 am PST

It’s been quite a while since we got a good view of the precarious piles of paper that fill the reeking lair of the world’s oldest terrorist, who is shown here sharing a moment of carefree whimsy with his Qureia puppet.

And my eyes may be deceiving me, but I think I see the red binder—the horrible red binder!— in that pile in the foreground...

Nothing about the man changes. He still wears that glorified table cloth on his head. He has been wearing that same awful uniform with the condom shaped medal for as long as I can remember. He either never changes his clothing (likely) or has an entire closet full of the things(farfetched)

Looks like the Greeks don't like American Banks now.

Greek police used controlled explosion late Sunday to destroy the small time bomb, which was hidden in a backpack and placed outside a Citibank branch in the northeastern Athens suburb of Halandri. There were no injuries or damage.

The Greek group calling itself Revolutionary Struggle claimed responsibility in a telephone call to the Athens newspaper Elftherotypia. Police said the bomb was made out of two sticks of dynamite, a detonator and a timing device. .

I think he does have a large closet full of identical clothing. It makes him look like a soldier (dictators always wear uniforms).

#9 Hasidic Gentile

It looks like a calculator that he needs to add up all the funds it gives away to corrupt PA officials.

#10 zulubaby

Having a desk covered with papers is an attempt to make himself look busy and important (first thing MBA graduates learn). he is to be perceived as the center of all things for the PA and he is constantly reviewing reports and making those tough decissions.

1. You don't have to be crazy to work at the PA but... aw screw it, you have to be screaming-ape-shit-nuts.

2. As his dementia worsened, Arafat took to wearing curtains on his head and muttering "Fiddle-dee-dee!" and "Rhett, what is to become of us?"

3. Arafat is disappointed as, for the fourth straight year, none of his staff participate in "Bring Your Young Boys To Work Day."

4. Deep in the pile, Osama's birthday card.

5. "Red folder? Contract? Mephistopheles? I don't know what you are MY DARK MASTER WILL GNAW YOUR BONES talking about."

6. The pile in front is from the accounts in Switzerland, the pile on the right os the subsidy reports from the EU, and the stack in back is the receipt for nipple clamps from Adam and Eve.

7. Every last one reads "All work and no play make Yasser a dull boy."

8. Mr Arafat's STD reports come back from the Mayo clinic.

9. Bob Graham has nothing on Arafat... who has dutifully logged every bowel movement since 1968,

10. Hoping to win more favor with the BBC, Arafat now routinely slaps an old bald man on the head during press conferences.

Are you sure? It looks like a TV remote. And look at the dull, lifeless stares on those two goats. I'm trying to imagine what show could possibly provoke such a level of inanimation. It could be a unful tool to combat terror. Sort of like shining a light in their eyes before hitting them over the head with a baseball bat.

According to the sources, two U.S. helicopters arrived Sunday from Iraq to the city of Qamishli on the Turkish border, where the riots began.

The sources believe that the American delegation has warned the Syrian government that if the riots continue, the situation could get out of control and the Syrians will find it difficult to restrain the Kurdish militias in northern Iraq, who want to come to the aid of the Kurds in Syria.

Interesting.

It is indeed a CROSS which he uses to ward off the angel of death, he so rightly desrves to come take him to hell.

In fact he wears the false rubber red nose just to the right of the cross to try to disguise his own ugly schnozzle - but it wont help when the time comes for him to depart this world.

No sight of his Swiss passport which I identified in a similar picture last year nor the Swiss bank account-book.


However I do see the income tax reminder tucked into the picture frame - he won t be replying to that missive either.

Finally , note the red tobacco jar by his elbow in which he keeps his soul (locked away from the light)

I swear Arafat's hiding aliens, and this is a bigger problem than we all thought it to be. Just look to the right of the Kleenex and next to the water bottle. Peeking out looks like one of those alien heads.

Maybe he's channeling?

He might be trying to channel, but he ain't receiving.

Now of course there are other more ominous buttons on this remote but I have been held to secrecy. Sorry.

11. All work in Arafat's office comes to a screeching halt when "Days of Our Lives" comes on.

13. "Idiot! Who needs Kleenex! I have a kaffiyeh!"

14. Look closely at the top of his kaffiyeh... Arafat is Dilbert's boss!

Isn't it about time that Israel threatened Arafat's life again. When they did it last summer, they got almost a month's worth of no bombings. Of course, the UN had to pay a lot of overtime to it's staffers for putting out all the anti-Israeli resolutions. But they did get some peace and quiet.

They should threated his life every 3 months. Or at least do it a couple of weeks before each major Jewish holiday.

"If your apartment smells so bad that you have to "Plug-It-In," that's a bad situation."

"If you find yourself with your art budget on empty, take some interesting paper, a simple frame and...it's art!"

"When you're putting a lot of small pieces on shelves and they're against a white background, it feels very stark and naked. By painting a color in the back, behind the items, it unifies everything."

"Bad lighting, an American epidemic. Here's the solution: a simple porcelain Edison socket and a silver-tipped light bulb."

"Paint, the perfect way to give a room personality. Happy (orange), serene (blue), or even sexy (red). Just brush it on. If you want to add a hint sexiness to your abode, try adding a bit of red. It's a passionate color, very sexy."

"Paint your walls with an interesting pattern if you don't have any pieces of art. An alternative is to get something like a bulletin board that acts like a living piece of artwork you can manipulate. This way, you can add and change things as time goes by."

21. Arafat insisted his second PhD was in the pile somewhere.

22. "Yes... I need my glasses to see, but no way am I setting myself up for another 'Old Navy' caption."

23. "What do you call a Spaniard with a kaffiyeh? You call him 'my biyatch,' that's what you call him."

24. "Hey Arafat, why don't you stare off into space like a braindead moron? Oh, you already thought of that."

25. Once again, no one was up for naked Twister.

26. "This remote does not control the micro-explosive in Chirac's skull. I keep that one in my bedroom."

27. Arafat's "Have him shaved and brought to my tent," quip lost its humorous punch less than half an hour into the VH-1 boyband marathon.

28. Suddenly, it struck Qureia. "This is not my beautiful house. This is not my beautiful wife." And he asked himself, "Well, How did I get here?"

29. "I am wearing a push up bra!"

30. Knowing that Arafat found Shrek incredibly hot was decidedly TMI.

96 evariste  Mon, Mar 15, 2004 11:21:38am

V the K, are you trying to kill me? ROFLMAO!

97 Capt. Queeg  Mon, Mar 15, 2004 11:23:13am

V the K:

You doin' good today...

Seriously, why are these two men alive on March 15, 2004?

98 andthenblammo!  Mon, Mar 15, 2004 11:23:34am

"I didn't get a HARUMPH out of you!"

"HARUMPH!"

"You watch your ass!"

99 zulubaby  Mon, Mar 15, 2004 11:24:11am

Rayra (#93)

Really wondering why Israel / IDF doesn't KILL HIM.

Israel is on strict orders not to harm Arafat. Rantisi and Yassin are fair game though.

100 V the K  Mon, Mar 15, 2004 11:28:19am

Thanks evariste... and this started out being a really hard picture to caption.

101 PDM  Mon, Mar 15, 2004 11:29:13am

#81 selpaw,

Thank you for that link. With my archive of Arafat images and some of V the K's captions, the possibilities are endless!

102 foreign devil  Mon, Mar 15, 2004 11:42:39am

Well, I don't REALLY see the red binder, though I'm sure it's there (the one with the numbers of all his Swiss bank accounts you mean?), but the whole paper mess is beginning to remind me of a book I once read called "My Brother's Keeper" in which two elderly brothers live in an old house in Brooklyn and the surviving brother ends up dead under a mountain of newspapers he'd been precariously stacking for years.

That pile on the credenza is almost at critical mass and if there should be a sudden vibration (say from a passing Israeli tank or an overhead helicopter) it might just slide off, rumble across the room killing thousands and leaving massive destruction and property damage in its wake. I wouldn't go in there to houseclean if he gave me Suha's monthly allowance. No wonder she lives in Paris.

103 Avi W  Mon, Mar 15, 2004 11:51:06am

That is definitely an AC remote control. The poor guy doesn't even have central heating.

#99 zulubaby


Israel is on strict orders not to harm Arafat. Rantisi and Yassin are fair game though.

So, can they just hurt him really, really bad? Like to the point of not being able to live without external life support systems...(then someone could have fun playing with the circuit breakers controlling them; flick off, wait a few minutes, on again, wait five, off-on-off-on-off-on, offonoffonoffonoffon (let wrist wrest a bit) offonoffonoffonoffon...)

105 Frank IBC  Mon, Mar 15, 2004 11:53:34am

31. They are reading the headline "Rosie O'Donnel Weds Long-Term Girlfriend, Slams Bush"...it's taking a while to register in their non-native-English brains...a brief delay...then hysterical laughter...

V the K -

Re: Caption 23 - Now that you mention it, the defeatist Socialist anti-Semite moonbat in that picture WAS kinda cute.

106 Frank IBC  Mon, Mar 15, 2004 11:57:34am

What do you mean, "wrong hole"?

(Punchline of that Japanese joke that starts in a whorehouse and ends up in a golf course)

107 zulubaby  Mon, Mar 15, 2004 11:59:56am

Clutch (#104)

LOL! I like the way you think.

108 Ms. Andi  Mon, Mar 15, 2004 12:06:28pm

V the K

You have made today sooo much better than yesturday. LMAO!

109 Ms. Andi  Mon, Mar 15, 2004 12:09:16pm

ummm make that yesterday

110 Lysander  Mon, Mar 15, 2004 12:12:06pm

#25 SoCalJustice

I'm still seething from yesterday's bombing.

To me, that picture represents nothing more than a target rich environment.

Just off these murderous bastards.

Qoreia has proven to be weaker than Abbas, and as such, less than worthless.


Amen. Can't really add anything to that. Just - Amen.

/s/

Lysander

111 evariste  Mon, Mar 15, 2004 12:18:30pm

Ms. Andi you sure misspell a lot lately! Did you curl up after your bath with a nice cuppa and a book like you said you would? If you didn't maybe that's the problem :-)

112 Split Lip  Mon, Mar 15, 2004 12:58:03pm

I don't see the red binder. Maybe just the very corner, but I don't see it. I thought the red binder was the Arafat stack of paperwork barometer. Where the red binder was in relation to the top of the stack indicated how much work Arafat had done/had left to do.

The device on top of the paperwork looked to me like a solar calculator until I read the comments that it is a climate controlled remote. That's pretty advanced. I've never seen one in the US. Why does Arafat have better HVAC technology than the US? Also, I was persuaded the mystery device is not a calculator by looking at the small table to the rear and left of Arafat, the one underneath the teetering stack of paperwork with the black binder on top. I believe I see an adding machine there, next to the red-topped object that someone said is a tobacco canister.

I have no idea what keeps that stack of papers in the back from sliding down. Maybe the mirror IS solidly mounted to the wall, and it is prying the back of the paper stack down, pinning them all together.

Whoever observed that the crystal thing next to the cross and the box of kleenex is a crystal owl has a keen eye. I had no idea until I read that.

Wonder what that orange thing is in the bottom right corner. Like it's got orange and brown stripes. Almost looks like several bendy straws in a glass vase or something. Anyone know?

What's the small yellow thing on the table next to the possible box of Marlboros?

Anyone else see anything interesting/curious in the photo?

Has anyone ever seen a person's reflection in the mirror?

113 John Kerry  Mon, Mar 15, 2004 1:06:14pm

#112 Split Lip:

You inspired this caption:

"Why don't I hang up that mirror? Because it doesn't work! I never see my reflection in it! If it hadn't been a gift from a certain US Senator that I can't name I'd throw the dang thing out!"

114 Ms. Andi  Mon, Mar 15, 2004 1:07:04pm

#111 evariste

LOL! I don't know what my problem is. Yes, I did curl up. That should help a little.

115 V the K  Mon, Mar 15, 2004 1:09:00pm

31. No one could bring themselves to tell Arafat that they were watching the Soap Opera Channel on satellite, not CNN, and there would be no suicide bombing of Luke and Laura's wedding.

32. The glazed over look betraying a complete shutdown of neural activity... damn it, someone must be playing an Enya CD.

33. Arafat was puzzled. A moment ago, Arafat has called promising to end the Zionist occupation of all Islamic lands. Now, he was just screaming "Baba Booey! Baba Booey!" over and over again.

Hey, is someone suggesting an all pics and caps blog? Where do I sign up?

116 evariste  Mon, Mar 15, 2004 1:10:39pm

V the K,

32. The glazed over look betraying a complete shutdown of neural activity... damn it, someone must be playing an Enya CD.

LOL!

117 Melissa  Mon, Mar 15, 2004 1:49:30pm

This is a pile of applications for spots on American reality TV: Bachelor (what Suha doesn't know won't hurt her) and Queer Eye for the Straight Guy.

Face it, he could use the back waxing, and Carson Kressley could do wonders for his wardrobe -- 'lose the Palestinian state-shaped headgear. It's sooo 70s guerilla terrorist.' Unfortunately, he was rejected as he didn't meet the show criteria found in the title.

118 V the K (Correction)  Mon, Mar 15, 2004 2:03:42pm

33. Arafat was puzzled. A moment ago, Arafat Sharon had called promising to end the Zionist occupation of all Islamic lands. Now, he was just screaming "Baba Booey! Baba Booey!" over and over again.

119 C J (son of V the K)  Mon, Mar 15, 2004 2:14:34pm

1. Arafat pulled the black and white kaffiyeh over his head. "Moo Moo I'm a mad cow."

2. The New FOX reality show. A slob of a Palestinian dictator has to get along with his neat freak prime minister in "The Real Odd Couple."

3. When Qureaia boots his computer, he sees a screen that says "Hello... Qureia... you're ... quite good ... at ... turning ... me ...on."

4. "heh heh, heh, heh ... Beavis, he said you're my puppet. That means my hands up your butt."

120 David Simon  Mon, Mar 15, 2004 2:25:01pm

#119 C J - Your dad needs to teach you some LGF etiquette. When you post something like #2, it's bad manners not to give your fellow readers a drink alert. Now I have to clean off the soda that I sprayed all over my computer.

121 cba  Mon, Mar 15, 2004 2:25:24pm

V the K, is #119 really your son? If so, he's certainly a chip off the old block.

122 evariste  Mon, Mar 15, 2004 2:38:55pm

C J, LOL! Top notch, young man. Now, where's Rugby's contri?

123 Ms. Andi  Mon, Mar 15, 2004 2:43:31pm

CJ and V the K should start their own father and son caption business.

124 andthenblammo!  Mon, Mar 15, 2004 3:12:06pm

"You know, I have the script for "The Passion of the Christ" on this desk, and would have green-lighted it if I could have found it. Now Mel Gibson is richer than I am!"

125 andthenblammo!  Mon, Mar 15, 2004 5:39:31pm

"YOU WILL RESPECT MY (Palestinian) AUTHORITAY!"

126 LGF Reader #827[deleted]  Mon, Mar 15, 2004 6:26:59pm
127 V the K  Tue, Mar 16, 2004 1:16:10am

Thanks, you all. For #119, the basic ideas were CJ's. I just helped with delivery and execution.

128 Smit  Tue, Mar 16, 2004 2:30:20am

Cheers, I needed this thread!

129 V the K  Tue, Mar 16, 2004 2:30:59am

34. Man, and you thought the last Quizno's commercial had some ugly guys in it.

35. "Qureia, does my manifest homoeroticism bother you?"

36. "Qureia, if I died tomorrow, would you come to my car swarm?"

37. On the Palestinian version of "The Apprentice," winners become suicide bombers, losers become Arafat's personal hygiene assistants.

38. "Wow, Yassin was right. These wahhabist sermons synch up perfectly with Dark Side of the Moon."

39. Blank stare, drooling incomprehension, apparently Arafat doesn't get these captions either.

40. "Ahmed, do you ever pretend your kaffiyeh is long blond hair and you're a pretty, pretty girl?"

41. "Look at that anger! Look at that passion! Complete detachment from reality! I tell you, Qureia, if Howard Dean were Palestinian, you would be so fired."

130 WarBicycle  Tue, Mar 16, 2004 3:26:30am

Arafat is not a traditional [bigoted word], rather than use his left hand to wipe his ass, he uses recycled stationery and keeps it within arm reach of his portapotty.

131 Frank IBC  Tue, Mar 16, 2004 3:32:29am

Ah...I finally remember why this looks so familiar -

It's like the Bored Meetingvideo from a few years back.

Maybe they'll start throwing paper airplanes...calling each other on cellphones...turning the lights off and dressing up in costumes in the meantime...

132 Frank IBC  Tue, Mar 16, 2004 3:35:13am

Aha...I found it!

Bored Meeting

133 V the K  Tue, Mar 16, 2004 3:44:30am

42. "Uh...yeah... Qureia... yeah... um, we're gonna need you to come in on Saturday, yeah.. that'd be great ... "

43. "I'll be honest with you, I love his music, I do, I'm a Michael Bolton fan. For my money, it doesn't get any better than when he sings 'When a Man Loves a Woman.' "

44. "Oh, and next Friday... is Hawaiian shirt day... so, you know, if you want to you can go ahead and wear a Hawaiian shirt and jeans. "

45. "I was told that I could listen to the radio at a reasonable volume from nine to eleven, I told Abu that if Ashan is going to listen to her headphones while she's filing then I should be able to listen to the radio while I'm collating so I don't see why I should have to turn down the radio because I enjoy listening at a reasonable volume from nine to eleven."

(Thanks Frank IBC, for making me think of 'Office Space.')

134 andthenblammo!  Tue, Mar 16, 2004 4:43:57am

#133 V the K:

I was looking for a red stapler on Arafutz's desk.

"I'll burn the building down."

135 David Simon  Tue, Mar 16, 2004 4:53:26am

#126 V the K's pathetic little sourpuss stalker - I'd say that you've been outvoted. Shut the fuck up already.

136 V the K  Tue, Mar 16, 2004 5:34:47am

#135 David Simon. If Charles asked me to stop, I'd stop. If zulubaby, SoCalJustice, Occasional Reader or anyone else whose opinion I respected said I wasn't funny, I'd lay off (or try harder). But being targeted by a humorless troll ... who seems to have sprung up just for the purpose or bitching about me ... is a badge of honor. When the trolls try to shout you down, it means you're getting under their skin.

That said, thanks for saying what you said.

137 Frank IBC  Tue, Mar 16, 2004 6:49:03am

You know you've made it when you have your own pet troll.

Mine was "Paris Hitlon" [sic] from a few months back...oh, how I miss her... ;)

138 lawhawk  Tue, Mar 16, 2004 6:51:19am

I just had to reread this topic for V t K's captions, and they certainly brightened up my day!

Thanks and keep up the great work!

139 zulubaby  Tue, Mar 16, 2004 6:52:46am

V the K, was your troll here again? Obsessed, isn't it?

Oh, and I think you're hilarious :-)

140 zulubaby  Tue, Mar 16, 2004 6:56:33am

Frank IBC, the bored meeting thing is completely hysterical! I've never seen that.

141 V the K  Tue, Mar 16, 2004 7:15:35am

My only regret is that captions 35, 38, and 39 have lost their context. Ah, well... this thread is passing it's Sell By date... and there's sure to be a car swarm or a pink tank protest any time now.

142 Frank IBC  Tue, Mar 16, 2004 7:37:44am

46. Arafat and Qureia do their "King Fahd" impressions.

143 V the K  Tue, Mar 16, 2004 8:13:28am

Frank, you know what's almost weirder than having your own personal troll, being quoted on other blogs.

[Link: www.amritas.com...]

[Link: entre_nous.typepad.com...]

[Link: 38.144.96.23...]

It is kind of gratifying that people find my "serious" remarks worth quoting, too.

144 Lyana  Tue, Mar 16, 2004 9:31:44am

Wow, talk about "Ask, and ye shall receive"... Thanks for the day brighteners!

145 cj (son of v the k)  Wed, Mar 17, 2004 5:10:11am
