Arafat's 15 minutes of Fame may finally be up in the UK

Madam Tussauds to remove Arafat poster

A poster depicting Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat making a Churchill-style "V" for victory sign is to be removed from display at Madam Tussauds, the famous London waxworks tourist attraction.

The Arafat poster, which will be removed at the end of the month, appears beside posters of Queen Elizabeth and Princess Diana.

The decision followed a number of complaints, including one from the Board of Deputies of British Jews, which pointed out that Arafat is "a known supporter and instigator of terrorism."


Well, praise the Lord from whom all blessings flow!
What do you want to bet that American Jews and right-thinking Gentile tourists complained as much or more as their British friends?
I know this is a "little" thing, but it's a start to end the cult of that murdering pig Arafat and that's good enough.
