Guest guest Posted October 29, 2004 Report Share Posted October 29, 2004 Hi Bert .... This from AstroDataBank: Birth Date:8/27/1929 (August 27, 1929)Birth Time:02:00 (2:00 AM) EET (-2:00)Birth Place:Cairo, EgyptLatitude / Longitude:30 N 3 / 31 E 15Rodden Rating / Source:DD / Conflicting/UnverifiedSource Notes:Thomas Kiernan, 1976 " Arafat, The Man and The Myth " (1976, p.33) " Mother went into labor August 26, 1929, a few hours into the morn of the 27th she prematurely delivered her fourth boy child in Cairo. " (p.23) " There is no absolute information on his place of birth; a cousin says he once boasted of having office records in Cairo destroyed in order to underscore his born-in-Jerusalem image " Bill Meridian sends a Xerox page of W.H. Allen, " Behind the Myth, Yasser Arafat " (first published in UK 1990, revised paperback edition pub by Corgi 1991) " Mohammed Abdel-Raouf Arafat al-Qudwa al-Husseini was, according to his university record, born in Cairo on 4 August, 1929, sixth child of Abdel Raoul al-Qudwa al-Husseini. " Shelley von Strunckel has a date from his wife Suha, via a mutual friend, of August 24, 1929, 2:00 AM EET, Cairo. CIDA goves Sept. 27, 1929, Cairo, Eygipt, time 2AM. Carole Hemingway reports that biography.com states: " His date and place of birth are disputed; while he claims to have been born August 4, 1929, in Jerusalem, a birth certificate gives the date as August 24, 1929, in Cairo, Egypt. " LMR notes that in a newspaper interview, he explained that " facts " or " truth " as known to the western mind, has a more flexible interpretation in the mid-east.
