From the article:

'Abd-al-Ra'uf al-Qidwa al-Husayni, better known as Yasser Arafat (a distant relative) is reputed to have fought with him^[1] and to have been his personal secretary.^[2]

Footnotes[edit]

^ Sayigh, 2000, p. 81.
^ Robinson, 1997, p. 13.

This is disputed in Said K. Aburish: Arafat (1998). Aburish writes that:

Arafat was not part of the famous Husayni -family; that was a myth that Arafat himself (among others) spread.
And the group the Arafat fought with was never in the same area as Abd al-Qadir al-Husayni. According to Aburish (p. 18): "That Arafat fought bravely in the area around Gaza [..] is confirmed by many who were with him." He then adds that there is nobody who claim they saw him outside Gaza (and Gaza was not Abd al-Qadir al-Husayni area of operation). Also that all of Abd al-Qadir al-Husayni´s military assistens were known at the time (and Arafat was not one of them).

Moved from article[edit]

"Two corrections: 1)Qadir did not know that the Qastel had been captured and walked there with two body guards. It was night and a Jewish guard shot at them when they got close. Qadir was wounded and was left to bleed to death while his two guards run away. Only in day time the body was checked and the Palmach realized that they killed Qadir. 2) An interesting rumor is that one of the two body guards was Yasser Arafat.

Discussion point[edit]

My source, O Jerusalem, says nothing about hand to hand fighting when Qadir was killed. It says that Qadir approached the village and shouted to the Jews inside to make them think he was one of them, but a sergeant who detected an arabian accent in the words, sprayed the general area of the voice and apparently hit him. he lay there all night long until he apparently bled to death. Although he was missing from the arabian partisans ranks, no one knew where he was and it was not until the next day when the jews found his body and figured out who he was that the arabs knew he had been killed. This disputes the "killed in hand to hand fighting" comment in the article, and also seems to dispute the idea that two body guards ran away because presumably they would have told the arab leadership where he was when they got back.

Death[edit]

Ben Gurion was reported that Abd al-Qadir had run into a Jewish squad with three of his fighters. When the three were killed in the exchange of fire, Abd al-Qadir "raised his hands and begged for his life; our boys didn't know who he was and shot him, only when they checked his papers did they find out..." Sources suggest that Mordechai Gazit lead the squad.--ארינמל (talk) 19:20, 20 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
