Portrait

on BBC Two England

Yasser Arafat is the sixth subject in a series of face-to-face interviews with Ludovic Kennedy.
Chairman of the Palestine
Liberation Organisation for the last 20 years, he has been active in the movement since 1948 when he fought as a young officer in the Arab/Israeli war.
Why did he first become involved in the Palestinian cause? Is he a devout
Muslim? How did he become a millionaire?
Why does he never spend more than two nights under the same roof?
Yasser Arafat reveals all, or some, in an intimate portrait.
