I wonder if any Western leader would have that many ordinary citizens attend their funeral.

[yusuf.alajnabi]

He was one of the few leaders in this world that actually did something for the Palestinian people.

[coolcalm]

Not thousands but millions people attending to pay tribute and pray for his president and colleagues..

[arcasb]

If he was really so hated according to the Western media, why are millions of people mourning?
