Unless I'm badly mistaken, Muslims don't do autopsies. When I was still in the Air Force, there was an ambassador from an African country who died a few hours after eating at an officers' club. They didn't rule out poisoning (simply because he was a VIP and there was a dinner in the next room of a group comprised of very NOT Muslim people). We had to take samples of every [expletive deleted] type of leftover food and send them off for testing. I made a comment that if he were poisoned, it would likely show up in the autopsy, and that's when I was told about Muslims not believing in autopsies. (None of the foods contained poisons,and it was believed he'd had a heart attack.)

Also, I thought I'd inform everybody of the latest news: As of this very second, Arafat is still possibly not dead.
