The Yasser Arafat Museum opened Wednesday in Ramallah, shedding light on the long-time Palestinian leader & #039;s life and offering a glimpse of history -- along with a number of his trademark black-and-white keffiyehs. On display for the first time are a range of Arafat & #039;s possessions, including the famous sunglasses he wore when addressing the United Nations in 1974, a number of his iconic keffiyehs (scarfs), his gun and his Palestinian passport. The museum also traces a century of Palestinian history, including the Nakba -- catastrophe, as Palestinians call the period leading up to and including the 1948 creation of Israel.
