I agree that the place of his burrial will be important- the whole temple mount bit is silly to me- but they might ask to burry him in his ancestral home, which might be in Israel...but maybe not.
As for the leadership struggle, it will be messy.

French doctors treating Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat have denied Israeli TV reports that he has died.
Mr Arafat's health has deteriorated sharply in the last two days and he is being treated in intensive care.
Israel's Channel Two television quoted unnamed sources in Paris which said Mr Arafat underwent a brain scan and was "no longer alive".
Mr Arafat, 75, was flown to a military hospital in Paris last week. He has led the Palestinians since the 1960s.
"Mr Arafat is not dead," said head physician Christian Estripeau in a brief statement outside the military hospital.
An emergency meeting of top Palestinian officials has taken place in the West Bank to discuss the crisis.
At his Palestinian Authority headquarters in the West Bank city of Ramallah, officials stated publicly that Mr Arafat was "absolutely not in a coma".
But sources close to his entourage in Paris said he had fallen unconscious three times in the past two days, and had not regained consciousness the third time.

Prime Minister Ariel Sharon has said he would allow Mr Arafat to return to the West Bank if he recovers.
But he has made it clear he will not allow his old adversary to be buried in Muslim holy ground in east Jerusalem.

The whole situation could get ugly real fast.

I think Arafat is actually Egyptian?
No, I did not steal that from somebody on Something Awful.

I won't dance when someone dies but if he is dead then the Palestinians have a historic chance to make real peace with Israel. Blair wants to push for a comprehensive mideast peace agreement but Bush has refused to work with Arafat saying Arafat will never sign a peace agreement. Clinton got the Israelis to agree to 98% of Palestinian demands but still Arafat would not sign.
I don´t think that Arafat was the Problem for Peace with Israel.
It were the palestinian terrorist Organizations. Arafat contols/controlled only Al Aqsa, but had absolutely no control over the other Orgaizations like Hamas, which were the really active Organizations behind most of the Bombings.
Therefore I don´t think that Arafats death will bring the palestinians closer to peace.
Sharon will demand that the Palestinians stop their terrorist attacks as a prerequisite to peace. But as any new palestinian leader will have no influence on the terrorist Organizations (probably less Influence than Arafat had) they won´t stop bombing
and therefore Israel, too, will continue to assassinate palestinian terrorists in palestinian territories.

Sorry Oerdin but the planet is ssooooooo much better when some people leave it. Arafat is one of those people. Celebration required.
