Yes, I do not recall the significance either. They were a faction of the PLO, which has always been more an organized mob than a well- defined organization.....

FYI, "Black September" derived it's name from the month (September, 1971, I believe) when Jordan expelled the Palistians from their country for using it as a base for artillery attacks against against Israel.

"Ethnic cleansing" has been trashed as a form of Nazism over the last decade. But for centuries, it has been a quite legitimate method for creating peace from war-time situations. A mass arbitrary expulsion of Palistinians into Syria, combined with the forced installation of a pro-Western government-yes "at the point of a gun", perhaps making Syria an Israeli colony-is worth a try, considering Israeli's unstable security situation. What possible down-side could there be?-and it sure beats genocide...
