Baghdad-based Palestinian terrorist Abu Al Abbas, Achille Lauro hijacker, is captured near Baghdad by US special forces troops. Palestinian Authority demands his release. “America has no right to imprison him,” says Erekat, citing Clinton’s endorsement of 1995 immunity for crimes committed prior to the 1993 peace accord.


My reaction? Hey, great timing Saeb! By all means, do pick this moment to remind all Americans that Abu Abbas, who shot an 85 year-old man in his wheelchair and dumped him overboard, is your guy whom you want to protect. What a terrific followup to all the Palestinian pro-Saddam chanting.

Every time I think that Palestinian leadership couldn't do anything more moronic, they surprise me.
