Just as 20 years ago, the media were careful to present the Achille Lauro affair in a vaccuum, without the relevant context of Israeli terrorism and hijackings. How does blindfolding a man in a wheelchair and killing him (pushing his body overboard while still in the wheelchair) require "the relevant context of Israeli terrorism and hijackings?" Is it your position that murdering Mr. Klinghoffer was justified (even partially) by that context? If not, why does the context matter? Your statement sounds an awful lot like the statement by that Saudi prince just after 9/11 (when Rudy G. told him to take his $10M check and shove it).
