The ringleader of the 1985 hijacking of the Achille Lauro ship will be expelled from Italy to Syria, the Associated Press reports. Youssef Magied al-Molqui has served only 23 years of his 30-year jail sentence for his role in the hijacking and murder of wheelchair-bound Jewish passenger Leon Klinghoffer.
Italy’s Attorney General Gianfranco Pagano said that Molqui was to be flown on Saturday from his holding cell in Sicily to Rome and then onto Damascus.
Molqui's claim that he should not be expelled due to his marriage to an Italian citizen was rejected by an Italian court. Nor did his claim to being stateless - he is a descendant of Arabs who fled pre-state Israel - prevent his expulsion order.

Isn’t this like Michael Jackson being expelled to a NAMBLA convention? I need to drink more coffee and reread this article...
Then the Question becomes, WHY is he still alive?
Throw him overboard.
In a wheelchair for balance.
I can hardly believe that he’s still a LIVE man walking. He should be dead. This is what occurred with araRATfink. He self-appoints himself as leader of the terrorist palis & immediately the world grants him legitimacy. He should have been dead long before he finally croaked. Now another terrorist is legitimized by the world. Damn! Doesn’t anyone have this murderer in their gun sight?
Exactly. I remember that incident. Horrific.
Avi,
I’m surprised Israeli secret service didn’t off all involved in the Achille Lauro.
Though he was an American he was killed because he was a Jew.
American secret service folks wait for their pensions and do nothing and were not ever expected to do a thing even though it was an American citizen.
ALL involved should have been dead a few decades ago.
Is this the guy Oliver North (many years ago) arranged to prevent being moved to Egypt by arranging for USN aircraft to intercept the jet trying to leave Italy?
“Exactly. I remember that incident. Horrific.”
Yes and why this scum is/was afforded any Mercy is beyond me!
Abbas ( real name Mohammed Zaydan) was picked up in Irag
in 2003 following invasion. The skunk died several months
later in March 2004 still in custody - hopefully while
being waterboarded
If we have air bases ANYWHERE near Italy or a carrier in the Mediterranean, it’s high time to intercept that flight!
The American Secret Service didn’t do anything precisely because he was a Jew. Just look at our Arabist US State Department for the nod against Jews. They love for some reason anything Arab and are against anything for Jews. Look at Kissinger, Cyrus Vance, Jimmah, Hittlery. and go back even to the early and mid 20th Century and you will find Arab sympathy vs. Jewish condemnation for just about anything.
Hey Napoleon,
