The Jews should have killed Abbas, along with Arafat and the rest of the PLO leadership in 1982. They were all conveniently sitting on a cruise ship, fleeing from Lebanon. Every one of them and their families, waiting for an Israeli torpedo to end it all once and for all. Israel bungled it, sad to say in large part because of Reagan’s ignorance of the issue, as he demonstrated by forcing Israel out of Lebanon and his weakness in confronting Hizbollah in 1983.
