The point is not made often enough that Arafat was trained as a Soviet agent back in the day. I'm sure there were many others like him who are similarly trained. So not only is there is a parallel, there is a direct connection.

The connection between Lani Guanier, the commie nominee of clinton, and the old time communists is quite interesting. Good post.

From "See No Evil" R. Baer
For Someone who isn't a student of terrorism or the middle east,this may sound like inside baseball, but terrorist orginizations operate like the most complicated interlocking directorate ever created by a white shoes New York lawyer. And at the end of the day, whether you're tracing Imad Mughniyah or seeking to unravel the Iranian revolution, a lot of trails converge at the feet of Yasir Arafat. There may even be a trail to Osama Bin Laden, but what you never look for, you are almost certain never to find.
