...tenets, I changed my position. I now believe the separation of Jews and Arab Muslims is a matter of life and death. The Arab nations and those who call themselves "Palestinians" have made it clear that they cannot bring themselves--as Muslims--to live with or near their Jewish neighbors.

Bouncing between Jordan, Sudan and Iraq, he rose through the ranks of the P.L.O...
...comrade's decision to consider diplomacy over violence. That year, the newly formed Abu Nidal Organization (also known as Fatah Revolutionary Council) planted a bomb on a TWA plane flying from Athens to Rome, killing all 88 people on board. Abu Nidal went on to mastermind attacks on a Jewish school in Antwerp, synagogues in Vienna and Istanbul, and a Greek tourist ship. In December 1985 his group ambushed the El Al ticket counters at Rome and Vienna airports, killing 14 bystanders...
