Leon Klinghoffer, it should be remembered, was killed in 1985 by four members of the Palestine Liberation Army, a resolutely secular organization formerly aligned with Ba'athist Syria. Moon's ignorance on this point is indicative of a complete indifference to any objective truth, as well as a deep bigotry that would conflate Islam, Arabness, and who only knows what other ailments afflicting brown people.Joehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07093550496391280642noreply@blogger.com
