Alan Dershowitz on "Bin Laden's Inspiration"

Topics: Middle East News and Perspectives

In the Nov. 12 Jerusalem Post Alan Dershowitz calls Arafat Bin Laden's Inspiration, among other things. Mr. Dershowitz writes of Arafat:

"Yasser Arafat was the godfather of international terrorism who dashed his people's hope for statehood, stole billions of dollars intended for the relief of their suffering, and indoctrinated their children with so much hatred that they willingly turned themselves into human bombs.

.......Arafat was personally responsible for the murders of thousands of innocent Israelis, hundreds of innocent Americans, and countless others. Like other ethnically motivated butchers before him, he delighted in killing Jewish children, as he did in several well-planned attacks on Israeli schools and nurseries. He also personally ordered the murder of hundreds of his own people who disagreed with him or collaborated with Israel. Never a man to tolerate dissent, he employed bullets rather than arguments to respond to his critics."
