		Abul Abbas is best known for his terrorist attack on the Achille Lauro cruise ship in October 1985 during which an American, Leon Klinghoffer, was murdered in his wheelchair and thrown overboard.
		Abbas sided with Arafat in at least two key junctures in recent years; the 1984 Palestine National Congress meeting at which there was a split on diplomatic strategy, and during the fighting in Lebanon with pro-syrian PLO factions.
		Personally, I do not believe that simply expelling Abul Abbas from the PLO would be sufficient evidence that the PLO was no longer a terrorist organization.
