Rashid Khalidi Referred to Arafat’s PLO As ‘We’
(CNSNews.com) – Rashid Khalidi, the Columbia University professor whose friendship with Sen. Barack Obama is causing waves, says he was never a spokesman for the PLO, but his strong PLO leanings were evident at a time when Yasser Arafat’s group was mounting terror attacks in Israel and causing mayhem in Lebanon. And while he may not have been speaking on behalf of the PLO, during interviews he occasionally used the word “we” when speaking of the organization.
