The Palestinian Liberation Front accused the United States today of the "assassination" of its leader Abu Abbas, who the Pentagon said had died of natural causes in US custody.

"We hold the US administration responsible for the assassination of Abu Abbas, the Arab Palestinian national leader," Nazem Yussef, PLF politburo member and representative in Lebanon, told AFP.
Nazem, you seem to be confused. When we send a B2 in to pick off, oh, say, Yasser, in his compound, thatâs a assassination. When a prisoner weâre holding happens to stop wasting oxygen, thatâs called an execution.
"They had stopped giving him medicines for 10 days at the detention center in Iraq, and he had been suffering from heart problems and blood pressure," Yussef said.
I think the meds worked just fine, his blood pressure is much lower now.
