#1 The United States indicted him for the June 14, 1985 hijacking of TWA Flight 847, which resulted in the death of U.S. Navy diver Robert Stethem.
Which is an antiseptic way of saying Stetham was singled out because he was American and in the military, that we was beaten and tortured in front of other passengers, that he was shot and his body dumped on the runway in front of the cameras of the world. That this was done as an act of hatred against the United States and against free people everywhere (whether or not they knew or had the hear to appreciate it).
I demand revenge for his death. One is not enough. |
