Israel Opposes Terrorist's Burial in West Bank

(Maarivenglish.com) Eliel Shahar - At Sunday's cabinet meeting, Prime Minister Sharon indicated he is unlikely to allow the body of Abu Abbas, leader of the Palestine Liberation Front, to be brought to Ramallah for burial. Abbas, who died last week in U.S. custody in Iraq, led the 1985 hijacking of the cruise ship Achille Lauro and murdered its wheelchair-bound passenger Leon Klinghoffer.
