Beheaded American Journalist Steven Sotloff Had Deep Love of Arab Culture
(The Times-UK) Tom Coghlan - In his Twitter profile, Sotloff was pictured among a group of Yemeni elders, grinning at the camera in traditional dress. "He went to study Arabic and ended up staying," said Ann Marlowe, a fellow journalist. Sotloff spoke good Arabic and his sympathy for Arab culture was despite his own ancestry - he was the grandson of Holocaust survivors. He had attended a Jewish school in Miami.
