Amnon Kapeliouk

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Amnon Kapeliouk is a noted (and controversial) Israeli journalist.

Kapeliouk has attained recognition for his reportage on the Sabra and Shatila massacres, and in his famous (and disputed) attribution of the words "beasts walking on two legs" as being applied to Palestinians generally by Menachem Begin in a speech to the Knesset.[1] (Other sources have said that Begin meant to apply the words only to Palestinian terrorists).
