I used the Google translation as a starting point for the English article. I have then added a significant amount of human translation. Ydorb 21:02, 17 May 2004 (UTC)

[edit] What is right - Rabin or Sharon?
The article states that the PFLP believed Yitzhak Rabin to be on the plane, however in the article about the PFLP it says they believed that Ariel Sharon was on the plane. What is correct? Ulflarsen 14:22, 9 March 2006 (UTC)
In the Aviation Security article, Khaled says she didn't know at the time, but now says it was Rabin. I'm inclined to say that the Rabin thing is a politically-motivated theory and the PFLP knows itself best (admittedly a gamble for an organization that probably operated on a need-to-know basis), but I don't know why Kaled herself now believes it was Rabin. Could we just say "Israeli VIP" and discuss the ambiguity?--144.92.120.73 04:09, 18 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] She wasn't allowed to visit?
Is there some context for the assertion that she was "not allowed to visit" Haifa, the place of her birth? Did this injunction happen before or after she joined an organization opposed to the existence of Israel? Just wondering. Kaisershatner 14:11, 1 May 2006 (UTC)
Just wondering? Is that condescension or curiosity? Until I know better, I think "not permitted to visit" was probably just nice language for "Israeli occupation of the town in 1948." Here's the text, which appeared in the Guardian, which was linked from the main article, and will now be added as a citation as well, as suggested: Khaled was born in Haifa, now on the Israeli coast, but became a refugee with her family at a camp in Tyre, Lebanon, as a toddler in 1948. (During her 1969 hijacking of the TWA flight she forced the pilot to fly over Haifa, so that she could look at the home town she was not permitted to visit.) She can barely recall a time when she was not politicised: she remembers at the age of four being told by her mother not to pick oranges because they were in Lebanon; the fruit was not theirs, they were not in Haifa now. She committed herself full-time to armed struggle at the age of 15. --144.92.120.73 03:47, 18 July 2006 (UTC)
Im pretty sure with almost certainty she was "not allowed to visit" Haifa as I don't know of any refugees in Lebanon that are allowed to visit old homes or places of birth since the 1948 war. Even more so I don't know that there are even those that are allowed to go to the Israel, West Bank, & Gaza unless they are on official business such as working for news organizations or some other things. Im sure so at what point she joined the PFLP would more then likely make any difference or effect if she was allowed to visit Haifa. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.222.175.180 (talk) 16:41, 11 September 2007 (UTC)

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template.
