Abu Jihad (Khalil Al-Wazir) was a founder of Fatah and deputy to Yasser Arafat. He headed the PLO terror organization’s military wing and also planned many deadly Fatah terror attacks in the 1960s through the 1980s. These attacks, in which a total of 125 Israelis were murdered, included the most lethal in Israeli history—the hijacking of a bus and murder of 37 civilians, 12 of them children.
