War was just fine to end all those despicable -ism's in that sign of yours, I agree.

But the battles of "Black September" amounted to a war. Maybe I confused you when using the word massacre. Besides meaning an unnecessary indiscriminate slaughter, it also refers to a crushing defeat, which the Jordanians certainly accomplished.
As to whether the Jordanians litterally slaughtered so many unjustifiably, I'm sure the UN has been right on top of investigating this for the last 36 years.I bet we'll hear a commitee's conclusions any day now.
