Abbas: what Wikipedia removed
The Abbas disambiguation page lists Abu Abbas, founder of the Palestine Liberation Front, the group behind the 1985 Achille Lauro hijacking in which Leon Klinghoffer, a disabled Jewish-American passenger, was murdered. The 2005 entry described him as founder of the Palestine Liberation Front terrorist organization (1948-2004). The word does not appear anywhere in the article today; the page has been reduced to a bare pointer. A reader looking up Abbas today does not learn that the Palestine Liberation Front he founded is described anywhere on Wikipedia as a terrorist organization.
The word “terror” appeared 1 times in this article’s opening at its peak, in 2005. Today it appears nowhere in the article at all, references included. Checked against the full current article on 2026-08-01.
