blast from the past

Secretary of State Warren Christopher yesterday described Yasser Arafat, chairman of the Palestine Liberation Organization, as "the flag and the ‘Star-Spangled Banner’" of the Palestinian movement.
I ran into a Usenet article of mine where i greatly derided Christopher for that particular mal mot.

Took me a while to realize that this quote was actually from 1994.

To me, Arafat will always be the Italian tablecloth of the PLO.

linque?
