AP reports on the current international conference on terrorism in Madrid, where Saeb Erakat surprised nobody by blaming Israel for Palestinian terror. But where does Erakat’s quote end, and the reporter’s voice begin, in this passage?
“I have a 17-year-old boy, Ali,” said Palestinian negotiator Saeb Erakat. “I don’t want him to become a suicide bomber” as a desperate way to achieve legitimate dreams including an independent state, viable homeland with Jerusalem as capital and right of refugees to reclaim lost land. “Help me. Help me put hope in his mind.”
