Kesher Talk

I've seen this movie before .In light of recent terrorist incidents, let us remember when when former Nation of Islam members took hostages in 3 different locations in Washington DC in 1977, including B'nai Brith headquarters. Kind of like a concatenation of the DC sniper and the Moscow terrorists, except for one important detail: no one was killed (although then-mayor Marion Berry was seriously wounded). The hostages' release was negotiated by Egypt, Iran, and Pakistan. I'm going to stop before I keel over from an overdose of irony.
