The Mossad assassination of Ghassan Kanafani | ASSASSINS

Nine days after a massacre at an Israeli airport, Mossad assassinates one of the Arab world's most celebrated writers in Beirut.
Ghassan Kanafani never carried a gun. But his words had power and influence, and he was a spokesperson for the group who carried out the bloody airport attack.
The first part in our special series about Israel and Palestine in the 1970s is about the life and death of writer Ghassan Kanafani.
