And who is Ziyad Abu Ein?(PA minister who credits Oslo for facilitating violent resistance)

And who is Ziyad Abu Ein? (see excerpt below from PMW Bulletin)
With thanks to Lenny Ben-David:

Ziyad Abu Ein was arrested in the US in the 1970s, wanted for planting a
bomb in Tiberias that killed 2 boys. Ramsey Clark tried to block his
extradition and failed.

641 F.2d 504: Ziyad Abu Eain, Petitioner-appellant, v. Peter Wilkes, United
States Marshal for the Northerndistrict of Illinois, Respondent-appellee

United States Court of Appeals, Seventh Circuit. - 641 F.2d 504
Argued Sept. 26, 1980.Decided Feb. 20, 1981
Ramsey Clark, New York City, for petitioner-appellant.

Thomas P. Sullivan, U. S. Atty., Chicago, Ill., for respondent-appellee.

Before PELL, Circuit Judge, SKELTON, Senior Judge,* and WOOD, Circuit Judge.

HARLINGTON WOOD, Jr., Circuit Judge.

Petitioner Abu Eain is accused by the State of Israel of setting a bomb on
May 14, 1979, that exploded during the afternoon in the teeming market area
of the Israeli city of Tiberias,1 killing two young boys2 and maiming or
otherwise injuring more than thirty other people. Israel seeks the
extradition of petitioner from the United States. Petitioner, a resident of
the West Bank area of the Jordan River, traveled to Chicago, Illinois via
Jordan shortly after the Tiberias bombing incident. Pursuant to an
extradition treaty between the United States and Israel, and in accordance
with the federal statute governing American extradition procedure, 18 U.S.C.
ยง 3184, a magistrate in the Northern District of Illinois after a hearing
determined that defendant should be extradited to Israel to stand trial for
murder, attempted murder and causing bodily harm with aggravating intent.
Petitioner then sought a writ of habeas corpus from the district court
(there being no provision for direct appeal) to prevent the Secretary of
State from extraditing him in accordance with the magistrate's
determination. The district court denied the writ. We affirm.

PA Minister: Oslo gave Palestinians the tools to "create the great Intifada"

Ziyad Abu Ein, PA Deputy Minister of Prisoners Affairs:

"The Oslo Accords are not the dream of the Palestinian people. However,
there would never have been [violent] resistance in Palestine without Oslo.
Oslo is the effective and potent greenhouse which embraced the Palestinian
resistance. Without Oslo, there would never have been [violent] resistance.
In all the occupied territories, we could not move a single pistol from
place to place. Without Oslo, and being armed through Oslo, and without the
Palestinian Authority's "A" areas, without the training, the camps, the
protection afforded by Oslo, and without the freeing of thousands of
Palestinian prisoners through Oslo - we and this Palestinian resistance
would not have been able to create this great Palestinian Intifada."
