The word “terrorism” first appeared
in a U.S. federal law in 1969. Introduced by a Zionist congressman from New
York who claimed “terrorists” were training children in refugee camps for the
Palestinians forced from their homes by Israel, the provision banned U.S.
humanitarian aid from benefiting any refugee who received military training
from the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) or “has engaged in any act of
terror.”
