Exaggerating Erekat Displays Ignorance

Saeb Erekat is quoted as saying:

The last I know, Washington is 6,000 miles from Jerusalem, while Jericho is 67.

As far as I know, and I've checked, the distance between Jerusalem and Jericho, where Erekat lives, is approximately 17 miles, which is about 27.2 kolometers.

Darn that Erekat, always exaggerating.

Remember the "500" figure for the "Jenin Massacre"?
