Sen. Kennedy and ethnic cleansing

"Deval Patrick, the governor of Massachusetts, told a little-known story about Mr. Kennedy’s attendance at the funeral of Yitzhak Rabin, the Israeli prime minister who was assassinated in 1995. With the service concluded and camera crews gone, Mr. Patrick said, Mr. Kennedy spread soil on Mr. Rabin’s grave that he had gathered from the graves of his brothers Robert and John at Arlington National Cemetery." Oh, how touching. How considerate. Did Sen. Kennedy also write a special tributes to the ethnic cleansing efforts of Rabin in the Lud-Ramlah area in 1948?
