Who was responsible for the Lod airport attacks at Tel Aviv in 1972?

  1. Japanese Red Army (JRA) and Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP)

  2. IRA and ETA

  3. Hamas and Hezbollah

  4. Al-Qaeda and Taliban

The correct answer is: Japanese Red Army (JRA) and Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP)

The Japanese Red Army (JRA) and Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP) were responsible for the Lod airport attacks at Tel Aviv in 1972. The other options, IRA and ETA, Hamas and Hezbollah, and Al-Qaeda and Taliban, all have different origins and agendas and were not known to be involved in this specific attack. The IRA and ETA are Irish and Basque separatist groups, respectively, and were primarily active in their own regions. Hamas and Hezbollah are Palestinian militant groups focused on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, and Al-Qaeda and Taliban are Islamist terrorist organizations with different targets and goals.
