The Palestine Liberation Organization has been evicted from its Washington office, The Jerusalem Post has learned. Since the Palestinian Authority is not a state and does not therefore have an official embassy, the office rented by the PLO has served as the PA's de facto diplomatic mission. The PLO was routinely late in paying its rent at its K Street office not far from the White House, but sources say the management company, Cushman & Wakefield, used the late payment this time as an excuse to evict it for political reasons. Demonstrators have protested outside the office at least twice recently, a concern to the proprietors.
Why am I not surprised that the PLO is the kind of tenant that's routinely late paying the rent? Bet they took the fridge when they moved out, too.
