Yasser Arafat's youth and his first steps in politics and war.

When Israeli athletes are taken hostage by a Palestinian commando during the 1972 Munich Olympics, a price is put on Yasser Arafat's head.

When Abu Jihad, Yasser Arafat's right-hand man, is assassinated in 1988, the Palestinians suffer a deep wound.

In 1996, after the Oslo Accords, Yasser Arafat is recognized as the liberator of the Palestinian people.
