On November 1, about 300 anti-American demonstrators protested U.S. use of the death penalty and the capital sentence on Mumia Abu-Jamal, the former Black Panther and radio journalist convicted for killing a Philadelphia policeman 18 years ago. They clashed with Norwegian riot police in Oslo near where President Clinton attended a banquet at King Harald's palace. Clinton was in Oslo for a summit with Israeli and Palestinian leaders and a memorial service for late Israeli prime minister Yitzhak Rabin, assassinated in 1995.
