Israeli army arrests Palestinian lawmaker
The Israeli occupation army on Monday arrested Palestinian lawmaker, Hussam Khader, a prominent critic of Yasser Arafatâs authority. Palestinian sources in Nablus said Israeli soldiers stormed Khaderâs home in Nablus around dawn Monday before arresting him and whisking him away. The sources said Israeli occupation troops confiscated a computer and several files belonging to Khader. The Israeli state-run radio quoted an army source as accusing Khader of âinvolvement in terrorist activities.â Khader has been a focal critic of Yasser Arafatâs autocracy, often accusing him of graft, corruption and surrounding himself with hangers-on and self-serving aides.
None of which, mind you, keeps him from being involved in terrorism...
