Palestinian leader says he is proud to be branded a ‘global terrorist' by U.S.
 [WAPO] GAZA CITY -- Fathi Hammad said that he is pleased to be named a "global terrorist" by the United States. On Friday, the State Department branded the senior Hamas leader a "specially designated global terrorist." That is a rarefied list of international enemies belonging to organizations such as al-Qaeda, Boko Haram, Hezbollah, the Taliban, the Jewish Kahane group, Algerian Salafists, the Islamic State and Hamas, among others. On Saturday, Hammad told The Washington Post: "The decision only makes me more confident about my path. The threat of killing or arrest? It doesn’t freak me out, not at all. I am looking forward to it." Hammad said, "I feel proud that I managed to anger America."
