| Palestinian and Lebanese groups said the European Union showed bias toward Israel when it called for the dismantling of Hamas and Islamic Jihad. The European demand is "a continuation of the deception of the hateful West," said Ramadan Abdullah Shallah, leader of the Syrian-based militant Islamic Jihad group. Ahmed Jibril, leader of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine-General Command, said the Palestinian uprising would continue and would resist all "maneuvers against it." Sheikh Naim Kassem, deputy secretary-general of the Lebanese Hizbullah, said describing Hamas and Islamic Jihad as terrorist groups showed "complete bias toward Israel." Of course, it might have had something to do with the rat poison, or the unrelenting wave of suicide bombers every time someone mentions "peace." Or maybe it was the combination of the two. Wonder how long until a few Euro targets are blown? |
