Zionist security sources have claimed that the Zionist army and the security apparatus the Shin Beth have arrested two Hamas cells that were planning to assassinate Zionist premier Ariel Sharon. The sources said that one of those cells was arrested in Bethlehem district two weeks ago. They said that head of that cell Fadi Murtaja had planned to attack Sharon's motorcade in occupied Al-Quds. The sources alleged that Murtaja was receiving direct orders from the Hamas Movement leadership in the Gaza Strip.
There's been an unspoken agreement for both sides not to go after each other's political leadership. When the PFLP broke it, with the killing of Tourism Minister Rehavam Zeevi, the IDF went after them hammer and tongs, and PFLP head Ahmed Saadat ended up getting busted by the PLO, if only for a little while, and then seriously jugged as one of the conditions for the IDF pulling back from the West Bank last April. Last time we checked, he was still jugged — for his own protection as much as anything else, because if he's sprung the IDF will kill him. His little brother had also been iced, and the little woman was jugged. Last September, the PFLP was described as "effectively wiped out", at least for awhile, until more cannon fodder could be recruited and some promising young thugs brought into middle management. |
