Israeli army arrests Palestinian lawmaker
2003-03-17
The Israeli occupation army on Monday arrested Palestinian lawmaker, Hussam Khader, a prominent critic of Yasser Arafat’s authority. Palestinian sources in Nablus said Israeli soldiers stormed Khader’s 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 “involvement in terrorist activities.’ Khader has been a focal critic of Yasser Arafat’s 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...

#2  The IDF has been taking it to Hamas and Islamic Jihad pretty good lately, both of these groups are political opponents to the PLO. And now they arrested Arafat's hated foe.
A guy who is a conspiracy nut could think that Sharon and Arafat are in cahoots in eliminating the PLO's opponents.
