Militants arrested at Arafat headquarters | |
2003-08-02 | |
Palestinian security forces have arrested about 20 wanted militants sheltering in the Ramallah compound of Palestinian President Yasser Arafat. The arrests were made in line with an agreement with the United States and Israel. Moving into Yasser Arafat's battered compound, Palestinian security forces rounded up about 20 wanted Palestinians, most of them members of the Al Aqsa Martyrs Brigades. A senior Palestinian official says the raid was part of a deal with the United States and Israel, and the arrested men will now be transferred to Palestinian jails in Jericho and the Gaza Strip.
Followup: FoxNews sez they're holed up in a room in Yasser's house and refuse to go. Yasser must have told them they don't have to if they don't want to. | |

#3 Terrorism is a business. There will be no peace in the middle east as long as Arafat is breathing. His fingerprints are all over the homicide bombings and the shootings. He pulls the strings and handles the blood money for the families. The fact that there were 20 terrorists in his compound only surprises me that there were not more. |

#2 Put it in the Yasser's "My-Little-Terrorist™" scrapbook with the rest of his transgressions, attacks, lies, killings, corruption....etc |

#1 I am always amused by the press' use of describing scum like these with the M Word (militant) instead of the T word (terrorist), which defines them to a Tee. |
