Fatah, Hamas, Islamic Jihad Ignore Weapons Prohibition Reported: 05:38 AM - Jun/27/07
(IsraelNN.com) Members of the Fatah, Islamic Jihad, and Hamas terrorist groups, the three largest terrorist groups in Judea and Samaria, have announced that they do not plan to obey an order by Palestinian Authority Chairman Mahmoud Abbas forbidding unauthorized weapons. Abbas issued the order on Tuesday night as part of his campaign against Hamas.
The Al-Aksa Martyrs Brigade, which is linked to Abbas’s Fatah, was among those to announce an intention to keep their weapons. Zacharia Zubeidi, the group’s head in Jenin, said, “Abu Mazen [a/k/a Abbas] meant the illegal weapons owned by criminal organizations, but our weapons are legitimate—the weapons of the resistance organizations.” Another wanted terrorist, Abu Aziz, called Abbas’s proclamation “irresponsible,” but said he would consider turning in his weapons if Israel would guarantee his safety. ![]() Check out the Chill Zone - Funny, Entertaining Videos © IsraelNN Syndications - This article may not be republished freely.
