Four Palestinian organizations threatened Sunday to launch attacks on US targets in response to what they said was America’s “support of the Israeli crimes and massacres, the last of which occurred in Beit Hanoun.â€
A statement was signed by the Popular Resistance Committees, the Al-Aqsa Brigades (Fatah’s armed wing), the Fatah-affiliated Abu Rish Brigades, and another Islamic group who’s name has recently surfaced – the Tawahid Brigades. The groups warn the United States that its policy is making it “a legitimate target for Palestinian organizations and any Muslim or Palestinian around the world.†The statement also calls on “all free men everywhere and all the mujahadeen in the Islamic nation to mercilessly strike the Americans – to feed them the same food they are feeding us.â€...
There was a time when I would have said that Palestinian Arab attacks against America would be a big mistake for them. I'm no longer so sure.
Now THAT'S a surprise.
