The defenders of cowardly terrorists will be rejoicing today at the cowardly targeting of civilians by suicide murders.

Let them consider what these cowards will do to their own if they don't toe the party line. Any thought of negotiation and objectivity will be met with the same cowardly treatment as they visit on innocent civilians. Our cowardly defenders of terrorists may be next.

Group threatens Palestinian FM

Shaath has been labelled a 'traitor'

A Palestinian group has threatened to kill Palestinian Foreign Minister Nabil Shaath for participating with his Israeli counterpart in a conference in Italy.


The Jenin Martyrs Brigades said on Tuesday Shaath should have avoided all contact with Israeli Foreign Minister Silvan Shalom at a religious conference in northern Italy last week while Palestinians endured a hunger strike in Israeli prisons.

The brigades, the armed wing of the Popular Resistance Committees that band together a coalition of resistance fighters, said it decided to prevent the "traitor" Shaath from returning home to Gaza.

"He will be sentenced to death if he enters. The decision cannot be rescinded," the group said in a statement. "We call upon his bodyguards to abandon his convoy in order to save their lives."

Muhammad al-Wahaidi, a spokesman for Shaath, said the Palestinian foreign minister and Shalom never held a one-on-one meeting during the gathering in Rimini, Italy.

"Shalom was a guest there just like minister Shaath. There was a debate and minister Shaath explained the suffering of the striking prisoners and their right to better conditions and freedom," al-Wahaidi said.

Al-Wahaidi said Shaath planned to return as scheduled later on Tuesday to the West Bank city of Ram Allah from talks in Cairo between Palestinian Prime Minister Ahmad Quraya and Egyptian leaders.
