Hamas thugs are smuggling money in suitcases like Mafia bag men: Palestinian carries millions in suitcase.

GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip - Palestinian Foreign Minister Mahmoud Zahar, who has been seeking to raise money for the financially strapped government, returned to the Gaza Strip on Wednesday with a suitcase full of cash, Palestinians officials said.

An official said Zahar was believed to be carrying up to $20 million. The official spoke on condition of anonymity because he wasn’t authorized to speak to the media. An official statement was expected later Wednesday.

UPDATE at 6/14/06 10:20:06 am:

In April, Zahar claimed that $450,000 was stolen from his hotel room in Kuwait.
