Palestinians Rally for Murder Suspects
The most amazing thing about the Palestinian Arabs is that the world doesn’t see right through every single one of their transparent schemes.
I didn’t even bother noting that the PA had put four random idiots (one of whom is actually named “Abu Fool”) on trial for the murders of three Americans in a diplomatic convoy, because it was such an obvious sham. But today the Palestinians show that they can’t even pull off a proper sham trial, by pouring into the streets, seething and raging, and demanding that the PA release the four buffoons: Palestinians Rally for U.S. Convoy Bombing Suspects.
GAZA (Reuters) - Thousands of Palestinians took to the streets in Gaza City on Friday to urge President Yasser Arafat to free four militants who are on trial for the killing of three U.S. security guards last October.
Dozens of armed and masked activists of the militant Popular Resistance Committees (PRC) were among those who marched to Gaza’s main prison where the suspects are being held in custody.
Demonstrators accused the Palestinian Authority of bowing to pressure from the United States and Israel in holding the men.
The suspects told a military court earlier this month they had nothing to do with the October 15 bomb attack against a U.S. diplomatic convoy in the Gaza Strip in which the three American guards were killed.
The hastily convened hearing was called days after U.S. officials complained the Palestinian Authority had not cooperated fully in its investigation of the bombing.
U.S. officials voiced dissatisfaction over the military proceedings and the Palestinian Authority announced the trial would continue in a civilian court, where the suspects would have better access to their lawyers.
It’s not a coincidence, by the way, that these huge rallies always seem to take place on Friday—they’re coming directly out of the mosques, whipped into a frenzy by preachers of the Religion of Peace™.
