Another remarkable display of bloodthirsty savagery from those lovely Palestinians: Palestinians Execute ‘Collaborator’ in Town Square. Let’s give them a state!

QABATIYA, West Bank (Reuters) - Palestinian militants publicly executed an accused collaborator with Israel with machineguns in a West Bank town square on Friday after a throng of Palestinian onlookers called for him to die.

Wild celebrations broke out among the hundreds of spectators after four gunmen from the al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades, part of President Yasser Arafat’s Fatah movement, shot father-of-two Muhammad Rafiq Daraghmeh, 45, in Qabatiya.

Militants had hustled Daraghmeh into the square before assembled townsfolk and told them: “This man, as you know … gave information to Israel on the whereabouts of our fighters. What should his sentence be?”

“Execution!” roared the crowd.

The militants gunned down Daraghmeh seconds later and residents both young and old cheered and chanted around his prone, bloodied corpse. A Reuters correspondent witnessed the execution.

I wouldn’t be surprised to find out the al-Reuters correspondent took part.
