PLO: "Hamas had turned mosques into detention centers for interrogating and torturing Fatah activists."

JPOST:

Over the weekend, a number of top Fatah and Palestinian Authority representatives reiterated allegations that Hamas was stealing aid from convoys that are being dispatched to the Gaza Strip. They also accused Hamas of escalating its massive crackdown on Fatah by continuing to shoot members of the faction in the legs.

Yasser Abed Rabbo, a senior PLO official and close adviser to PA President Mahmoud Abbas, claimed that Hamas had turned mosques into detention centers for interrogating and torturing Fatah activists.

WHERE'S THE OUTRAGE?

WHY DON'T BILL MOYERS AND CODE PINK AND THE ACLU PROTEST?

BECAUSE THEY'RE NOT FOR PEACE; THEY'RE ON THE OTHER SIDE.

AND THE OTHER SIDE IS EVIL.

ALSO IN THIS ARTICLE:
Scoffing at Hamas's claim that it emerged victorious from the war in the Gaza Strip, a prominent Palestinian academic and writer called on the Islamist movement to learn from the Israelis and form a Palestinian "Winograd Committee" to examine the group's performance.

"We want Hamas to form a Gazan Winograd," wrote Ahmed Abu Matar, referring to the commission that examined the government and IDF performance during the 2006 Second Lebanon War.

"We want this commission of inquiry to be as brave and daring as the Israeli one," he wrote, in an article published on a number of Fatah-run media outlets. "We want the commission to tell us whether we have achieved a new divine victory or have added another defeat to our record."

The academic's remarks are seen in the context of a fierce war of words between Hamas and Fatah, which intensified after the military offensive ended.
THIS WILL NEVER HAPPEN. BUT IT'S NICE THAT AN ARAB PALESTINIAN ASKED FOR IT; IT SHOWS THAT REALITY IS SLOWLY CREEPING IN...
