PA Eliminating "Collaborators"

[drdon326]

The Palestinian Authority made news – and generated considerable distress among human rights groups – by executing four convicted murders on June 12. Officials let it be known that PA President Mahmoud Abbas was planning the authorization of the executions of additional Palestinians who had received death sentences.

When asked about the execution of convicted "collaborators", an Abbas aide replied, "We don't distinguish between one murderer and another." In fact, according to reports, one of the four already executed, Muhammad Khawaja, was suspected of collaboration. He was the only one of the four who met his death facing a firing squad of four masked security officers, which puts the lie to the claim of Abbas' aide that there is no distinction between how different "murders" are treated: seems the "collaborators" are singled out. That the terrorist groups applauded this action makes it all the more apparent. Abbas is buckling to their demands.

It was on February 17 that news first broke in Israel that Abbas had ratified the execution of three "collaborators", who had been charged with treason. According to the reports, the information came from one Sakher Bseiss, governor of the Northern Gaza Strip, who, it would seem, was providing a service to the PA by going public with this.

The full story, as offered by Bseiss, was that there were 51 people on death row who had been convicted of various crimes and sentenced to death within Palestinian Authority courts during Yasser Arafat's regime. Abbas, in accordance with Islamic law, which requires that all death sentences be approved by a religious authority, turned the cases over to Sheikh Ikrima Sabri, the mufti of Jerusalem, who approved the sentences as religiously valid. Abbas then put his signature on some or all of the death warrants.
