New leader of Fatah al Islam says 15 leading members were killed & buried
2007-06-14
Shahine Shahine,a Moroccan who is the new leader of Fatah al Islam , said 15 leading members of the Islamist organization were killed and buried inside the camp.
And he volunteered to be the next leader? Forward thinking isn't his strong suit.
He did not disclose the whereabouts of their former leader shaker Absi, a Palestinian and his Lebanese deputy Abu Hureira , but earlier he speculated the following :
1- They( meaning Absi and Abu Hureira are either dead ( since nothing has been heard of them for almost 1 week)
2- Or they are wounded and hiding someplace inside the camp
3- Or they may have managed to escape from the camp
Some analysts speculated that the soon to be late, lamented new leader may have them under house arrest. Shahine used to be in charge of the finances of Fatah al Islam but he now appears to be directing all the activities , including the military operation .
