Dichter: Hamas spends 90% of time in hiding
2003-11-23
JPost Reg Req’d
Shin Bet chief Avi Dichter told the cabinet at its weekly meeting Sunday that Hamas leaders are spending 90 percent of their time in hiding and only 10 percent on planning terror attacks against Israel.
Chopper sounds send them scurrying like roaches when the light’s turned on ...heh heh
"They are interested in a Hudna [temporary cease-fire] so they can come out of underground and strengthen their terror infrastructure," Dichter said.
he gets it
Palestinian Authority Prime Minister Ahmed Qurei has been working on trying to achieve a Hudna with the different Palestinian terror organizations over the past few weeks. Qurei’s plan is to reach an understanding on a cease-fire with the various Palestinian factions, and then try to persuade Israel to join the truce as a partner. On Wednesday, Qurei told leaders of Palestinian factions in Gaza City that there can be no such thing as a ’free Hudna’ and that Israel would be required to reciprocate for a cessation of terrorist attacks.
how about.....no?
Dichter told the ministers that 14 suicide attacks have been thwarted recently and that there was a significant rise in attempts to carry out attacks during the month of Ramadan, the Muslim month of fasting.
ROPma....the attacks this Ramadan show all the hand-wringing about not attacking muslims during Ramadan (remember Clinton?) was so much western guilt and projection. the muslims seem to find it particularly islamic to boom then
According to Dichter, 9% of the Palestinian Authority’s budget goes to Yasser Arafat. The amount, Dichter said, is larger than the entire Palestinian health budget and parts of it are transferred to terror organizations.
wow! He cut back to 9%...must be all the bad publicity lately
