| From Middle East Newsline.... Hizbullah was said to have infiltrated a major Israeli Arab political movement. The party was identified as the Balad movement, led by Knesset member Azmi Bishara. The sources said Hizbullah recruited and organized an insurgency cell from senior members of Balad in 2003. They said the cell was financed, trained and equipped to carry out suicide attacks against Israeli targets. On Sunday, the Israel Security Agency reported the arrest of the suspected cell, based in the area around the northern city of Nazareth. The two key operatives of the cell were identified as Ghassan and Sirhan Atmallah, arrested in January 2004. |
