ENOUGH! TRY THEM FOR TREASON.


GAZA, (PIC)-- The interior ministry in Gaza unveiled Monday that it discovered a spy ring affiliated with the PA security apparatuses in the West Bank which collaborated with Israel during its war on the Strip, where it provided information about places, tunnels, Palestinian leaders and most importantly the resistance.

Spokesman for the ministry Ihab Al-Ghussein and director of the analysis and information office in the internal security Abu Abdullah displayed videotaped confessions during a news conference of some members of this spy ring which confirmed that they were officially assigned to scout and reveal the movements of the Palestinian resistance fighters and the security apparatuses in Gaza.

Ghussein noted that the Hamas Movement committed itself to what had been agreed upon and stopped media campaigns, but it was surprised to hear the statements of a senior Fatah leader called Samir Al-Mashharawi on Palestine TV in which he made lies and fabrications proving that he is not concerned with dialog and reconciliation.

For his part, Abu Abdullah revealed that this spy ring had worked before the Israeli war on Gaza on preparing maps illustrating mosques, institutions, locations of tunnels and some other places at the behest of PA security leaders in the West Bank.

The internal security official said that these groups also drew a map of premier Ismail Haneyya's house and some locations occupied by security elements and resistance fighters.

The Palestinian official added that Baha Ba'lousha, a wanted fugitive from Gaza, communicated with some groups in the Strip and asked them to collect information on Hamas and Palestinian rockets, while convict Hijazi Al-Ghafri tried to gather information about the Israeli captive soldier and hired private sources in Sinai to send him information about tunnels, ways of getting weapons and money transfer companies dealing with Hamas and Islamic Jihad.

Abu Abdullah noted that this ring worked during the war on spreading rumors such as about Israeli intentions to invade certain areas which led to a mass exodus of Palestinian families from those areas in addition to rumoring about fake whereabouts of leaders such as they claiming that they were hiding in the Shifa hospital or saying Gaza mosques were used as arms depots.

He said that some spies confessed to keeping slain minister of interior Sa'eed Siyam under surveillance and revealing his appointments and places of meetings.

The ministry of interior held ex-PA chief Mahmoud Abbas fully responsible for the crimes of high treason committed by these spies in coordination with the PA security apparatuses in the West Bank.

Abbas renews insistence on talks with IOA


(.....) Mahmoud Abbas, the former PA chief and Fatah leader, has declared his insistence on maintaining negotiations with the Israeli occupation authority despite results of the latest Israeli general elections.

(.....) Leader of the right-wing Likud party Benjamin Netanyahu, who was assigned by Israeli president Shimon Peres to form the new government, had ruled out the establishment of a Palestinian state. He promised the far right national union party that the broad lines of his coalition would not mention a Palestinian state, roadmap plan or the Annapolis conference.
