Bahar: Abbas-Fayyadh authority is an Israeli tool against Palestinian resistance

GAZA, (PIC)-- The Palestinian legislature has warned the Abbas's security forces in the West Bank not to direct their guns to the Palestinian resistance fighters as the Israeli occupation authority wishes, stressing that such unpatriotic practices harm the Palestinian national dialogue.

Acting-speaker of the legislature MP Dr. Ahmad Bahar described what had happened in Qalqilia as "black day" in the calendar of Abbas-Fayyadh authority in the West Bank, underlining that the killing of five Hamas fighters at the hands of those forces adds more crimes to their black records against the Palestinian people.

"It is clear now after this heinous crime, which comes couple of days after the killing of two Hamas fighters in Qalqilia, that the PA security forces in the West Bank became a burden on the Palestinian people, and act on orders of the US [security coordinator] general Keith Dayton to preserve security for the Israelis", Bahar underlined in a statement the Palestinian parliament issued in this regard.

He added that the legislature was mulling a number of measures against Abbas, Fayyadh, and leaders of the PA security forces in the West Bank to hold them accountable for their heinous crimes against the Palestinian people, explaining that public clamor was mounting to establish a special national court to prosecute them and to put an end to their crimes.

Furthermore, Bahar deprecated the Abbas's forces' arrest of Palestinian lawmaker Dr. Mahmoud Al-Ramahi, who was recently released from Israeli jails after three years of illegal detention, and the storming of the house of MP Mohammed Abu Juhaisha, who was kidnapped by the IOF troops three years ago, and the arrest of his son in Al-Khalil city, vowing that the PLC won't stand arms-folded vis-à-vis the crimes of Abbas against the democratically elected Palestinian legislators.

Palestinians factions say: perpetrators of Qalqilia massacre must be prosecuted

[ 05/06/2009 - 07:36 PM ]

GAZA, (PIC)-- Five Palestinian resistance factions have held Fatah leader Mahmoud Abbas, and his "illegitimate" Prime Minister Salam Fayyadh fully responsible for the two massacres in Qalqilia city that claimed the lives five Hamas fighters in two days.

In a joint press conference held by the five factions namely: the Nasser Salahuddin Brigades, the PFLP-GC, the Popular Struggle Front, the Palestinian Ahrar Movement, and the Liberation War Vanguards confirmed that Abbas and Fayyadh were directly responsible for the heinous carnage in Qalqilia.

Three Palestinian fighters from Hamas Movement were martyred a couple of days ago when Abbas's security forces surrounded the house where they were sheltered and asked them to surrender. On Thursday another two Hamas fighters were also killed at the hands of the US-trained and financed troops of Abbas.

The Hebrew Ha'artez news paper revealed that Abbas's forces drowned the three fighters by pumping water inside their hideout.

Raja urges PLO factions to lift political cover off Abbas's gangs

DAMASCUS, (PIC)-- Anwar Raja, the prominent political figure in the PFLP-GC, said on Thursday that the events in Qalqilia city should propel the PLO factions to lift the political cover off the "tyrant" group that shed Palestinian blood in the West Bank to please the Zionists and the Americans.

"It is about time for the PLO factions to abandon neutrality and to say their word about the ill practices of Abbas's security forces against the Palestinian people, Palestinian women, mosque preachers, politicians, intellectuals, and against everyone who speaks a word for the sake of Palestine", underlined Raja in an interview with the PIC in the Syrian capital Damascus.

He pointed out that the unfortunate events in the West Bank city of Qalqilia were strong indicator that the Abbas-led PA in Ramallah city was ready to do everything to accredit their papers with the Zionists and the Americans.

He also underscored that the events in Qalqilia proved that the Fatah faction that is led by Abbas wasn’t sincere in achieving national reconciliation or in restoring the Palestinian national unity, charging that Fatah has used the dialogue as means to gain time in order to attack and finish off the Palestinian resistance in the appropriate time.

The PFLP-GC leader shrugged off Abbas's statements that he (Abbas) wouldn’t tolerate any weapons beside the "legitimate" weapons of the PA security forces in the West Bank, saying, "What kind of legitimacy they (Abbas and retinues) were talking about at a time they arrest the Mujahideen, chase the resistance, and wait for the appropriate time to wipe out the Palestinian resistance against the IOA in the West Bank".

Raja also deprecated Abbas for clearly abandoning the resistance option although the Palestinian people were still under the Zionist occupation.

"The compassionate stands of the PA security forces with Israeli settlers in the West Bank, and the harsh stands they demonstrate against their fellow Palestinians confirm the fact that there could be no half-solutions with Abbas and his forces because what had happened in Qalqilia was avery serious matter, and considered as the death nail in the coffin of the eroded Abbas's PA", highlighted Raja.

Finally, Raja called on the Palestinian resistance factions to practically start forming the new Palestinian political authority away from the "useless" Palestinian dialogue in Cairo.
