"Senior Fatah official killed in Lebanon blast; Was visiting Palestinian refugee camp" by Hussein Dakroub, Associated Press | March 24, 2009
BEIRUT - An explosion in southern Lebanon yesterday killed a senior Fatah official and three of his bodyguards as they were leaving a Palestinian refugee camp.
The blast, apparently from a roadside bomb, struck a two-car convoy carrying Fatah's Kamal Madhat as they left the Mieh Mieh camp near the southern port city of Sidon, killing Madhat and the bodyguards, Lebanese and Palestinian security officials said. A fourth bodyguard was wounded.
Madhat's car was completely gutted in the explosion that left a 16-foot-wide crater, the officials said, speaking on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to talk to the media. The vehicle was thrown off the road into a valley. Madhat, 55, was visiting the Mieh Mieh camp to offer condolences to families of two Fatah members who were killed Saturday in a gunfight in a personal dispute in the camp.
The blast was heard across Sidon. Witnesses said pieces of torn flesh were scattered near the bomb site, as ambulances and civil defense rushed to evacuate the victims.
The HALLMARKS of ISRAEL!!!
The Mieh Mieh camp and the nearby Ein el-Hilweh camp are mainly controlled by Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas's mainstream Fatah group. Madhat was a military, political, and security aide to Abbas Zaki, a close aide to Abbas and the top Palestinian official in the country. Zaki described the killing as "cowardly."
Madhat also served as a personal bodyguard to the late PLO Chairman Yasser Arafat in Beirut in the 1980s. No one claimed responsibility for the bombing, and Lebanese authorities released no official statements. It was not immediately known if Zaki could have been the target, since he had left the camp only a few hours earlier.
It was also unclear if the blast was related to a reported power struggle among Fatah members in Lebanon. Madhat was known to have enemies within and outside Fatah, mainly extremist Islamic groups opposing Abbas's peace deals with Israel.
Sultan Abul-Einein, a senior Fatah commander in Lebanon, described Madhat's killing as a "tragedy." He warned in a television interview that yesterday's bombing could be the beginning of a "cycle" to target other Fatah officials in Lebanon.
Osama Hamdan, Lebanon's representative of the rival militant Hamas group, condemned Madhat's killing as "a despicable crime." He said Madhat had played "a major role" in efforts to unify rival Palestinian factions, especially between Fatah and Hamas.
Several rounds of Egyptian-mediated talks between rivals Fatah and Hamas broke down last week without a deal on a national unity government.
Oh, the STENCH of MOSSAD, readers!!!

CAIRO - Egyptian-mediated talks between rival Palestinian factions broke down yesterday without a deal on a national unity government, in a major setback to Israeli-Palestinian peace efforts.
And CUI BONO?
The failure of talks between rivals Hamas and Fatah also could deepen the divisions among Arab countries ahead of a crucial summit later this month in Qatar that US-allied Mideast heavyweights including Saudi Arabia had hoped would unite the fractured region.
Yesterday's failure to form a unity government came just two days after negotiations in Cairo between the Gaza Strip's Hamas rulers and Israel over a prisoner swap ran aground. The deadlock in both negotiating tracks raised questions about plans by the international community to rebuild parts of Gaza, devastated in Israel's recent military offensive against Hamas.
Gaza's borders have been virtually sealed since Hamas seized the territory by force in June 2007, and international aid groups have said reconstruction of the war damage is impossible without open borders.
Notice how Israel is the only one benefiting here?
Israeli officials repeatedly have said the Gaza blockade would not be lifted until Israeli soldier Gilad Schalit is freed. Gaza militants captured Schalit in a cross-border raid in 2006, and Egypt had been negotiating a prisoner swap deal - Schalit in exchange for 1,200 Palestinian prisoners in Israel.
How's the Tel Avivi hotel room, Shalit?
But no deal was reached by Tuesday's deadline. Outgoing Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert has said efforts would continue. Olmert's designated successor, hard-line leader Benjamin Netanyahu, is unlikely to go further than Olmert in making concessions to Hamas, particularly if he brings hawkish parties into his coalition, as expected.
This week's failures in both negotiating tracks will hamper efforts to reach a durable truce between Israel and Hamas, instead raising the likelihood of escalation along the Israel-Gaza border.
But will the MSM tell us?
The breakdown also comes less than two weeks before the Arab League summit in Qatar that is expected to be overshadowed by inter-Arab conflicts, including a sharp division on how to deal the Palestinian feud.
Is that just the Muslim-hating, anti-Arab joo press pushing prop again?!!!!

JERUSALEM - A somber Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert blamed Hamas yesterday for deadlocked talks that failed to win freedom for a soldier held nearly three years in Gaza, declaring that Israel would not free all the prisoners demanded by the Islamic militants in exchange....
Olmert's tone indicated that there was no chance for a deal while he is premier. Benjamin Netanyahu is putting together Israel's next government, which is expected to be a hard-line team less sympathetic to Hamas demands.
There never was anyway. With the Zionists, it's always "one more thing."
The failure of the prisoner swap talks could set off a chain reaction of negative developments. Israeli officials repeated yesterday that a blockade on Gaza will not be lifted until the soldier is returned home. That would seriously impede reconstruction after Israel's bruising January offensive in Gaza and it could hamper efforts to cement a truce between Israel and Hamas, leaving the danger of another sudden escalation.
And CUI BONO, 'eh? Bibi's going to war!!!
The soldier, Sergeant Gilad Schalit, 22, was captured in a June 2006 cross-border raid by Hamas-linked militants who killed two other soldiers. His case has become an emotional touchstone for many Israelis.
The BIAS is UNCONSCIONABLE!!!!
"Israel presented generous far-reaching proposals to the other side that were supposed to bring about the release of Gilad," Olmert said. "These proposals were rejected. Others will not be handed over to the Hamas. There are red lines. We will not cross them."
NaZionist Jews make me want to puke.
**************
After Olmert spoke, Hamas spokesman Fawzi Barhoum said Hamas had never changed its demands and was not concerned about the incoming Israeli government. "It is going to be no different, and no change and no compromise on our demands," he said.
Israel is holding an estimated 8,000 Palestinian prisoners, and Hamas wants some 1,200 freed, including 450 who masterminded or were otherwise involved in suicide bombings and other deadly assaults. Israel balked at approving the entire list and wanted to deport some of the more notorious prisoners, fearing they would resume their militant activity if they returned home, Israeli officials said.
Yup, Israel's torture chambers get a sentence.
An Israeli official, speaking on condition of anonymity because of the sensitivity of the issue, said Israel agreed to free 320 of the 450 prisoners. He said a deal could still be struck if Hamas presented a new list of 450. That would be most unlikely after a year of contacts, with Hamas saying it would not compromise.
A message on a Hamas website yesterday threatened abduction of more Israeli soldiers "to release our prisoners."
And CUI BONO? Is that a mistranslation or....?
Among the prisoners Israel was prepared to free, on condition that they be deported, was Walid Anjes, 28. He was convicted of delivering bombs to attackers who hit major targets, like the Hebrew University and a cafe across from the Jerusalem residence of the prime minister in 2002, killing dozens.
Yup, if Israel lets 'em go the terrorists will be back in action. I'm so sick of this jewish propaganda posing as "news."
Israeli critics of such a deal have warned that hard-core militants could return to violence, as has happened in the past....
Thank God Israel isn't violent, huh? The way their elections go, the same could be said about those NaZionist f****!
