Suspected collaborator killed in Bethlehem

In the second killing of its kind in Bethlehem in less than a month, Fatah gunmen on Monday executed a young Palestinian man suspected of collaboration with Israel.

The victim was identified as 19-year-old Jad al-Hindi.

His family said he was abducted late Sunday night by masked gunmen belonging to Fatah's armed wing, the Aksa Martyrs Brigades.

Hindi's body was discovered in an open field early Monday morning.

A Palestinian Authority security source in the city said the man had been shot in the head 12 times. He said Hindi was the 14 suspected collaborator to be killed in the Bethlehem area in the past four years.

A leaflet distributed by the Aksa Martyrs Brigades accused Hindi of helping Israel track down and kill three Fatah fugitives in Betunia, near Ramallah, last month.

Last month, the group kidnapped and killed a 23-year-old man from the nearby town of al-Khader after also accusing him of collaboration with Israel.

The man was initially freed after he agreed to carry out an attack against IDF soldiers and settlers. But when he tried to escape, his captors hanged him from a tree by his legs and tortured him for several hours before shooting him to death.

Where is the outcry of "human rights" organizations?

Don't hold your breath. Apparently Human Rights groups use two sets of standards. One set applies to countries (and entities, in this case) that support the United States, and the other set applies to our enemies. In this case, it was an internal matter in an enemy 'country', so there's no need for human rights. However, make a terrorist wear women's underwear in Iraq and you've got the second coming of Hitler.

Sick, sick bast***s!

It's politically and culturally chic (and in the words of Janeane Garafelo- "hip") these days to support the Paleoswinians. (sarcasm)

They have killed far more of their own than anyone else has. I once read that they will kill someone every so often just for an example whether they know that they informed or not.

When the perpetrator is a non-Westerner, they are usually nowhere to be found.

Hmmm. Note to self. After being freed from such morons, wait until I'm out of their sight before attempting to "escape"...

The "scorekeepers" will add this one to the total of "Palestinians" killed and then blame Israel.

FRmail me to be added or removed from this Judaic/pro-Israel ping list.

WARNING: This is a high volume ping list

Yes, but the bizarre thing is that the Western media don't play up any atrocity that is done by non-Westerners. There is nothing wrong, unless it committed by Western forces. Very few know about the mass-murders in African countries because whites aren't to blame. The blinders are on, and the plodding ignorant Western media knows only one way to plow.

I guess the point is that Muslims have somehow managed to become a 'victim group' and thus can literally be forgiven for anything they did to the 'oppressors'. To be a victim group about all you need to do is hate America and Israel.

The problem with the media reporting summary executions in victim groups, like this posted article is that the groups start looking like the monsters that they are, and they may lose their political support - you know like Arafat's revolving door at the Clinton White House.

It's pretty sick when the media won't even try to give the American public a fair chance to assess these 'victim groups', since it gets in the way of their agenda.

Thankfully the Mainstream Media is about to become its own victim group. I love it.

And "human rights" organizations will add this to the toll of killed Arabs by Israel.

Human rights organizations only go after countries with a conscience.

That is because their main support is non-western. You would not want them to bite the hand the feeds them would you!
