He will be doing this with our money. The US taxpayer will pay for this.

A terrorist has an old weapon? The US will give him money both to buy a new weapon and a brand new TV.

Abu Abbas, kill a jew, and then come on down and pick a door filled with American prizes.

Imagine if you read "also offered a signup bonus of at least US$6,000 to Al Quida members who leave the militia and join the security forces"

There would be justifiable marches on Washington. By Republicans.

Dahlin has recently indicated that the Al Asqua Martyrs would be "disarmed". Of course, individuals would become operatives of the parent, Fatah, if they so desired, AM Martyrs are members of Fatah anyway. I figured they'd simply turn in their weapons, then have them reissued, maybe with a different color head sheet. This is a much better idea, we buy the weapons, then give them back. I'm impressed with the skill these guys have making the west dance to their tune.
