NABLUS, West Bank (Reuters) - A Palestinian militant group said on Saturday it had killed two West Bank men for collaborating with Israeli security forces.The bullet-riddled bodies of the dead Palestinians, both from villages near Nablus, were brought to the city hospital after they were apparently shot in separate incidents, medical officials said. Al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades, an offshoot of Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat's Fatah movement, said in a statement it had killed the men for "collaborating" with Israel but did not elaborate. Medical officials gave the men's ages as 28 and 45.
Palestinians have killed dozens of the their brethren accused of helping Israeli forces track and kill Palestinian militants taking part in the Palestinian uprising which erupted in September 2000 after peace talks stalled.
Of course they won't criticize this. How could you criticize the thugs you love?
