Justice Palestinian Style
Two young Palestinian men suspected of "collaboration" with Israel were murdered in the Nablus area over the weekend.
They said the man died instantly after being hit in the head with at least 25 bullets. The assailants and camp residents refused to allow an ambulance to take the body to a hospital. Instead, they threw it into a nearby dumpster.
The second victim was murdered on Saturday, also by Fatah gunmen. He was identified as Ramzi Assi, 18, also a resident of Nablus. Sources in the city said his bullet-riddled body was thrown from a passing vehicle outside the Rafidiyeh Hospital. They said the gunmen accused him of assisting Israel in the killing of two of their colleagues last year.
"We didn't use any form of physical pressure," a spokesman for the Aksa Martyrs Brigades claimed. "The confession was videotaped and the fact that there weren't any signs of abuse on his body shows that he hadn't been tortured."
Doctor Horsefeathers sums it up here.
