Fatah al-Islam claims two attacks on UN and Israel Tuesday, threatens Bush
visit
January 8, 2008, 8:47 PM (GMT+02:00)
Shaker al-Abessi, leader of Palestinan Fatah AL Islam new operational arm
in and the Gaza Strip, congratulated the teams which blew up a UN vehicle at
Rumailah in South Lebanon, injuring two Irish peacekeepers, and which fired
three Katyusha rockets at the northern Israeli town of Shlomi. The attacks,
he said, were a message to the "Crusader Army" and "the Jews," and he vowed
to step them up during the Bush visit to the region.
US and Israeli security officers planning the US president's stay starting
Wednesday, Jan. 9, have taken terrorists threats seriously enough to
rearrange his program. To avoid potential al Qaeda-related or Palestinian
anti-air missile attacks, most of his movements in Israel and Palestinian
areas will not be by helicopter but by road.
