SURPRISE! PA SECURITY OFFICER REVEALED AS TERRORIST

Aqsa Martyrs Brigade Commander Revealed as PA Security Officer - Khaled Abu Toameh (Jerusalem Post)
Obituary notices distributed in the West Bank town of Salfit by Fatah and the PA's General Intelligence Force revealed that Jihad Hassan, the local commander of the Aqsa Martyrs Brigades, killed on Sunday when his M-16 rifle exploded, had doubled as a PA security officer. Residents said Hassan, who has been wanted by Israel for the past two years, recently purchased the rifle that had been apparently booby-trapped by Israel's Shin Bet. Palestinian sources said other members of the Aqsa Martyrs Brigades had been recruited to various branches of the PA security forces.
