PALI TERRORISTS TO "GUARD" BUSH

Al-Aqsa Brigades Securing Bush Visit (BackSpin)
WorldNetDaily reports that members of the Al-Aqsa Brigades -- including 40 who recently received an Israeli amnesty -- will help protect the presidential convoy and secure the perimeter when George Bush visits Mahmoud Abbas:

Many Brigades members, including the group's chiefs, serve openly in Fatah's Force 17 presidential guard units and the Palestinian Preventative Security Services; thousands of Force 17 and Preventative officers are slated to secure Ramallah during Bush's visit there.

A chief of the Al Aqsa Brigades in Ramallah who also serves as a senior officer in Force 17 confirmed to WND he has been tapped to participate in Bush's security. The chief, who spoke on condition his name be withheld, said he is slated to patrol the road outside Abbas' compound during the Palestinian leader's meeting with Bush. . . .

About 40 Ramallah-based Brigades leaders, including the Brigades chief scheduled to participate in Bush's security, were granted amnesty by Prime Minister Ehud Olmert in June as a gesture to Abbas, but many Brigades members, including the Ramallah-based leadership, are accused of violating the agreement by failing to disarm and by carrying out a spate of terror attacks.

What about the ones who had US training?
