Palestinian Gunmen Join Police Force to Keep Weapons
(AP/Khaleej Times-UAE) - Hosni Abu Ghreib, 30, a member of the Al Aqsa Martyrs Brigades, figures he has a good deal. Having spent four years on the run from Israeli forces, the militant says he's hung up his mask in exchange for a Palestinian police uniform and a steady paycheck - and he still has his gun. About 200 gunmen have joined the Palestinian security forces in the towns of Tulkarm and Jericho since they were handed over to Palestinian control in March, said Palestinian legislator Abdel Fattah Hemayel.
