Barghouti Asked Arafat for Terror Money
(Jerusalem Post) Former Tanzim chief Marwan Barghouti asked Yasser Arafat for tens of thousands of shekels to finance the acquisition of weapons and their delivery to terrorists, according to testimony by the IDF Intelligence Branch's research division at Barghouti's trial on murder and terrorism charges Wednesday. Submitted documents included a request by Barghouti to pay legal fees for a man accused of taking part in the lynching of two Israeli reservists in the Ramallah police station. According to IDF testimony, many Fatah terrorists saw Barghouti as the top source of authority for their planned actions and as a conduit to PA Chairman Arafat.
