Former PA Intelligence Chief: PA Security "Terrorizing Women, Children"
(Jerusalem Post) Khaled Abu Toameh - In a statement on Thursday, Tawfik Tirawi, a former commander of the PA's General Intelligence Service and member of the Fatah Central Committee, "condemned the practices of some commanders of the Palestinian security forces who humiliate the sons of Fatah and terrorize women and children under various pretexts." Tirawi accused security forces of spying on Palestinians and gathering information about "patriotic" Palestinians in a way that harms them and results in their arrest. Earlier this year, Tirawi reportedly complained that he and other Palestinians were the victims of a CIA-backed wire-tapping operation carried out by PA security forces.
