(Newsday) Andrew Metz - On a rutted road through terrain frequently used by militants to stage rocket attacks against Israel, three Palestinian police officers unenthusiastically manned their posts. The day before, Mahmoud Abbas had ordered Palestinian security forces to prevent militant operations. "I'm not ready to shoot at my cousin or brother," said one of the men.

"If it comes to fighting these organizations, we will lose and there will be a bloodbath."2005-01-20 00:00:00Full Article
