Palestinian Woman Executed in Nablus


(Jerusalem Post) Khaled Abu Toameh - Masked men belonging to Fatah's al-Aksa Martyrs' Brigades shot dead Haifa Sultan, 39, in Nablus on Friday night after accusing her of collaboration with Israel. "She shouted and cried that she was innocent but they shot her in the head and she died instantly," said a resident of the casbah. Her younger sister, Adibeh, was also accused of collaboration and was shot in the legs. One Fatah activist said the plan was to kill the two women, "but for some reason the younger sister was only injured. There is a debate now whether she too should be killed. Some say she should be taken out hospital and executed while others claim she is innocent."
