[Jerusalem Post] Khaled Abu Toameh - Palestinians in the West Bank and Gaza Strip have expressed their desire to travel to Lebanon to join Hizballah in the current confrontation with Israel, PA security officials in Ramallah said. "Many young men, including members of the Palestinian security forces, want to join the fight against Israel in Lebanon," said one official. Some veteran PLO security officers who were based in Beirut in the 1970s and 1980s had also asked for permission to travel to Lebanon to help Hizballah. "Hizballah has taught Israel a good lesson and as Arabs and Muslims we are very proud of them," said PA policeman Muhammad Masri.
