Palestinians Rejoice at Saddam's "Victories"
(Jerusalem Post) - Khaled Abu Toameh Palestinians in Ramallah celebrated the capture of American and British soldiers by the Iraqi army on Monday. "This is a big day for the Iraqi people and all the Arabs and Muslims," says a mustachioed Palestinian policeman at Yasser Arafat's headquarters in the city. "They have just shot down two Apache helicopters," an excited merchant shouted hysterically as he ran out of his shop. Manarah Square in the center of Ramallah, the scene of daily pro-Saddam demonstrations, is decorated with Iraqi flags and posters of Saddam Hussein.
