Barghouti Indictment Reveals Pyramid of Terror
(Jerusalem Post) Dan Izenberg - Marwan Barghouti is head of the West Bank Fatah organization, the Tanzim, and the Al-Aksa Martyrs Brigades, all of which have been declared terrorist organizations by Israel. Barghouti was indicted on charges including premeditated murder, accessory to murder, incitement to murder, attempted murder, conspiracy to commit murder, and participation and membership in a terrorist organization. The indictment includes a list of 37 operations carried out or attempted by terrorists under Barghouti's command that claimed the lives of 26 Israelis. Barghouti was always informed and updated about the actions of his field commanders and knew in advance about attacks. He was directly involved in enlisting activists for the organizations, persuading them to take part in terrorist operations, and providing the logistics for their operations. He was also involved in their financing, arming, and training.
