Anger and Mistrust in Gaza as Hamas Hunts for Israel "Collaborators"
(Guardian-UK) Phoebe Greenwood - On May 25, Abdullah al-Nashar, who served as a presidential guard for both Yasser Arafat and Mahmoud Abbas, was one of three men publicly executed for helping Israel assassinate Hamas military chief Mazen Fuqha in Gaza. His brothers Mohammed and Khaled al-Nashar are convinced he was killed for a crime he did not commit. Israel has officially denied that it was responsible for the killing. Since the 2014 war, Hamas has run a major campaign against the internal threat posed by collaborators. Following Fuqha's death, 45 people were arrested on charges of collaboration.
