Abbas Steps Up Crackdown on Critics
(Jerusalem Post) Khaled Abu Toameh - PA security forces arrested 23 Palestinians in Ramallah on Saturday who were planning to participate in a protest to demand justice for slain anti-corruption activist Nizar Banat, who was beaten to death by PA security officers in June. Most of those arrested are affiliated with Palestinian Islamic Jihad, Hamas, the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP), and the Democratic Front for the Liberation of Palestine (DFLP).
