PLO: Al Jazeera hurting Abbas like Israel hurt Arafat
Secretary General of the Palestine Liberation Organization Yasser Abed Rabo claimed Monday that Al Jazeera was trying to systematically hurt the Palestinian Authority and its president, Mahmoud Abbas, in the same way Israel hurt Yasser Arafat.
"A similar campaign was waged against Abu Ammar (Arafat) before Camp David. Everyone agrees that the hands that murdered Abu Ammar were Israeli hands. What they did to Abu Ammar, Al Jazeera is doing to Abu Mazen (Abbas). It puts him under international scrutiny," he said. (Ynet)
