Terrorist gunmen belonging to Mahmoud Abbas's Fatah Al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades, the official "military wing" of Fatah, ambushed Israeli police officers as they were driving along a road from Hevron.
From CBN: "Two officers, one in critical and one in serious condition, were airlifted to Jerusalem's Hadassah Ein Kerem Hospital and Soroka Hospital in Beersheva." "Command Sgt. Maj. Yehoshua Sofer, 39, succumbed to his injuries at the hospital." "Both officers were shot in the chest, according to Magen David Adom paramedics at the scene of the attack. A third officer sustained less serious gunshot wounds and a fourth was lightly injured by shrapnel." "The al-Aksa Martyrs' Brigades, the "armed wing" of the Palestinian Authority's Fatah faction, claimed responsibility for the shooting attack."
Mahmoud Abbas's PLO Fatah, which runs the "Palestinian Authority", held a convention for it's members August '09.
At the convention Fatah delegates officially endorsed a U.S. recognized terrorist organization, the Al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades, as the "military wing" of Fatah.
Fatah and the Al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades are both the same organization.
U.S. funding of the Fatah Palestinian Authority is therefore the funding of a known terrorist organization, and is illegal according to U.S. law.
Misappropriation of taxpayer money by State Dept., Administration, or members of Congress are serious offenses.
It was Mahmoud Abbas, the so-called "moderate". who hand picked Mohammed Damra, an Al-Aqsa brigades terror commander, to serve as head of his Force 17.

Is that who Obama is giving money to, or is it some other terror group?
Both, Fatah and the Hamas terrorists in Gaza.
Bare Naked Islam:
“Netanyahu got a door slammed in his face—Abbas gets $400 million for Hamas.”
What you have to understand is that these guys are so much more democratic and representative of the Palestinians than Hamas is, and how necessary they are to the peace process. /s
Vaporization, the final end to a growing problem.
Fatah does not want peace. Abbas does not want peace. They want nothing less than the total destruction of Israel which is fueled by Islamic jihad ideology.
The only difference between Fatah and Hamas is that Hamas is more honest about their true intentions. Whereas Fatah seeks to use the so-called “peace process” as a tactic to gain concessions from Israel, while their ultimate objective to completely destroy Israel remains unchanged.
Our view of Fatah should be no different than our view of Al-qaeda. They are all Islamists who want to advance the global jihad.
