JERUSALEM – Members of the most active West Bank terror organization are set to participate in security forces being deployed to protect President Bush during his visit to the Palestinian territories next month, WND has learned.
During his trip, the American president is scheduled to hold talks with Israeli leaders in Jerusalem, and meet quickly with Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas in the West Bank city of Ramallah.
According to Israeli security officials coordinating deployments of forces with the PA for Bush's Ramallah visit, members of the Al Aqsa Martyrs Brigades, Fatah's declared military wing, have been called upon by the PA to participate in the protection of Bush's convoy and in securing the parameter during the meeting with Abbas.
The Brigades is listed as a terror organization by the U.S. State Department. The group took credit along with the Islamic Jihad terror organization for every suicide bombing in Israel between 2005 and 2006, and is responsible for thousands of shootings and rocket firings. Statistically, the Al Aqsa Brigades perpetuated more terrorism from the West Bank than Hamas, according to the Israeli Defense Forces.
Many Brigades members, including the group's chiefs, serve openly in Fatah's Force 17 presidential guard units and the Palestinian Preventative Security Services; thousands of Force 17 and Preventative officers are slated to secure Ramallah during Bush's visit there.
A chief of the Al Aqsa Brigades in Ramallah who also serves as a senior officer in Force 17 confirmed to WND he has been tapped to participate in Bush's security. The chief, who spoke on condition his name be withheld, said he is slated to patrol the road outside Abbas' compound during the Palestinian leader's meeting with Bush.

Excuse me, but I need more “evidence” than THIS that the Secret Service has turned the life of President Bush over to Palestinian terrorists. If you accept this as published, then I ask you to explain, why would the Secret Service do such a thing.
???????
I didn’t write the article, publish it or post the thread.
If you have any questions you can ask:
The poster, or write Aaron Klein at WorldNetDaily, or ask the Secret Service.
I am a housewife.
I cannot verify this article one way or the other.
Thank you for your feedback, txrangerette.
“If you accept this as published, then I ask you to explain”
We don’t believe 90% of what we post. That’s why we post it, so we can all expose it. He He.
Great tagline material. Sounds almost Gore-esque... (no offense... LOL).
Did Pelosi and Reid set up this trip?
That headline brings me great comfort. I’m just warm and tingly all over.
I refuse to believe that the President of the United States would trust his safety and security to a bunch of terrorist thugs.
