ABBAS: DEATH OF HUNGER STRIKING PRISONERS
WILL LAUNCH 'DISASTER'
PA Chairman Mahmoud Abbas is warning of a "disaster" if any of the Arab prisoners dies while carrying out a hunger strike in an Israeli prison. Hundreds of Palestinian Authority Arab prisoners began a hunger strike more than a week ago in solidarity with six inmates who have been starving themselves for more than 45 days. Two prisoners – both active members of the Islamic Jihad terror organization -- have been fasting for 71 days. One received medical care in a hospital and was returned to prison. The Supreme Court this week rejected an appeal by both to be set free. A commander in the Islamic Jihad terror group warned Sunday that the death of any hunger striker in prison will touch off a third intifada. (C) Chana Ya'ar.
