The militia consists of bands of gunmen who do not recognize a central authority -- unlike the armed wings of Hamas and Islamic Jihad. <br><br> There have been many shootings in the area where the attack took place, not far from the village of Yabed.<\/p>\n","contact":"","link":"http:\/\/interestalert.com\/brand\/siteia.shtml?Story=st\/sn\/06300000aaa069ca.upi&Sys=zzn&Type=News&Filter=Front%20Page&Fid=FRONTPAG","address":"","phone":"","parent_id":0,"mime_type":"text\/plain","summary":"I thought they only hated Israelis?","numcomment":0,"fileurl":"\/uploads\/","filesize":null,"article_url":"\/news\/2003\/07\/68637.php"},"attachments":[],"comments":[]}
