Fatah calls for attacks on US, Zionist targets
By MARGOT DUDKEVITCH AND LAMIA LAHOUD

Groups affiliated with Palestinian Authority Chairman Yasser Arafat's
Fatah movement yesterday called upon all Palestinian organizations,
including the Islamic movements, to attack Zionist and American targets
everywhere in response to US efforts "to remove the legitimate leadership
of the Palestinian people." 
Fatah's military wing, al-Aksa Martyrs Brigades, issued a statement
yesterday in which it threatened "to strike at Zionist and American
interests and installations" in Israel and throughout the world if the
United States maintains its opposition to Arafat. 
The statement warned US President George W. Bush that it will return to
the type of fedayeen operations that prevailed in 1970s if what they
called the conspiracy against Arafat continued. 
The statement called for boycotting US Secretary of State Colin Powell
and said there is a conspiracy to harm the Palestinian leadership. 
Arafat later issued a statement distancing himself from the Fatah
statement, saying it was not made in his name.
