Israelis nab senior Hamas leader

[oberliner]

Jerusalem (CNN) -- Israeli forces have arrested a senior Hamas operative they say is responsible for killing more than 70 Israelis in various terrorist attacks, the Israel Defense Forces said Sunday.

Maher U'dda, who had been wanted since the end of the 1990s, was arrested Saturday night in a joint operation by Israeli police and security forces in Ramallah, on the West Bank, the IDF said.

"Pinpoint intelligence information" from the Israel Security Agency led to the arrest, they said.

U'dda, who is in his early 40s, was one of the founders of Hamas in Ramallah and lives in a village northeast of the city, the IDF said.

1. There have been reports of Hamas blaming the Palestinian Authority for helping the Israelis in this

Must be the 26 Mossad agents that were in Dubai. They sure do get around.

Anything that hurts Hamas helps peace.
