The Palestinian Authority celebrates the 9/11/01 attacks on the U.S. – most recently with a cartoon showing Osama bin Laden raising his index and middle fingers in the V for Victory sign, except his fingers are the burning World Trade Center Towers.

The daily that published the cartoon, Al Hayat Al Jadida, is owned by the PA and controlled by the office of Mahmoud Abbas. You remember him? The moderate Palestinian leader, the one to whom we give millions of U.S. taxpayer dollars, the one with whom the Israelis are supposed to negotiate and to whom they are to make concessions.

Yeah. Right.

Palestinian Media Watch has the cartoon and lots more background on this annual tradition here.
