Palestinians Organize Against Obama

RAMALLAH [MENL] -- Palestinians aligned with the ruling Fatah movement have
begun organizing massive protests against U.S. President Barack Obama.
Palestinian sources said groups aligned with Fatah were mobilizing for
Obama's visit to the West Bank, expected to take place on March 22. They
said the groups wanted to draw tens of thousands of Palestinians to protest
the Obama visit as well as U.S. support for Israel. The United States
provides more than $500 million in annual aid to the Palestinian Authority.
