They may not agree on everything , but three factions of the Al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigade have agreed on their pick in the upcoming presidential election. The odds-on favrorite, so far, is Hillary Clinton. The endorsement follows a 'no' vote by the junior senator from New York on the National Defense Authorization Act. The Democratic refusal to provide U.S. service men and women with badly needed funding is seen by some political observers as a way to pressure the administration into setting a timetable for an American troop withdrawal. Whatever the reason their approval, Abu Hamed leader of the Gaza Strip Brigade is praising Mrs. Clinton saying,"Her popularity shows that the resistance is winning, We just hope the she will go until the end and change the American Policy." In the last five years Al-Aqsa has been responsable for homicide bombings that have killed one-hundred-twenty-nine Israeli civilians. It is also closely aligned with the terrorist organization Hamas.
