Any Palestinian who publicly criticizes Arafat can be imprisoned or even executed. A case in point: in early March 2002, BBC reported the execution of two Palestinians who had been accused by the PA of collaboration. When the BBC crew met with the families of the two victims, they discovered that both had a history of opposition to Arafat and that both had openly criticized Arafat, about him keeping the money the Europeans give him. The family said, that dozens of Palestinians are killed because Arafat calls them collaborators with Israel, where infact, they were people who were critical of Arafat's policies, especially using children as human shields for the media. The BBC correspondent told a human watch group that these were dissidents, not collaborators, but BBC World Service chose not to report the story.
