Mustache warriors: only in the MidEast

Mustache War -Khaled Abu Toameh

Hamas has resumed its policy of shaving mustaches of political opponents to humiliate them, Fatah officials said.

Hamas resorted to this form of punishment in the past after arresting senior Fatah representatives in the Gaza Strip, the officials said.

Hamas, for its part, accused the Palestinian Authority security forces of shaving the beards of detained Hamas officials in the West Bank.
