Hamas arrests counterfeiters in Rafah

Palestine Press Agency reports that Hamas caught people counterfeiting US dollars near the Egyptian border. Apparently the counterfeiters dropped some of the bills from a window, causing a stir.

Back in 2008, Hamas was accused itself of counterfeiting dollars and using them to smuggle supplies in from Egypt, from which they took a cut. The Egyptian authorities confiscated over a million dollars of fake currency.

I guess they wanted to keep their monopoly.
