GAZA, Dec. 21 (Xinhuanet) -- The radical Palestinian Islamic Jihad movement accused on Tuesday the US Pentagon of shutting down its websites on the Internet.

   The movement's media office condemned the American action, saying "several similar actions were pursued against the movement's websites as to keep the Palestinian voice silent."

   Meanwhile, a Ukrainian company that hosts the movement's websites had apologized in a message for not being able to host the movement's websites, that contains news and photos supporting the Palestinian resistance.

   The company said the move was taken as a direct request from the Pentagon.

   The websites that were shut down are: www.qudsnews.net, www.sarayaalguds.org, www.shikaki.net, www.rabdullah.net.  Enditem
