Islamic Jihad member waxed
An Israeli soldier and a Palestinian gunman were killed in a West Bank shootout yesterday, the latest deadly skirmish between troops scouring the territory and militants fighting Israeli reoccupation. The shootout erupted in the northern village of Saida, close to Tulkarem, as the army searched for wanted Palestinians, 15 of whom were netted in raids across the West Bank. The Palestinian gunman, Rami Said Al Ashakar, was identified as a wanted member of the group Islamic Jihad.He will be missed. By him Mom. Maybe. In other clashes in the West Bank, a wanted member of the Al Aqsa Martyrs Brigades was shot and injured, then arrested in a raid on Qalqilya by an undercover Israeli army unit, Palestinian officials said. Five other people were injured in a shooting that erupted during the raid, officials said. "You'll never take me alive, coppers! Ow! Ow! Hey! That's my Mom, dammit!"
