Suspected Militant Killed in Israeli Raid
Blasts shook a building in the West Bank city of Nablus as Israeli troops battled Palestinian militants on Friday. At least one guilty til proven otherwise suspected militant was killed.
"Got a rag over his face?"
"Check."
"Holding an AK?"
"Check."
"Rolling his eyes?"
"Ummm... Check."
"Moshe, I suspect he was a militant!" |
Palestinians opened fire and threw hand grenades as Israeli troops launched an arrest raid, military sources said. The ensuing gunbattle lasted more than two hours. Witnesses said amid the shooting they heard four large blasts that tore into the five-story building. It was unclear whether grenades caused all the blasts.
Bomb factory in the basement?
People in the area said soldiers removed the body of one man from the building. Four residents took the manâs body and laid him nearby. Soldiers ordered all residents out of the building during the siege, and the ones with a grain of sense some left, said Dr. Ziyad Atebeh, who lives nearby.
No name, so just another dead jihadi. Tusk, tusk.
