Palestinians Develop Car Bombs
| Wonder if this is what they want to do with their industrial park? |
Palestinian insurgents have been developing components for the production of car bombs. Israeli military sources said the components were developed and produced by Palestinian insurgency groups in the northern West Bank. The sources said the components were meant to enhance car and other bombs for attacks in Israel. Fatah was said to have led the effort to develop car bombs in the West Bank. The sources said Hizbullah provided the funding and expertise for the production of the car bombs.
| And who knows car bombs better than Hezbollah? |
Hizbullah was said to have provided 80 percent of the funding for insurgency cells in the northern West Bank. A senior Fatah operative, identified as Majdi Mohammed Merai, was said to have been responsible for the production of car doors meant to explode when opened. The sources said Merai, killed in a November 2004 military operation in Nablus, manufactured the booby-trapped car doors in August 2004. They said the doors were meant to have been used in an attack in Tel Aviv.
