| Israel kills two Hamas men, find explosive belts |
| 2002-12-30 |
| Undercover Israeli security forces shot dead two Hamas activists in the West Bank city of Jenin on Monday afternoon, one a senior member of the organization. Two explosives belts were found in the men's car, leading officials to believe that they were on their way to hand them over to suicide bombers. Senior members being above doing it themselves The two, Shaman Subouh, 29, and Mustafa Kash, 26, had been travelling between the villages of Wadi Burkin and El-Yamou when the attack took place. Both men were from Burkin, where, two months ago, the IDF blew up Subouh's home. Subouh was the local head of the organization and had recently been attempting to bring the remnants of Jenin's Hamas network in under his leadership. He had become an accomplished bomb-maker who was on Israel's wanted list. Promotion seems to bring about unwanted attention Palestinian security officials said the bodies of the two men were riddled by bullets shot and accused Israel of killing them in a targeted attack. Their bodies were taken to a Jenin hospital. Little late for a hospital, isn't it? |

| #4 And of course, the IDF would *never* record these narking-outs for later use against the Fatah boyos... |

| #2 tu3031 makes a very good observation and asks a thought-provoking question. Here's a crazy idea: could it be Arafat's Fatah feeding the IDF info? It weakens their rivals without breaking the illusion Arab unity and Paleo victimhood. I don't seem to recall any Fatah thugs getting zapped by the IDF recently... mostly just Hamas and Islamic Jihad... I know, it's a pretty crazy idea! |

| #1 Is it me or does it look like the Israelis have been on a bit of a roll lately taking these a**holes out? Wonder who's feeding them the info? |
