Innocent Palestinian™ (firebomb thrower) killed by IDF in Nablus
2004-01-06
JPost Reg Req’d
A Palestinian teenager was killed and another wounded by IDF gunfire in Nablus on Monday evening. The IDF Spokesman said soldiers shot a Palestinian who threw a firebomb at troops deployed in the Ein Beit Ilma refugee camp in the city.
an innocent teen struck down in the prime of life... nahhhhhh
Earlier in the day shots were fired at IDF soldiers deployed near Bir Zeit north of Ramallah. In the early morning, security forces arrested six Palestinian fugitives, four affiliated with the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine and one with the Tanzim in raids in Kalkilya, Abu Dis and Dura south of Hebron.
let’s see, 6 plus four plus....carry the one....11? nice haul
Binyamin regional police also arrested a Palestinian policeman from Budrus who allegedly hosted left-wing activists at his home and helped plan demonstrations near the security fence over the past week. He is suspected of throwing rocks at security forces.
ISM enabler, huh?
Palestinians detonated a mine nearby a border police patrol in the Samarian village of Sallem Monday evening. No casualties or damage were reported. Near Kerem Shalom in the south Gaza Strip not far from the Palestinian Dahaniya airport, security forces blew up one of two tunnels discovered on Sunday. Soldiers and Border Police placed charges in the six meter deep tunnel shaft, the entrance to the tunnel was discovered inside an abandonned building. Equipment found in the tunnel included electronic devices, an intercom and spades. The second tunnel, nine meters deep was located underneath a road used by soldiers in the area and where officials believe terrorists planned to pack it with explosives and detonate them underneath a convoy of IDF vehicles.
27’ deep? They’d need a boatload of ’splosives to cause any damage...sounds like Wile E Coyote planning dept
So far this year security forces have uncovered 40 tunnels in the Gaza Strip located mainly in the Rafah area. Elsewhere in the Gaza Strip, shots were fired a number of times at an IDF post on the Karni Netzarim road. An anti tank rocket and shots were fired at an IDF post near Rafah. A mortar shell was fired at an Israeli community in the north Gaza Strip. In all incidents no one was wounded and no damage reported.
Typical Paleo shoot and run..

Maybe the IDF should drop some runway bombs along the route of suspected tunneling activity.
