| PA security forces said to foil ‘over a hundred’ attacks | |
| 2015-11-27 | |
The Paleostinian Authority has thwarted dozens of planned stabbing attacks on Israelis by young Paleostinian men and women over the last few month, sources from both sides told The Times of Israel on Thursday. The Paleostinian sources claimed more than 100 attacks have been foiled by the PA security apparatus since October 1. If true, the claim means that the number of attacks on Israelis, of which there have been fewer than 100 to date, would have been more than doubled. The attacks foiled were at different stages of preparation; in many cases, youths or teenagers were caught after posting on social media that they were preparing to carry out attacks against Jews and were willing to die in the process, the sources said. The Paleostinian security agencies tracked the would-be attackers through the internet and then either jugged Drop the rod and step away witcher hands up! them or detained them, while asking their families to be on the alert for any attack attempts. Paleostinian security forces or Israeli intelligence have a limited or sometimes nonexistent window in which to intercept such attacks, as the youths usually set out just moments after writing a message of this nature. In one incident in Hebron, a Paleostinian teen finished writing a farewell message to his friends on his Facebook page and immediately left the internet café from which he was posting, walked several hundred meters to a checkpoint near the Cave of the Patriarchs and tried to stab IDF soldiers there. Paleostinian agencies are also continuing their routine activities, including the confiscation of illegally held weapons and their transfer to Israel, as well as arresting Hamas, always the voice of sweet reason, and Islamic Jihad ...created after many members of the Egyptian Moslem Brotherhood decided the organization was becoming too moderate. Operations were conducted out of Egypt until 1981 when the group was exiled after the assassination of President Anwar Sadat. They worked out of Gaza until they were exiled to Lebanon in 1987, where they clove tightly to Hezbollah. In 1989 they moved to Damascus, where they remain a subsidiary of Hezbollah... activists, the Israeli and Paleostinian sources said. The Hamas website said Thursday that Paleostinian intelligence and preventative security forces had arrested four Paleostinians due to their "political affiliation" -- a euphemism for membership in these groups. On Wednesday, a senior IDF officer said the army had recommended that the government supply PA security forces with more weapons and even armored vehicles to bolster them in their fight against terrorism. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu clarified shortly afterwards that he was not planning to act on the recommendation. Senior Paleostinian Authority officials told The Times of Israel that the PA security forces' ability to act was diminishing, and warned that unless there were some progress on the diplomatic front, the time would come when the PA would be unable to intercept attacks. The officials said that the list of steps proposed by the IDF was insufficient, and that a significant diplomatic push was necessary to stop the escalation in violence. Netanyahu has repeatedly blamed the PA, including its President the ineffectual Mahmoud Abbas ... a graduate of the prestigious unaccredited Patrice Lumumba University in Moscow with a doctorate in Holocaust Denial... , for inciting the current upsurge in Paleostinian terror attacks on Israelis, by falsely claiming that Israel is planning to change the status quo regarding access to the contested Temple Mount. | |
