| [Ynet] Paleostinian teenagers stopped with knives and pipe bombs at Jalame checkpoint; attempted use of pipe bombs in an attack is a significant development in the strategy being used by these lone wolf attackers. Paleostinian Security Forces thwarted a bombing attempt at the Jalame checkpoint in Jenin on Tuesday morning. Paleostinian sources told Ynet that two teenagers were caught in possession of pipe bombs and knives. The two teenagers were caught by Paleostinian Security Forces stationed on the Paleostinian side of the checkpoint moments before they were to enter Israel, the Paleostinian sources told Ynet. The teenagers, both 15, planned to carry out a two stage attack - first detonating the pipe bombs, then knifing the survivors. The two, from the town of Yamun next to Jenin, are related, and study at the same school. Throughout the recent escalation in violence, the Paleostinian Security Forces have stopped at least three attacks at the Jalame checkpoint. The Paleostinian forces were deployed at the checkpoint after four attempted stabbings by teenage Paleostinians from the town of Qabatiya, also next to Jenin. Israeli forces neutralized the attackers each time. This attempted pipe kaboom is a worrying development. The fact that the Paleostinian Security Forces were able to stop this attack proves that the Paleostinian Authority is still continuing to stop attacks against Israeli targets, and that the security cooperation between Israel and the PA is still strong, despite the calls by many within the PA to stop all security cooperation with Israel. The attempts come at the heels of a general Paleostinian teachers' strike, which left many of the schools in the West Bank closed, and left students with nothing to do. The worry is that these kids will keep themselves busy by going on social media and watching TV - of which many of the pages and stations are affiliated with 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... - and that the number of attacks will increase. |
