| 2 Palestinian girls nabbed on way to suicide attack |
| 2004-06-16 |
| Two 15-year-old girls were arrested overnight Wednesday in the West Bank city of Nablus for allegedly planning to carry out a suicide attack together with their fathers, Army Radio reported. According to the report, the four were recruited by an Al-Aksa activist. IDF sources told the radio that the same activist recruited Husam Abdu, 16, of Nablus to carry out a suicide bombing at the Huwara checkpoint south of the West Bank city. The two teenage girls were identified as members of the Fatah organization, Majda Kohon and Assil al-Hindi. They were arrested in Nablus and taken into custody along with their fathers. Israel radio reported that after questioning it transpired that one of the girls had recruited the other to carry out a suicide bombing attack. A report on the Ma’ariv quoted the mother of one of the girls as saying she believed her daughter, whom she described as disciplined and did not leave the house much, to be completely innocent. Also Wednesday, a Palestinian from the Islamic Jihad organization was shot and killed by members of a Border Police undercover unit in Jenin during a sweep for Palestinians wanted for questioning by the security forces. According to Army Radio, Majed al-Sa’adi, 25, was at the time inside a restaurant in Jenin. Military sources said al-Sa’adi tried to flee despite being surrounded and was shot when he failed to heed repeated calls to stop. The sources said the Border Police troops came under fire from several points during the course of the mission. There were no casualties or damage and the soldiers returned fire. Five other fugitives were arrested in Jenin by members of the undercover unit and another nine were captured during sweeps on nearby villages. The incident happened during similar operation in various West Bank locations in which a total of 28 suspected terrorists and Palestinians wanted for questioning were detained. The 12 other Palestinians, including Hamas militants, were captured during sweeps in Dir Amar, El-Bireh and A-Ram near Ramallah, as well as in Hebron. |

| #17 This just goes to show that the Paleos are getting to the bottom of the barrel for boomers. The adults are largely done, the sick Hep and other disease carriers are done. They tried kids. They are on their way to bottom out. Between disengagement and walls, the Israelis will be pretty secure. At least much better than before. The Paleos will have nothing to do soon except sit and rot in ther State, or make war on each other. They have dipped in the well of world sympathy and even that is running dry. Some people will never get it. |

| #12 The family the "booms" together...well you know the rest of the old saying. It mustbe some sort of Paleo/father-daughter thing. Maybe it's the Paleo version of a soccer dad. |

| #10 Israel could empty a their towns of the real humans and let the Paleos have at it. They could just blow themselves up to their heart's content! See also, "Rock Ridge". |

| #9 I'm with ya' jules187. And I was echoing your sentiments (in #1) exactly: Islamic "Dad of the Year": "Oh my sweet, beloved daughter, your virtue I will protect at all costs . . . and now--I will help you kill yourself." |

| #8 Ex-lib--you're right. I just see some irony in their "thinking"-they are simultaneously valiant protectors of women and family members murdering female kin. Always enjoy your comments, though. |

| #7 hey...I could take a couple of 15-year old girls to paradise (wink wink, nudge nudge) |

| #6 Too bad there isn't the technology to holograph or robotize human look-alikes. Israel could empty a their towns of the real humans and let the Paleos have at it. They could just blow themselves up to their heart's content! And there'd be less of them to deal with. (Sometimes fantasy is helpful when confronted by the most inexcusable acts.) jules187: From the Palestinian's (very stupid) thinking constructs, they are protecting their daughter's "virtue"--they're getting their daughters to Islam-ick paradise before they girls have a chance to engage their God-given endowments--or, as they think of it--destroy themselves with Arab men (hey--maybe they're on to something there . . . .). Anyway, women aren't worth much in their estimation, so it serves their purpose to use them in an attempt to "humiliate" more men into suicide bombings: "See, Abu! Even fifteen-old-girls are doing this, and you're not. Oh, the shame . . . " |

| #1 Ah Islam, where fathers "protect" their daughters' virtue, but facilitate their daughers' deaths...that culture has surely cornered the market on fatherly care. |
