Islamic Jihad threatens suicide attacks | |
2006-05-15 | |
GAZA CITY - The radical Palestinian group Islamic Jihad vowed on Monday to carry out further suicide attacks to avenge the killing of six Palestinians, including two of its leaders, by Israeli troops.
“We confirm to the criminal enemy that we will continue our martyrdom operations and nobody can stop the martyrs,” it added. “We will succeed in facing up to the agression until we are victorious.” The Abu Rish Brigades and Al Aqsa Martyrs Brigades, two armed offshoots of the former ruling Fatah party, said they had fired rockets from the Gaza Strip into Israel to protest against Sunday’s killings in the West Bank. An Israeli army spokesman said three rockets exploded overnight but that there were no reports of any damage or casualties. Five Palestinians, including the two Jihad leaders were shot dead by Israeli troops during clashes in the northern West Bank town of Qabatiya on Sunday. A security guard outside the local Palestinian Authority intelligence headquarters in the nearby city of Jenin was also shot dead by Israeli troops. Among the dead in Qabatiya was Elias Al Ashkar, a leader of Jihad’s armed wing and who Israel held responsible for the last eight suicide bombings. | |

#5 These fuckheads boasted about having 60 "martyrs" ready for action last month, so all they are doing in repeating the same threats. Meanwhile, the Israelis are making it harder and harder for them by taking out the support networks and completing the separation barrier. I expect Jihad to announce a cease-fire when it can no longer penetrate Israeli security. This is what Hamas did, even though those fuckwits are still trying to smuggle in boomers via the Sinai (with no success, thus far). |
