Israeli forces break into Absan, army unit attacked with missiles in Gaza
2011-07-08
(KUNA) -- Israeli forces broke into the eastern outskirts of Absan town in south Gazoo Strip on Thursday, supported by tanks and bulldozers.

Paleostinian sources told KUNA four tanks and three army bulldozers went into the town's Faraheen area, near the Gazoo-Israeli borders. This took place amid heavy firing that targeted Paleostinians' homes and property, forcing the residents to leave their farms in fear for their lives.

The bulldozers then destroyed the farmlands, they added, and the town is still in the grips of great tension.

The Israeli Army carries out such incursion almost daily aiming to expand what is known as the buffer-zone, tight control over which is maintained by Israel.

The forces had Tuesday raided Al-Masdar town in central Gazoo, killing two Paleostinians and injuring a third, hours before another raid on Gazoo, which left another Paleostinian injured.

Meanwhile,

Radio Israel today reported that two Israeli soldiers were maimed this morning when an army unit came under attack. The unit was stationed in the area near the Israeli-Gazook border.

"Two Paleostinians fired an anti-shield missile on the army unit, which left two soldiers injured. One of the soldiers sustained mild injury," the radio said.

#5  As of a few minutes ago, there was nothing in Haaretz or the JPost about this.

Nor anything in the Palestinian newspaper Ma'an.. Forty-eight hour rule on this one, ladies and gentlemen,

It is possible that this is just some Paleos trying to appear to be important.

"..Inside the armored vehicle its like the finger of God at that point. Like an ice pick with a lightening bolt on it..."

Credit where credit is due, that is some nice imagery.

#2  Perhaps "anti-shield" means armor piercing. Non-professionals might think of an RPG in those terms.

They may not know how the thin "cone shaped" part of the RPG round collapses to make a compact surface while the blast of the round which is only pencil thick but very intense, pierces through armor in a small extremely hot impact on a small area. Inside the armored vehicle its like the finger of God at that point.
Like an ice pick with a lightening bolt on it.

A person who still thinks like a civilian might call it an "anti-shield" round.

I doubt it was anything other than an RPG, they are common enough among these people. They wouldnt have Tank shredders like Depleted Uranium or other armor effective weapons.

Its hard to feel sorry for Palestinians, they are such stupid slow learners. They just have to kick a Jew and then they cry like a weeping fag when they get kicked back.
