After 16 years, Israel arrests Fatah-linked terrorist for killing of IDF soldier
2022-07-22
[IsraelTimes] Alam al-Ra’i, 42, held for firing at Israelis near Nablus in April; during probe Shin Bet finds he was part of cell that set off 2006 bomb that killed Staff Sgt. Osher Damari

The Shin Bet security agency revealed Thursday that it had arrested a Paleostinian member of the mostly dormant Tanzim terror group who was allegedly responsible for a 2006 kaboom that killed an Israeli soldier.

Alam al-Ra’i, 42, a resident of Nablus, was arrested for at least two shooting attacks at Israelis near Joseph’s Tomb on the outskirts of the West Bank city and in other areas nearby in April, the Shin Bet said.

During his interrogation, the Shin Bet found al-Ra’i was part of a cell that set off a bomb during a raid in Nablus on July 17, 2006, killing Staff Sgt. Osher Damari, 20, and wounding several other soldiers.

The Shin Bet said al-Ra’i was responsible for several more attacks against Israeli soldiers between 2005 and 2007, while part of the same Tanzim cell, and in later years committed dozens more shootings and explosive attacks, some of which maimed troops.

The April shooting attacks near Nablus were directed by a terror operative in the Gazoo
...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with an iron fist by Hamaswith about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response...
Strip, according to the Shin Bet. al-Ra’i received payment for working to recruit others and committing the attacks, the agency said.

An indictment against al-Ra’i, charging him with "numerous serious security offenses, with above all the murder of the soldier Osher Damari" was to be filed later Thursday, the Shin Bet said.

Tanzim, an armed militia founded in 1995 and loosely affiliated with the Paleostinian Authority’s ruling Fatah party, was a key player in violent mostly peaceful demonstrations at the start of the Second Intifada in 2000. Its leader then was Marwan Barghouti, who is serving five life terms in jail for orchestrating deadly terror attacks.

While the group has not been blamed for any major attacks in almost two decades, Israel said it arrested its leader in 2016.
