...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.

A local wing of the Paleostinian Islamic Jihad terror group said its members had opened fire on Israeli forces and detonated several bombs against army vehicles.

According to a tally by The Times of Israel, 163 West Bank Paleostinians have been killed since the beginning of the year — most of them during festivities with security forces or while carrying out attacks.



Resistance fighters carried on their shoulders after the failure of the occupation army to arrest or assassinate pursuers, during the storming of Tulkarm camp at dawn today.
I s’pose that’s true, given the dead lad wasn’t a member. But it does seem a tad heartless to cheer about it...
