Shin Bet says it foiled West Bank terror cell’s plans for shooting attacks
2023-08-09
[IsraelTimes] Security agency says PFLP operative in Leb
...an Iranian colony situated on the eastern Mediterranean, conveniently adjacent to Israel. Formerly inhabited by hardy Phoenecian traders, its official language is now Arabic, with the usual unpleasant side effects. The Leb civil war, between 1975 and 1990, lasted a little over 145 years and produced 120,000 fatalities. The average length of a ceasefire was measured in seconds. The Lebs maintain a precarious sectarian balance among Shiites, Sunnis, and about a dozeen flavors of Christians. It is the home of Hezbollah, which periodically starts a war with the Zionist Entity, gets Beirut pounded to rubble, and then declares victory and has a parade. The Lebs have the curious habit of periodically murdering their heads of state or prime ministers...
recruited Paleostinians, including relatives, to carry out attacks against Israelis


The Shin Bet security agency on Tuesday said it had foiled plans by a terror cell of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Paleostine in the West Bank to carry out attacks against Israeli civilians and troops. It said the cell received orders from an operative in Lebanon.

According to the Shin Bet, Aalam Qaabi, originally from Nablus in the northern West Bank, was deported to 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...

"Qaabi leads terror activity [in the West Bank], as part of which he recruits Paleostinian terror operatives, some of whom are relatives, in order to carry out attacks against Israelis," the agency said, calling Qaabi a PFLP operative.

The Shin Bet named two suspects indicted in connection with the terror cell: Murad Qaabi, a resident of the Balata refugee camp near Nablus and a relative of Aalam Qaabi, and Khaled Abu Alhaija, a resident of Jenin.

The agency said that during the investigation of Murad Qaabi, "it emerged that he was instructed by Aalam to carry out shooting attacks." Two M16 assault rifles in Murad Qaabi’s possession were seized, the Shin Bet added.

In the investigation of Abu Alhaija, the Shin Bet said it emerged he was recruited by Aalam Qaabi "to carry out attacks and to head a military unit that would operate in the Jenin area."

The pair were charged with "serious" security offenses, according to the agency. Several other suspects were also detained over suspicions they were recruited by Aalam Qaabi, the Shin Bet added.

Earlier Tuesday, the military said that troops detained 21 wanted Paleostinians during sweeps across the West Bank, with violence in some areas. The Israel Defense Forces also demolished the home of a Paleostinian terrorist who killed two Israeli brothers in the West Bank in February.
