IDF kills Metzer attack terrorist
By ARIEH O'SULLIVAN
Special Forces tracked down and killed Saturday the terrorist who sneaked into a kibbutz last November and gunned down five people including a mother and her two sons as she read them a bedtime story.
Security forces have been on the trail of Sirhan Sirhan, a Fatah member, ever since he was able to escape from the attack. They finally caught up with him Saturday afternoon in the Tulkarum refugee camp.
A unit from the Border Police undercover unit ambushed him as he road in a vehicle with two armed accomplices. Sirhan, 20, was killed outright before he could react, but the two others were able to draw their weapons, open fire and flee, military sources said.
Sirhan had been high on the wanted list since the attack on November 10 on Kibbutz Metzer in central Israel. At the time, Sirhan belonged to Fatah's Aksa Martyrs Brigade which proudly took responsibility for the attack. But in the interim year, security sources said, Sirhan switched allegiances to the more radical Islamic Jihad.
The ambush of the terrorist was not related to the suicide bombing in Haifa.
Revital Ohayon and her sons, Matan, five, and Noam, four, and Tirza Damari and Yitzhak Dori were murdered in the Metzer attack.
Meanwhile heavy exchanges of gunfire took place Saturday afternoon between IDF troops and armed Palestinians in the West Bank town of Jenin. Palestinian sources said that the Israeli army has bolstered its presence at all points in the city.

Sorry but not enough payback since he killed five that we know of. I hope the family house has been already razed.

Thank you for reminding everyone that the Palestinians have a history of killing Americans as well. They'd love to kill many more. Remember the dancing in the street on 9/11? I'll never forget it.

Let's hope he had a second or two to realize his death was nigh, and his death rattles lasted long enough for him to see the Gates of Hell swinging open to welcome him home.
Pali terrorist Spawn of Hell.
