A Palestinian suicide bomber who may have been no older than ten-years-old was responsible for the deaths of 13 Israeli soldiers today, former Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said late Tuesday.
"This was the briefing that I took from one of the central commanders (in the West Bank)," Netanyahu told Fox News Channels "Hannity & Colmes."
"I don't know, frankly - because I inquired as well - whether it was a 10-year-old, a fourteen-year-old, or a thirteen-year-old," he said. "It was a youngster, a Palestinian youngster strapped with explosives (who was) dispatched forward. And yes, that's what caused the casualties."
The Israeli soldiers were killed as they were withdrawing from Palestinian occupied territories at the request of the U.S.
Netanyahu said he wouldn't be surprised if ten-year-old Palestinians were being recruited as suicide bombers, "since Yassir Arafat has suicide kindergarten camps with three-year-olds."

Eventually Israelis will have no choice but to shoot on sight.

That's the rub. The media will paint them as murderous jews.

He may have been an 'out of work' Easter Bunny too, Bibi.
Starting to sound more and more like cover and justification for when the taped video starts rolling in of 'dead children' laying in the streets of these 'military zones'.

What does "dispatched forward" mean? Does it mean he was pushed? What?

Hey, if you spank a kid in this country, the CPS will take him away. If you teach him to strap on a bomb and kill people, he is a hero, over there. I wonder where the press stands on this?

The Israelis can use this as evidence as to why they have to shoot on sight.
I think this preteen's actions have caused more deaths for his "side" then his handlers bargained for.
Let's see if this story gets legs, if it does the world will look at the Israelis battle in a new light.
