Hamas planned to smuggle explosives inside toys

A Hamas operative from Nablus was indicted on Wednesday for attempting to smuggle bombs and explosives hidden in stuffed animals in to Israel.

About a month ago the IDF and GSS apprehended the operative, whose job was to smuggle explosive belts from Nablus to operatives in the Jerusalem vicinity. The suspect told his interrogators that he was offered large sums of money in return for his services.

According to the indictment, three weeks prior to his arrest, he received a bomb-belt that was hidden inside a large ‘teddy bear’ doll. The explosive device was supposed to be delivered to a suicide bomber near an East Jerusalem hospital. The plot was foiled after the Nablus operative was arrested on the very day he planned to deliver the belt.

As I said last week, next it'll be toddlers with bomb bunnies.

The Palis have gone over the cliff, no longer members of civilized society.

Sharon should no longer hesitate on the question of Arafat's fate, Colin Powell be damned.

By their fruits you will know them...
Those who love death - hate God (at least the real God & His Son Jesus Christ)
The spiritual inspiration for such deeds...straight from the pit of Hell.....

Hmmm... and I had been wondering what the "religion of peace" had been up to lately. It's actually rather simple:

The Palis are a bunch of wackos with a 14th Century mentality and 20th Century toys. Kill 'em.
