Police recently nabbed Palestinian at central Israeli city after phosphorus material leaked from his bomb-belt causing him severe burns.

Police officers recently foiled a suicide bombing attack in Israel, it was revealed on Monday. However, a highly unusual chain of events led to his apprehension.

It appears a leak in his bomb-belt caused phosphorus material to reach his skin causing such a severe burn that a hole was literally seen in the stomach of the would-be bomber.

Police forces who were recently on high terror alert in one of the cities of central Israel noticed a Palestinian running “like crazy”. They began a chase and soon detained him. At first they suspected that he ran because of the panic that suddenly gripped him when he noticed the large security deployment. However, it was then revealed that the reason for his detention was a severe burn in his stomach.

The terrorist was rushed to a nearby hospital and for days suffered pain from the material that consumed his skin.

Palestinian terror groups have tried in the past to add chemical substances to bombs. At the site of the triple bombing in Jerusalem some two years ago, remnants of a chemical material were discovered.

However, police stress it is a rare occurrence. Since the start of the Intifada, the terrorists rarely came to use such means.

"The terrorist was rushed to a nearby hospital and for days suffered pain from the material that consumed his skin."

This breaks my heart. But I swallowed a "Band Aid" and feel much better.

And then, after he tried to murder them, the Jews took him to a top-class Jewish hospital and gave him superb Jewish medical care which was billed to the everlastingly patient and generous Jewish taxpayer.

Do you supposed they decided he was allergic to pain killers so they did not give him any?

Forcing him to care and away from his consensual corrosives would be a crime in a libertarian worker's paradise.

Not long enough!

They should have stood him in an empty field and forced him to use his belt....

You are such a weirdo.

. Then pump him for all the intelligence he can provide.

Then pump him full of cyanide.

Give him a skin graft, using the skin of a pig.

It is a classic case of busybody statists thwarting the freewill of someone who up to his arrest was only consensually hurting himself, if we are to accept the shallow mindset as promulgated elsewhere.

I would call you a sick b**** but that would be an insult to sick b****** the world over.

The hole in his stomach was only matched by the hole in his head.

Double tragedy for the Nation of Islam... A homicide bomber lives and hopefully his injuries extend low enough to disappoint the promised 72 virgins.

If you don't like seeing real-world examples of a flakey ideology then don't look.

Weirdo.

Rushed? Rushed? Why?

Because unlike the Palestinians, the Israelis are civilized.

Interesting that the Pali terrorists are now sending in the "B" Team. I guess he'll get a less-than-warm reception when he returns to his family. "NO SOUP FOR YOU!!!"

"I met someone who had a phosphorus grenade go off about a foot from his face. Not a pretty sight...."

That reminds me of Michael Crichton's book "Prey". The female security guard who turned out to be bad had a vicious scar on her face because of a phosphorous grenade in the Balkans or wherever.
