Senior Fatah activist shot dead as PFLP fighters attack Israeli patrol
Al Bawaba, the Middle East Gateway ^ | December 25 2004

Israeli troops killed senior Al-Aqsa Martyrs' Brigades fighter, Taher Abu Kamal, early on Saturday in the Jenin refugee camp in the West Bank. Abu Kamal had replaced Mahmoud Abu Khalifa, who was assassinated by Israeli forces in September.

Meanwhile, the PFLP military wing Saturday claimed responsibility for ambushing an Israeli foot patrol near the settlement of "Ganei Tal" to the south of the Gaza Strip. It noted that fighters of the Abu Ali Mustafa Brigades shot and inflicted casualties in lines of the enemy soldiers at midnight Friday.

I love hearing that line!

It gives me the opportunity to ask "Do you believe terrorists are all braver than you, because you'd obviously back down?"

I never could figure out their line of reasoning. How does killing these scum somehow magically produce more of them? Typical thinking from the communists - Oh, I mean the left.

Damn, ya gotta love those Reuters and BBC reporters in Saudi, Teheran and Damascus, and I don't care how much the IDF has to pay them. As the senior Fatah guys go, the younger and less experienced ones are even easier. Kamal is gone!! Thanks Reuters' reorters! Thanks IDF "bureau chiefs!"

"The libs keep telling us we're just making more terrorists. Doesn't look that way to me."

"They don't need an excuse for their hatred, and it is wrong to blame America for the anger and evil of the killers ... We don't create terrorists by fighting back, we defeat the terrorists by fighting back." - American President George Bush.

Same goes for Israel.

Hmm. The PFLP used to be a familiar of the Syrian gov't.

RE: "Abu Kamal had replaced Mahmoud Abu Khalifa, who was assassinated by Israeli forces in September"


Note to the newspaper hack who wrote this piece-- You can't "assassinate" a terrorist pig. What the IDF did in both cases was an act of self-defense and self-preservation, and it never fails to astound me how completely the media missed the boat when reporting these cases.

Thanks for the ping on this one, Salem.
Keep up the good work, IDF, and God bless Israel and America.
