YNET NEWS: "5 KILLED IN HADERA BLAST"
SNIPPET: "Terror returns to Israels cities: Suicide bomber strikes in market in Hadera, north of Tel Aviv and scene of several previous attacks."
ARTICLE SNIPPET #2: "Senior Islamic Jihad figure Abu al-Muamen told Ynet the attack came in response to the killing of the groups West Bank terror leader Louie Saadi earlier this week. He said the attack was only an initial response and added his group and other Palestinian organizations are expected to respond with more attacks. However, al-Muamen refused to officially claim responsibility for the attack.
Earlier, Palestinian sources told Ynet the attack was likely the work of Islamic Jihad and came in response to the killing of Saadi. However, the sources said another organization may have cooperated with the Islamic Jihad in carrying out the attack.
The Islamic Jihad vowed to shake up Israel in retaliation for Saadis killing.

Russian 'advisors' arrive in Gaza; train security
forces
Synoeca ^
Posted on 10/26/2005 10:58:09 AM PDT by Alex Marko
10/26/2005 - Russian military officers have arrived in the Gaza strip to
train security forces in hopes of establishing law and order in the
anarchic coastal region.
According to both Russian and Palestinian officials, military advisors
have crossed over the border of Gaza and Egypt to assess the
requirements and assistance needed for security forces and to provide
the Palestinian Authority ammunition and light arms. Initially, the
Russian advisors will focus operations in the Gaza Strip and then move
on to the West Bank.
Russian Defence Minister Sergei Ivanov confirmed the reports during a
press conference in Paris stating that "Russian Foreign Ministry and
Defence Ministry officials arrived in the Palestinian Territories to assist
in training the security forces, whose capabilities were undermined
during the Intifada". Earlier this year, Russia offered the Palestinian
Authority two upgraded Mi-17 medium transport helicopters and 50
ex-Russian armed forces BRDM-2 4 x 4 armoured scout vehicles which
was denied by the Israeli government. Tel Aviv was surprised to learn
of the entry of the Russians into Gaza without the proper diplomatic
channels used to convey their arrival plans.
Alongside the Russians in Gaza are the Egyptian intelligence officers
trying to avert a possible confrontation between the Palestinian
Authority, Hamas and Hizbollah. Increased Russian participation in the
region has worried the Israelis, who also note that Russia has
recently agreed to sell sophisticated rockets and anti-aircraft systems
to Syria.
Doesn't this give you the warm fuzzies?

N.J. Hospitals Prepare For Possible Bird Flu Outbreak
UPDATED: 2:14 pm EDT October 26, 2005
NEWARK, N.J. -- New Jersey hospitals are making plans to handle an influx of patients in case deadly bird flu reaches the state, but experts say no effort may be sufficient in case of an outbreak.
"We'll definitely have problems. Right now, we're at capacity and winter season is a busy time anyway," David Seaberg, a spokesman for the American College of Emergency Physicians, told The Star-Ledger of Newark in Wednesday's editions.
If emergency rooms become filled, some hospitals plan to evaluate patients in courtyards and parking decks, the newspaper reported. Hospitals are also stockpiling an antiviral drug, Tamiflu.
The hospitals must be ready to isolate patients suspected of having the disease, and be ready with extra staff, beds and supplies, Ron Czajkowski, spokesman for the New Jersey Hospital Association, said Wednesday.
The preparations come as the dangerous H5N1 strain appears to be moving west from Asia. Authorities said Wednesday that the bird flu was found in another European nation, Croatia, and China announced that a bird flu outbreak has killed 545 chickens and ducks in a village in central China -- the country's third case of the disease in two weeks.
The strain has devastated poultry populations in Asia and killed 62 people, although it is not easily spread to people. Scientists fear it will mutate into a flu that is both contagious and deadly to people and which would quickly spread around the globe through international travel.
Human-to-human transmission would pose many challenges for hospitals, and not just from those who were sickened.
"You will also have the 'worried well,' who think they have it but are perfectly healthy," Patricia Lafaro, director of infection control for Somerset Medical Center in Somerville, told The Star-Ledger.
New Jersey's 86 acute-care hospitals can apply for state grants to test flu pandemic readiness.
That includes "surge capacity," the ability to quickly accommodate more patients, which requires space, staff and equipment.
"There is a particular problem with pandemic flu because this type of illness requires intensive care beds and mechanical ventilation, and those resources in hospitals are extremely tight," Richard Waldhorn, a professor of medicine at Georgetown University told the newspaper.
Among the facilities seeking grants is Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital in New Brunswick.
"We have almost 600 patients in the hospital today. We would be able to increase that number by another 300 to 400 if we are experiencing surge," said the hospital's president and CEO, Clifton Lacy, a former state health commissioner.
The hospital has an 18,000-foot courtyard where patients could be placed, while University Hospital in Newark would deploy tents if it ran out of emergency space.
