Undercover IDF soldiers stormed a Tulkarm caf and gunned down a prominent Fatah militant Monday evening, Palestinians witnesses said.
Residents of the northern West Bank city said Mahmoud Aved al-Al, an al-Aksa Martyrs Brigades operative from the Gaza Strip, was killed. The witnesses said a 12 year-old boy was critically wounded, and a second Fatah militant was moderately wounded, in the raid.
IDF sources confirmed that units entered Tulkarm and surrounded the establishment after receiving intelligence that the fugitive - who they say was in the midst of planning a suicide attack - was sitting inside.
The sources said troops called on the fugitive to surrender several times. When he tried to flee, the soldiers shot him dead.
No soldiers were wounded in the action, the IDF said.
Good to know that the IDF is still capabable as long as the politicians just keep off their back.
Ping!
Hope they used silenced weapons.
...after receiving intelligence that the fugitive - who they say was in the midst of planning a suicide attack...
What do you bet some 12-year old was getting an earful about how he could meet up with a bunch of virgins?
Was the kid there for his morning Espresso?
"...who they say was in the midst of planning a suicide attack..."
One way of reducing suicide attacks is to make it known to would-be attackers that their remains will be covered with bacon drippings and that their private parts will be removed and burried separately. Sorry Moh, no 72 virgins for you.
While the IDF was in the cafe they confiscated all the copies of the New York Times and several Windham Hill CDs.
:^)
PWNED!
Reminds me of that age old question - if you shoot a mime, do you need a silencer?
Outstanding! I applaud the IDF for their quick and decisive action.
This brings a whole new meaning to the concept of "assisted suicide"...

Retribution on the family is also helpful. Destroying their homes worked fairly well.
Nice.
LOL! In this case, I'm for it!
BUMP!
Just what are the duties of a cafe-boy in the PA territories?
Let's not punish the innocent.
That was from Steven Wright......funny guy....
He also said "One day I put a blank tape on in my stereo system. I turned the volume up all the way. You couldn't hear anything....just silence. Then the phone rang. I picked it up and said hello. Nothing. I said hello again. Still nothing. Then I realized it was the mime upstairs complaining about the noise.
Saddly, you can probably count "the innocent" on a couple fingers.
