Palestinian "Police" Killed in Gaza War Were Trained Terrorists
Jerusalem Center for Public Affairs ^ | September 14, 2009 | Jonathan Halevi

After international human rights organizations accused Israel of killing innocent Palestinian "traffic policemen" during the Gaza operation, a detailed investigation shows that a decisive majority of the Palestinian "policemen" were members of the military wings of the Palestinian terror organizations and fighters who had undergone military training.

Among the 343 members of the Palestinian security forces who were killed, 286 have been identified as terror organization members (83 percent). Another 27 fighters belonging to units undergoing infantry training raises this total to 313 (91 percent).

Lumped under the rubric of the "Palestinian police" are all the security bodies that fulfilled combat and terror roles against Israel, the intelligence and preventive intelligence bodies, as well as those active in policing and maintaining order. Those serving in all of the Palestinian security apparatuses in 2007 and 2008 took part in terror activity and fighting against the IDF.

In the December 27, 2008, attack on an officer training course at Gaza police headquarters, 89 dead were counted. Of these, 60 (67 percent) belonged to Hamas and almost all were members of its military wing, the al-Qassam Brigades. The total number of terror activists and fighters among those killed at police headquarters was 81 (91 percent).

The human rights organizations which reported on Palestinian casualties in Gaza failed to mention the affiliation of hundreds of Palestinian security personnel who were members of terrorist organizations and who were trained fighters, thus artificially inflating the list of "civilians" killed by the IDF.

Yes, the Communist Jew-haters of NPR were covering this yesterday during morning drive time, they have a new victim called “the Gazans” and they (NPR) seem oblivous to the satanic death culture of the Palis, as well as the preference of the Muslim blood cult to store its armaments in schoolhouses, hospitals, and “civilian” public offices.

The remaining 9 per cent cheered as the terror rockets were launched by their fellow terrorists.
