IDF Foils Terror Attack in Samaria Town
Arutz Sheva ^ | 9/4/11 | David Lev

Posted on 04/09/2011 4:01:56 PM PDT by Eleutheria5

Soldiers at an IDF post near the Samaria town of Yitzhar – not far from Itamar, the site of the murder of the Fogel family just weeks ago – detected an attempted invasion of Arab terrorists on Friday night. The two terrorists who were attempting to get into the town escaped after a chase by IDF troops and the town's security brigade.

Soldiers detected two suspicious looking characters outside the town's security perimeter fence at about midnight Friday. The two were detected when they were about 150 meters from the fence, and were continuing to advance towards it. Troops focused a searchlight on them and called on them to halt, but the two began running away, escaping to a nearby Arab village. IDF troops entered the village in a search for the terrorists, but were unable to find them. They did, however, find seditious, anti-Israel material, including a PLO flag.

On Shabbat morning, after word spread throughout the town of the incident, residents approached the Arab village and conducted a protest outside it. A car was set on fire during the protests. No arrests were made.

They are like fish in a pond. They don't get away and tomorrow is another day of fishing.

The Israelis are going to have to be on perpetual watch for this for years, because the Arabs have proclaimed the vicious murder of an Israeli family as a “great victory”. This means that they will try the same m.o. a dozen more times, even if they fail in each subsequent attack.

Thanks Eleutheria5.
