(IsraelNN.com) Army officials reported on Sunday night that since the IDF incursion into the PA-controlled city on Friday, eight suicide bombers were taken into custody, thereby preventing the deadly attacks. In addition, 36 PA residents suspected of terrorist activities were taken into custody.
IDF forces were ordered into the PA autonomous area following Thursday morning's fatal suicide bombing attack on a No. 20 bus on Mexico Street in the capital. 11 persons were murdered in the attack that left almost 50 persons injured.

Three cheers for the IDF. I hope they have more success when they reconquer all the Palestinian Territories.

Sounds like good deterrence ... pre-emptive deterrence!

Salute IDF! Unfortunately, when the palis keep getting caught before they do any damage, then the palis, araRATfink and his many islamic cohorts start crying and whining that big bad Israel is subjugating the pali people. Bush, US State Dept, UN, and the surrounding islamic countries start pressuring Israel to rein in the IDF. Then murderous homicides by the palis start all over again. That makes the pali people happy as a lark. Nevermind that innocent Israelis are being murdered. Too bad that the pali homicide bombers just can't disappear permanently--now you see them now you don't type of disappearing act.

We have to give it up for the Israelis and their methods. They serve up valuable reminders:
- Taking care of "business" may be ugly, but it saves lives. Taking Thursday's attack as an average, the IDF prevented 8 x 11 = 88 deaths and 8 x 50 = 400 injuries.
- When your government doesn't work the way you want it to, disband it! :)

They should have at least strapped on the belts and let them finish their mission, like in Arafats compound.

Three cheers for the IDF. Do what you gotta do, guys, and tell the UN and Arab apologists to go to hell.

I propose after draining them of any useful information, drop them with explosive belts attached from a helicopter on Arafatass's compound.
