Donkey-Bomb Fails
Israel National News ^ | 1/26/03 | Arutz Sheva

Posted on 01/26/2003 10:44:34 AM PST by yonif

On other terrorist fronts, a "donkey bomb" attack failed when a donkey laden with explosives was detonated alongside a line of Israeli cars. Several passengers were treated for shock, and light damage was caused. Josh Adler of Efrat told Arutz-7 what happened: "I was on my way to Jerusalem, and I saw a donkey on the road. It appeared both suspicious and dangerous, so I notified the Gush Etzion Emergency Center, and then I continued traveling and saw another donkey, this one with two baskets on it. I wanted to call again, but exactly at that moment it blew up near my car."

In what a passenger in the car behind him described as "miraculous," Adler said that his injuries amounted only to "ringing in the ears and a headache. Nearby and slightly beforehand, an explosive was hurled at a Border Guard jeep; no one was hurt.

Two soldiers killed on Thursday night while they were patrolling the highway south of Hevron were buried today. Corp. Assaf Bitan was laid to rest in the military section of the Afula cemetery, while Corp. Ronald Berer was buried in Rehovot. The funeral of the third victim, Yaakov Naim, was held on Friday in his hometown of Kfar Monash, near Netanya.

Many general terrorist warnings have been received for the coming days, and the police and security services are on alert. A general closure has been imposed on all Arab villages in Judea, Samaria, Gaza and the Jordan Valley, to be removed the day after the elections, early Wednesday morning. The roads to and from these areas, and the Allenby and Rafiach border crossings into Jordan and Egypt, will be totally closed during this period, except for humanitarian emergencies.

When the donkey suicide bomber succeeds does the IDF demolish his barn?

A hideous, raging inferno.

When donkey bombs are outlawed, only outlaw donkeys will have bombs.

Are the Pali's running low on fool humans that want to kill themselves? Yeesh. I actually think this is much more abhorrent than the suicide bombers that are at least willing to die for their own cause. This is about as cowardly as it gets.

Well, you have to commend their resolve. Whoever set this up was willing to have his ass blown off the face of the Earth. Anyone willing to sacrifice his ass in a suicide mission has to be dedicated.

They MUST be... The suicide bombers were getting younger and younger...

The PA has even been renaming all their high schools in honor of the past suicide bombers in order to recruit more killers.

What next? Rename all the elementary schools as well??

YOU Wrote this...

"What makes a donkey so desperate that suicide bombing is his only answer?"

The DEMONIC ISLAMA-NAZIS have NO Regard or Reverence for any LIFE...including a Defenseless little Animal.

ISRAEL and The USA MUST WIPE OUT FOREVER THE ENEMY.

A So-Called "Pallie" State will be the Certain Destruction Of Israel and The Jewish People.

Wake Up Israel and USA, Repent and TESHUVAH!

The PETA IDIOTS are Only Intrested in Fluff when it Suits their Master.

Well, I read the entire article through several times, and it never says what happened to the donkey.

Who, what, when, where, why? Will these modern reporters never learn? The facts, Ma'am, just the facts.

It says clearly what happened in the first part of the article. The donkey exploded, injuring lightly Israeli citizens who were in their cars.

Revenge.

Let's pack a nice fat porker full of dynamite and send it into one of their mosques.

That's what you call a double whammy.

"a donkey laden with explosives was detonated."

Well, yes, probably the donkey had it. But they don't really say. And to pick a small nit with the phrasing of this article, presumably it was the explosives that were detonated, not the donkey.
