Paratroopers kill five Palestinian fugitives near Jenin (UPDATE)
By THE JERUSALEM POST INTERNET STAFF

IDF paratroopers killed five Palestinian fugitives in the area of Tamoun near Jenin on the West Bank Thursday.

OC Central Command Maj.-Gen. Moshe Kaplinsky said the men were all high on Israel's wanted list.

Kaplisnky added that Thursday's operation was meant to prevent a planned attack. While approaching a militant hideout, soldiers were fired on and returned fire, killing five. Troops clamped a curfew on Tamoun, near the Palestinian city of Nablus.

The army said soldiers found an explosives belt apparently meant for a suicide bombing and two M-16s at the hideout.

Palestinian security officials said three of the five were from Hamas, and another came from the Al Aqsa Martyrs Brigade, linked to Yasser Arafat's Fatah movement.

Four less terrorists to worry about.

If Israel offered to create a Palestinian State right now the terrorist organizations would turn the offer down. All they want is the extermination of all Israelis; nothing more and nothing less will satisfy these vermin.
