Two Suicide Terrorists Captured [Israel is on HIGH ALERT for Passover]
Israel National News ^ | 3/16/2003

Posted on 04/16/2003 12:35:05 PM PDT by yonif

IDF anti-terror troops captured Tuesday night two Arab terrorists who were preparing to depart for suicide attacks. An explosives belt that was to be used by one of the Arabs was confiscated.

The first arrest occurred at the IDF’s Tamun checkpoint, some 28 miles east of Netanya. The terror suspect was identified as Mohammed Besharat of the Islamic Jihad group. IDF Intelligence sources say that Besharat’s explosives belt was found several hours before his arrest. The belt included 15 explosive charges surrounded by over 1,000 nails, packed in to increase injury.

The second arrest took place in the Nur a-Shams neighborhood of Tul Karm, located 10 miles east of Netanya. Abbed El Rachman Achmud of the Hamas terrorist organization was apprehended and according to military officials, he too was preparing for an attack in a nearby Israeli city.

I wonder if any of those 80 vests that were missing in Iraq went to Palestine? Just curious.

"IDF anti-terror troops captured Tuesday night two Arab terrorists who were preparing to depart for suicide attacks. An explosives belt that was to be used by one of the Arabs was confiscated"

I think these guys should chained to an engine block in the middle of the desert, with their explosive belts on. They can then choose to join their 72 virgins any time they wish.

GOOD! I STILL remember the EVIL that was done on last year's Passover in Israel. I'm praying for a peaceful and joyous Passover week in Israel this year and for many years to come.

"I wonder if any of those 80 vests that were missing in Iraq went to Palestine? Just curious."

I didn't know that there were 80 missing. How do they know how many there were there bbefore they discovered them to know ho many are missing?

Anyway, to answer your question: if these that were caught are black leather and plastic with ball bearings covering the explosives, then those would match the ones found at the school. Yahoo news is reporting that a Palestinian terror camp has just been found:

While I know these homicide bombers are fanatics, I wonder how long it will take their families to figure out that the Saddam Hussein Homicide Bomber Gravy Train has been derailed permanently?

Yup. These highly moral Palestinians are well on the road to statehood, alright.

Suicide bombers are in a dead end career.

Take them to the desert at high noon, tie them to a cactus, attach a long string to the rip-cord, dump a 55 gallon drum of pig offal over then, wait one hour, and pull the string.

Jail the bastards for starters and COLLECT $25,000 from their families in a reverse of the payout Saddam had going.

Now "THAT" would be interesting.

And remember when all the Islamists were bitching about us bombing Afghanistan during Ramadan. I'll never forget the Passover Massacre last year. Hope the IDF prevents the islamofacists from causing any more destruction.

So, if they spend the rest of their lives in prison without becoming martyrs, do they miss out on the virgins? I am curious, just what good is such a fleshly delight after you have blown your flesh to bits?
