Palestinian Militant Killed by Missile-Witnesses
Reuters | 10/15/01

NABLUS, West Bank (Reuters) - An Israeli helicopter fired a missile at a car in the West Bank city of Nablus on Monday, killing one Islamic militant and wounding another, Palestinian doctors and witnesses.

They said the missile hit the car as it was traveling near an office belonging to Palestinian President Yasser Arafat's Fatah faction. The car was destroyed in the blast and the Fatah office was slightly damaged.

Palestinian officials identified the dead man as Ahmed Marshoud, a member of the militant group Hamas who they said was wanted by Israel.

The Israeli army declined to comment.

The strike occurred a day after Israel renewed a widely criticized track-and-kill policy by shooting dead an Islamic militant it says was behind a deadly suicide bomb attack.

Doctors said the second man was only slightly injured. Palestinian officials said he was also a member of Hamas, which has been behind a spate of suicide bombings against Israel since a Palestinian revolt against Israeli occupation erupted last year.

did you see henry kissinger call him "the most ruthless man ive ever met"

How about when he said "this so-called war" early last week at a press conference.

He and Wolfowitz must be having a very tough time keeping Colin Powell from blowing the whole game.

These people know how to deal with Terrorist. They should be training the CIA of today, to do what the CIA of yesterday trained them to do.

What goes around, comes around. Or, at least, lets hope it does.

Did it hurt? I'll bet it hurt when he killed and maimed all those Israelis in the buses and discos. I hope he lived long enough for his dying eyes to stare back at his charred, headless corpse.

I guess you could say I'm not very enamored of islamic terrorists.

Hitler would be jealous

That a terrorist was killed before he could blow up another pizza joint filled with Jewish grandparents, moms and kids?

You know a different Hitler than I've read about.

Gee how disappointing I was waiting to see the usual suspects a (a small crowd yhere thankfully) who were going to say Israel was bad for doing this.

Oh well. And BTW it would be great to see a policy put into effect by Israel and the US, that all terrorist's remains are to be buried with pig grease, snouts, etc. I would love to see what Ali Osama and the forty freaks think of that.

Kevin, it appears that we have here one of the deeper pro pyscho mass murdering Arab supporters/moles on Free Republic!

Isn't amazing how they come out of their cess pools to cry tears for the dead mass murderers after the IDF takes them out.

Then the real clue is when they try to compare the Israelis battle for survivial to Hitler! I hope all of these pro Arab Mass Murderers have high lighted themselves with an electronic trail for our FBI to follow! Or even better, maybe they are now in the cross hairs of the Mossad by identifying themselves as pro Mass Murdering Arab Terrorists.

Judge Randal member since August 22nd, 2001! Knock! Knock! Judge Randal! Someone at your door wants to talk to you about supporting mass murdering Arab terrorists~! Have a nice day!

"Palestinian Militant Killed by Missile-Witnesses"

Killing the killers before they strike again has always seemed like a wise policy to me.

I'm sure Arafat will understand, after all, he's "against all terror"...
