Wanted Nablus Hamas activist killed in apparent assassination
By Amos Harel, Military Correspondent, and Reuters

Palestinians accused Israel of killing an Islamic militant on Monday despite U.S. and British pressure to end a year-long conflict threatening regional support for the Washington-led war on terrorism.

It was unclear how Ahmed Marshoud, a member of the Hamas
group who is wanted by Israel, was killed. Some Palestinians said he was killed in a helicopter missile strike, while others said a booby-trapped car exploded as he walked past. The Israeli army declined comment.

The killing occurred a day after Israel renewed an
internationally condemned track-and-kill policy to shoot dead an Islamic militant it said was behind a suicide bombing at a Tel Aviv disco in June. It says the policy thwarts militants planning attacks on Israelis.

Surprise, Mr. disco bomber. Turn in your gold chains and Hai Karate cologne - there are no 72 virgins for you, just an eternity of Saturday Night Fever.

Burn, baby burn! Disco Inferno....
