Israeli Troops Shoot Pregnant Woman

NABLUS, West Bank -- Israeli troops at a checkpoint shot and wounded a pregnant Palestinian woman in labor and killed her husband Monday as the couple tried to reach a hospital -- a day after another pregnant woman was shot in an almost identical case at the same West Bank roadblock, Palestinians said.

In both instances, the Israeli military said soldiers opened fire after the cars ignored orders to stop and tried to drive around the roadblock in the tense city of Nablus.

The Palestinians must have plans to send women dressed as pregnant women to be the next wave of suicide bombers. First they have to make sure that pregnant women have the go ahead through the border crossings and roadblocks. So they send a few pregnant women through the barriers recklessly and cry crocodile tears at the resulting consequences until the world pressures Israel to make special unsecure provisions for pregnant women.
