U.S. to Israel: Explain killing of Fatah militants
Haaretz ^ | Dec 27, 2009 | Barak Ravid

Senior Obama administration officials have requested that National Security Adviser Uzi Arad explain an Israel Defense Forces raid in Nablus on Saturday during which undercover troops killed three Al Aqsa Martyrs Brigades terrorists.

Arad shared intelligence with the officials that Israel had received about the militants, who belonged to the military wing of the Western-backed Fatah movement and the details of the operation that led to their deaths.

The national security advisor, a key aide to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, stressed that this was a case of self-defense, since the three were behind a terror attack on Thursday in which a settler was shot dead.

Israeli political sources said the Obama administration did not formally protest or complain about the incident, but only sought clarifications, passing on the Palestinians' complaint.

The Obama administration just can’t stand happy endings.

“They’re terrorist killers. We caught them and we shot the bastards. But that’s not important right now.”

Not absent. Not unconcerned. Just looks that way to you.

"Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction.
We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream.
It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same,
or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children
and our children's children what it was once like in the United States where men were free.
"
President Ronald Reagan

” killed three Al Aqsa Martyrs Brigades terrorists”
That idiot, Obama. I don't think he understands what the words ‘MARTYRS’ and ‘TERRORISTS’ when put together usually means bloodshed. Thank God Israel has the balls to take out the bad guys and not put them on a pedestal like our brilliant president does.

U.S. to Israel: Explain killing of Fatah militants

Israel to U.S.:

1. Breathe.
2. Aim.
3. Squeeze.
4. Slack.

These blithering, dithering idiots are unbelievable. You dim wits, they are Israel’s enemy. They want to kill Israel’s people. Israel killed them first. I’m sure the big O’s people think they should have tried bowing to the terrorists first.

God bless Bibi for getting revenge for the murder of Rabbi Hier, despite his idiot son’s eulogy that “revenge is not for Jews”.

When asked “why”, the Israelis should have replied:

“Oh, they were Fatah terrorists????? My bad.... we thought they were the incredible a**hole* who tried to run down our security guard in US Diplomatic limo”.

ISRAEL to Senior Obomba Administration officials: The Art of War is to Kill ALL of the Bad Guys and not stop until they are all dead. Do you now understand or should we continue to show you how to do it?
