FIRST REPORT: ISRAELI GUNSHIPS, TANKS HITTING JENIN
GAMLA sources are reporting an initial IDF attack on the city of Jenin, which sits close to the area of Megiddo. At 7:35 this morning, a stolen Israeli car exploded next to a bus carrying both civilians and soldiers. The current death toll of Israelis murdered in this latest attrocity stands now at 16. Some 30 other wounded, some seriously, are still being treated in hospitals.
Many questions are being asked this morning as to exactly what the Israeli reply will be to the terror attack will be. It was reported yesterday that CIA chief Tenet told Arafat that if there would be another large terror attack, they would not be responsible for any Israeli reply, including the exile of himself, and possibly others.
This attack on Jenin is seen by GAMLA sources as only being the tip of the iceberg, and Israel will not give it's full answer until PM Sharon meets with President Bush next week.
Radio and TV have yet to report this, but you can get the details from GAMLA:
