Gee, nothing could go wrong with Israeli prisoner releases planned with the Palestinians, eh?
The two terrorists who were killed Thursday evening after breaking into a yeshiva in the settlement of Kfar Etzion were released from an Israeli prison last week, Palestinian sources in Hebron told Ynet.
According to the sources, the terrorists were identified as relatives Muhammad and Mahmoud Sbarana, both 20-year-old Hamas members from the village of Beit Omer, near Hebron.
The terrorists, armed with a gun and a knife and dressed in uniform, threatened the students and the instructors with the weapons before being shot to death by the yeshiva’s instructors, two of whom were lightly injured while struggling with the terrorists.
Palestinian security officials told Ynet Friday morning that the two were imprisoned in Israel for the past two years for attempting to steal weapons from an IDF base in the Gush Etzion area.
They don’t even need “blood on their hands” to try for blood on their hands.
Another Israeli was killed by a Fatah—excuse me, Al Aqsa Martyrs group—terrorist.
A Border Guard police officer was killed and three people were injured Thursday evening in two simultaneous terror attacks which took place in the Jerusalem area.
Two Border Guard officers were shot at the northern entrance to the refugee camp of Shoafat, north of Jerusalem. Twenty-year-old Lance Corporal Rami Zuhari of Beersheva was critically injured, and later died of his wounds despite paramedics’ attempts to resuscitate him. Another female officer sustained moderate to serious wounds and was evacuated to the Hadassah Ein Kerem Hospital in the capital.
And oh yeah—they’re going to keep on killing.
Fatah activists belonging to the “Brigades of Return” and to “Black September” claimed responsibility for carrying out the shooting attack in Shoafat Thursday evening. The attack left one Israeli dead and another one seriously wounded.
A spokesman on behalf of the al-Aqsa Martyrs’ Brigades, Fatah’s military wing, told Ynet that the attackers “returned to their base safely.”
[…] “This is our proof that we are no longer committed to the calm and that we do not intend to continue handing over our weapons,” the spokesman said. “We are only committed to resistance against the Israeli occupation. The next attacks are already underway, we promised a response within a few days and this is the first operation in a series of operations.”
These are Israel’s “partners in peace.” And the head of Fatah is: That’s right. Mahmoud Abbas, the man who called the deaths of Hamas terrorists a “massacre.” You know, I’ve searched in vain to find a single reference to Mahmoud Abbas condemning the terrorist attacks in Jerusalem. Huh. It’s almost like he, well, doesn’t actually care that terrorists are murdering Israelis.
Go figure.
