Israeli Troops Kill 2 Jihadists Planting Bomb At Gaza Border Fence


Good news! The ever-alert Israeli troops on the Gaza border put a little downer on the plans of two jihadists (Fatah's boys) to place a bomb at the Gaza/Israel border fence. Apparently, Fatah, Hamas and Islamic Jihad are having a bit more trouble messing with this fence than they had when they were able to torch and bomb through the fence in front of the Egyptians! Haha. Anyway, that's two less muj to have to worry about in Gaza tonight. From the article:


They identified the men killed near the town of Beit Hanoun as members of al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades, an armed wing of Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas's Fatah faction.

Now, wasn't it old Mahmoud Abbas that was just complaining about how Israel is messing up all the peace plans? And here we have two of his military wing misfits placing a bomb at a border fence. I mean, is there anyone in the world that would trust one word coming out of the heathen mouth of Mahmoud Abbas?

Here's the full story from Reuters.


Israeli troops kill 2 Gaza gunmen on border-medics

GAZA, March 29 (Reuters) - Israeli forces killed two Palestinians who tried to plant a bomb on the Gaza Strip's northern border fence on Saturday, Palestinian hospital officials and a militant faction said.
They identified the men killed near the town of Beit Hanoun as members of al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades, an armed wing of Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas's Fatah faction.
An Israeli military spokesman had no immediate comment.
Earlier, an Israeli air strike in nearby Gaza City wounded three Palestinians, hospital officials said. It was not immediately clear if they had militant affiliations.
The military said the air force attacked a group of Palestinian gunmen after two rockets and two mortar bombs were fired into Israel from Gaza. (Reporting by Nidal al-Mughrabi; editing by Richard Williams)
