I love starting the day off with good news. Four paleswinians were wiped out as they set up to fire rockets into Israel, under the watchful (and sympathetic) eye of the Anti-American Associated Press.
IDF Special Forces operated deep inside the Gaza Strip late Monday night in the first ground operation there since this past summer’s disengagement, killing four Islamic Jihad operatives on their way to fire Kassam rockets at Israeli targets. In West Bank violence, three Palestinians were killed in clashes with IDF troops.
The military force laid ambush later Monday night for terrorists in the northern Gaza village of Beit Lahyia. Backed up by IAF helicopter fire, the ground troops opened fire at a terror cell they spotted on its way to launch Kassams and killed four while wounding an additional eight.
Palestinian security officials said the IDF Special Forces were joined at one point by a naval diving unit and that the fierce fighting lasted about five hours, ending just before dawn.
I wonder if Bilal Hussein was in the area. Would have been nice to have taken him out at the same time. Oh well. The least the AP photographer could have done was jump in front of some of those IDF bullets - that’s the only real way to demonstrate genuine solidarity. Lighting the fuse and running is nice, but show some stones, journalists!
Tragedy? No, Progress.
