Would-be bomber turned back just before blowing up cafe

[drdon326]

A Hamas man intending to shoot his way into a popular Jerusalem cafe and then detonate a suicide bomb, stood before the popular restaurant last week wearing a gun and a explosive belt, then reconsidered and returned to the West Bank, it was revealed Sunday.

Also Sunday, Palestinians fired a Qassam rocket that landed in the Western Negev. No injuries or damage were reported.

Two days after the aborted Tuesday attempt, IDF troops killed the would-be bomber, Malek Nasser a-Din, in a gun battle at his home in Hebron.

Nasser a-Din reached Jerusalem's German Colony Tuesday afternoon after entering Israel through a breach in the separation fence in the Jerusalem region. He intended to shoot the restaurant's guards, then enter and blow himself up inside. But he reconsidered, and returned to the West Bank.

1. imagine the despair...

i don't care what anyone says: suicide bombing must be the absolute limit in terms of reaction of an oppressed people, and stories like this condemn fascism and brutish ignorance atc and israel if she choses policies that create suicide bombing....

2. Riiiiiiiight.....blame the victim.

Palestinian TERRORISTS war crimes and campaign of genocide against
innocent israelis has been documented.

It wasn't Israel that has summer camps teaching KIDS how to be suicide bombers and ambush israelis riding in cars.

Thats EXACTLY what happened to Tali Hatual and her 4 kids.

So, what do you think about the article??

5. the full story....

let's just admit we don't hear it....after all, what really happened on sept 11th? point here is that suicide bombing seems like an act of total despair, and maybe it's israel's immense power that cause the palestinian frustration....
that's not to justify anything....but israel's supporters do seem to wilfully ignore the imbalance of power that benefits their side.
