Palestinian Murders Woman in Suicide Blast
One woman killed, 38 wounded as two Palestinian terrorists attacked a cafe in Israel. One of the would-be suicide bombers was killed before he could detonate himself (thank God for small miracles).
That's right, they attacked a cafe. Cowards.
Who was behind the terrorism? The armed wing of the West Bank government's Fatah party, the al Aqsa's Martyrs Brigade, and the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP).
"Monday's terror attack gives us a painful reminder that we must be vigilant and maintain our readiness in all areas," Prime Minister Ehud Olmert said hours after a 20-year-old woman was killed and 38 people were wounded, one critically, in a suicide bombing in a Dimona commercial center....Police said the bombing was carried out by two attackers, but only one succeeded in detonating his explosives. The other terrorist was killed - seconds before he could detonate his explosives belt - by Kobi Mor, a police officer from an elite unit who happened to be at the scene....
The Aksa Martyrs Brigades claimed responsibility for planning the attack, saying it had been in the works for about a month. In a press conference convened by the terror group, the two bombers were named as Mussa Arafat, from Khan Yunis, a member of the Abu Ali Mustafa Brigades - the armed wing of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine, and Aksa operative Luwi Luwani from the Gaza Strip.
Aksa spokesman Abu Fouad said that the two bombers entered Israel from Egypt after Hamas blew up the Gaza-Egypt border wall. However, the claim was later denied by the group.
