Palestinians ramp up terror to gunfire. Israel Intelligence still at a loss
Sunday, Feb. 14, will go down as a landmark day in the terror
campaign the Palestinians have been waging against Israel for five
months. It marked the latest, deliberately ramped up phase. After
advancing from rocks, stabbings, car rammings and teen attacks, through
the stage of loners to gangs of two and three, it moved up this week to
shooting and explosive devices. Four Palestinian shooting attacks took
place in 12 hours, most using knock-off Carl Gustav submachine guns
turned out by illegal foundries in Nablus.
The latest attacks were deliberately planned to maximize casualties
among Israeli police officers and soldiers. In Jenin it started with an
ambush: Two 15-year old boys threw rocks at a group of Israeli
reservists, who gave chase. One of the fleeing boys then pulled out a
submachine gun, turned round and sprayed the pursuers, who returned the
fire, killing the boys.
