A Palestinian was arrested by Military Police and Border Guard officers
Sunday morning at the entrance to a checkpoint in the Jenin area in
possession of an improvised gun, a commando knife and 11 explosive devices
of different sizes.
Three other men suspected of aiding him were also detained. According to
suspicions, the four were on their way to carry out a terror attack. The
checkpoint has been closed.
After being arrested at the entrance to the Salem crossing in the Jenin
area, the suspects were taken in for questioning by the security forces. The
explosive devices they were carrying were destroyed.
The devices were found in the Salem crossing, where Palestinians wait in
line for the Jenin Military Court, located nearby. It's unclear whether the
court was the target of the attack.
A Military Police soldier spotted the four Palestinians trying to enter the
checkpoint and wires sticking out of the clothes of one of them. He ordered
him to lift up his hands and undress and found three pipe bombs on his body.
A search of the Palestinian's bag revealed eight more pipe bombs, a knife
and an improvised gun. The four Palestinians were locked in the building and
police sappers were dispatched to the area.
The other three Palestinians were not carrying anything on their body, but
were questioned on suspicion of aiding the man caught with the explosives.
A senior officer explained that this was an unusual incident. "Eleven
devices is an exceptional amount in one time. We've had incidents this year
of three or four devices seized at the same time."
Last week, a Border Guard force arrested a Jenin resident on suspicion of
planning a stabbing attack in Beersheba. The man was located in a hideout in
the southern city and taken in for questioning by the Shin Bet, as was
another Palestinian arrested at the Shoket Junction.

This is why we must remain at war, for our enemies are at war with us.
Simple.
But in the minds of so many fools, both Jewish and Gentile it is not as simple as what the truth is.
War is reality of our future not peace, sorry.
