Israeli-Arab Fifth Column Watch (Helping Suicide Bombers Edition)

Is it even news any more when an Israeli-Arab citizen - a man who has the privilege of voting for Knesset members who then vote on Israel's military budget - helps a suicide bomber:

Police and Shin Bet operatives arrested Islam Badir, a resident of Kfar Kassem, who is suspected of having aided a suicide bomber who attacked the 'My Coffee Shop' cafe in March 2002. One woman was killed and dozens were injured in the attack. A breakthrough in the case came about a month and a half ago, when Jerusalem resident Abu Saris, 28, was arrested for illegal residence in Israel. During his investigation, Saris admitted to accompanying the terrorist from Nablus to Israel in accordance with instructions he had been given by terror leaders in the Balata refugee camp in Nablus.

In a similar vien, is it even news any more when a UN-built camp housing fourth and fifth generation permanent refugees - a UN- built camp with a UN-funded school - ends up being a center of terrorism? Unfortunately, not really, no.
