West Bank Palestinians Embrace Peace By Smuggling Pipe Bomb, Throwing Molotov Cocktails At Civilians (Plus: Gaza Palestinians Still Just Firing Mortars)

What Happens When Checkpoints Fail

Totally moderate pipe bombs and Molotov cocktails, of course:

A Palestinian man carrying a pipe bomb and two knives was arrested Saturday evening at the Hawarah checkpoint south of Nablus. Sappers detonated the bomb in a controlled explosion, and the man was taken in for interrogation by security forces. In another incident in the West Bank, Palestinians threw six Molotov cocktails at an Israeli car traveling near Ramallah...Palestinians in the Gaza Strip fired three mortar shells at the western Negev.

Guess those "humiliating" weapons checkpoints that human rights groups whine about might actually be necessary for, you know, checking weapons. Could it be that the Israelis are more concerned with security than with erecting some kind of weird sadistic regime that doesn't exist outside the minds of Jimmy Carter and his anti-Semiticish friends? Which is, admittedly, a lot of minds. Three billion at a minimum. But not very good ones.
