Yet another suicide terrorist attack was miraculously thwarted last night when the designated bomb went off prematurely at an army checkpoint between southern Jerusalem and Bethlehem. The Bethlehem resident carrying it was the only one killed by the blast. His plan was apparently to detonate it either among the soldiers at the checkpoint or in Jerusalem. The terrorist\'s brother was quoted as saying that he died as a \"shahid\" (holy martyr) for his people.
