A Bedouin citizen from Rahat was murdered by Arab terrorists this afternoon (Wednesday) while guarding the separation fence being constructed near the community of Shekef. The guard, who was watching over bulldozers used to flatten the route of the separation fence, was shot at close range. The IDF has launched a search for the terrorists, who escaped with the guard's pistol.
The murder site is located west of Hevron, just six miles south of a terrorist murder that took place less than 24 hours before. Ariella Fahima, a mother of four from Moshav Nehusha, just south of Beit Shemesh, was found murdered near her home yesterday afternoon. Preliminary findings point to a terror attack.
Fahima, 39, was found by her 12-year-old daughter with stab wounds to her throat and body. The daughter, who had just come home from school, alerted the neighbors, who then contacted the police. A search of the region was immediately launched.
Several indications, including the fact that nothing was stolen, lead investigators to lean toward attributing the murder to terrorists – probably two or three. The police are still gathering testimony from residents, who had recently complained that the electronic fence surrounding their community was not effective.
In other terrorism-war news, it has been released for publication that a Jordanian terrorist recruited by both Fatah and Hizbullah planned to coordinate massive terror attacks, including the bombing of Israeli trains. The terrorist, named Abu Juyad, was apprehended on August 25 by the General Security Service (GSS).
Abu Juyad represents the new face of global Islamic terrorism. He received bomb-making training in Syria, and took part in anti-US operations in Iraq in which he was lightly wounded. He managed to slip into Israel in June 2004 under the pretense of visiting family in PA-controlled Tul Karem.
Among other plots, Abu Juyad planned to set up Arab terror cells amongst Israeli Arabs, in addition to those living in PA areas in order to bomb large-scale targets such as railway lines and to kidnap soldiers. He also sought to coordinate attacks on Israeli targets in Jordan.
