Israeli forces seized 10 bombs being prepared for attacks in Israeli cities as security agencies braced for a new wave of Palestinian suicide attacks.
The bombs were found in the West Bank city of Ramallah, in the headquarters of the Force 17 praetorian guard headed by Palestinian Authority Chairman Yasser Arafat.
Police have established roadblocks along major arteries from the West Bank to Israeli communities after a Palestinian blew himself up in the elite Israeli community of Herzliya Tuesday in the first such attack on the Tel Aviv suburb. An Israeli teenager was killed and 18 others were injured in the suicide bombing at a fast-food restaurant in a crowded shopping area of the city, Middle East Newsline reported.
Meanwhile, Israeli officials said Prime Minister Ariel Sharon told President Georget Bush that Syria has delivered 400 improved Katyusha rockets to the Iranian-backed Hizbullah movement. Sharon's message was delivered during during his meeting Monday at the White House.
The offficials said Sharon, briefed by Mossad officials, urged Bush to stop the Iranian and Syrian aid for the Hizbullah buildup along the Lebanese border with Israel.
Officials said this was the first time that Syria has provided direct military aid to Hizbullah. For the last 20 years, Hizbullah was solely financed and equipped by Iran.
But Iran is said to have been facing difficulties transporting weapons to southern Lebanon. Officials said Turkey has prevented its air space from being used by Iranian military transports to Damascus and U.S. Sixth Fleet warships are patrolling the eastern Mediterranean for military shipments to organizations deemed by Washington as terrorists.
For its part, Hizbullah is believed to be providing aid to Palestinian insurgency groups.
In the Gaza Strip, Israeli troops killed four suspected Palestinian insurgents who had tried to enter a Jewish settlement. Palestinian sources said one person was killed.

Why do we continue to hold Arafat up as some kind of noble leader when his hands are coated with the blood of the victims? These bombs were found in his compound!

You'll note that the UN and EU who are forever concerned with human rights will NEVER comment on this. "It never happened..." These two orgs have demonstrated that they are complete shams.

The bombs were found in the West Bank city of Ramallah, in the headquarters of the Force 17 praetorian guard headed by Palestinian Authority Chairman Yasser Arafat. Well, well, well. Of coure, the "Nobel Peace Prize" (gag!) winner knew nothing about this. Attention Bush/Powell, need a "Bush Doctrine" cleanup on aisle seven.
Meanwhile, Israeli officials said Prime Minister Ariel Sharon told President Georget Bush that Syria has delivered 400 improved Katyusha rockets to the Iranian-backed Hizbullah movement. Sharon's message was delivered during during his meeting Monday at the White House. The officials said Sharon, briefed by Mossad officials, urged Bush to stop the Iranian and Syrian aid for the Hizbullah buildup along the Lebanese border with Israel.
I'm sure Sharon added: "Or we will do it."

Iran, Syria, what's the diff. Take them both out. "Bush Doctrine", where are you?

Maybe the IDF should volunteer Arabfart for a suicide bombing mission. Some good targets that came to mind were an open field, or PA headquarters, or any crowded Palesterrorist settlement.
To: uncloakedtrth
Let me see if I remember this right;When the IDF turned up documents for the purchase of weapons etc(all banned by OSLO ACCORD)with "Yessir,You're A Fart's"signature on them,he deemed them"Forgeries"!Now,I guess he'll claim that The IDF PLANTED THESE BOMBS!!!Who was that who said,"You're Time Is Up"?????

And Then Feed The Vermins' Body Parts To HOGS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

"Why do we continue to hold Arafat up as some kind of noble leader when his hands are coated with the blood of
the victims? These bombs were found in his compound! " punishment should "fit the crime"
arafat should be strapped into n egyptian airliner, with a nuke on board
n flown to mecca when the saudi royal family is in town
he would be the "ultimate suicide bomber"....
the "first muslim atonement"

Sometimes it seems that the Saudi Royals could personally blow up an American building and we'd respond by threatening Iraq.

Obviously a zionist plot to discredit the exhaulted leader Airy-Fart. No sane person would believe that Airy-Fart would be invovled in the mass-murder bombings, which themselves are nothing more than self-defense. After all, children grow up to be soldiers, don't they?
