At least three of the 41 Palestinians reportedly killed Monday in clashes ahead of the Jerusalem opening of the U.S. Embassy to Israel were “armed terrorists” caught trying to plant a bomb near the Gaza border fence, Israel's military said.
More than 35,000 protesters amassed at a dozen locations, with many engaging in skirmishes .... 41 people so far have been killed in Monday’s violence, and at least 772 have been wounded.
The relocation of the embassy from Tel Aviv, a key campaign promise of President Trump, has infuriated the Palestinians, who seek east Jerusalem as a future capital.
“Moments ago, an IDF patrol foiled a bomb-laying attack by a cell of three armed terrorists near Rafah,” the Israeli military said Monday. “This is a particularly violent protest point. The troops responded with fire at the terrorists. The terrorists were killed.”...
“Rioters are hurling pipe bombs and firebombs at IDF troops, burning tires, throwing stones and burning objects, with the intention of setting fires in Israel and hurting IDF troops,” ...
Israel’s security service, Shin Bet, claimed Monday that Hamas is encouraging Palestinian civilians to flood the border, with their own gunmen waiting in the wings to break through if a fence is breached. Shin Bet said it received that information during interrogations of members ... captured after crossing the security fence in recent weeks,
Lt. Col. Jonathan Conricus, an Israeli military spokesman, said the army had set up additional "layers" of security in and around communities near the border to defend Israeli civilians in case of a mass breach. He said there already had been several "significant attempts" to break through the fence.
"Even if the fence is breached, we will be able to protect Israeli civilians from attempts to massacre or kidnap or kill them," he said.

The Muslims created this misery when they refused admittance to their cousins emigrating from the newly formed Israel.
At 100 or so body count, Big Media can start calling terrorists “freedom fighters”.
Kill all that are a threat to the border.
The others should think twice unless
they want their one 72 year old virgin.
Uh, how about 41 terrorists? After action reports show some were “unarmed”. Maybe un-legged too. Where’s that D-9?
Kill em all
That’s their attitude towards Israel
41 dead Jihadis is a good start.
41 dead Jihadis is a good start.

That’s what I was waiting for.
Typical arab backwardness and cowardice.
They’re unwanted gypsies used as muz-pawns against Israel.
“”at least 772 have been wounded.””
Hope they have emergency facilities in GAZA - not to save the critters but so they aren’t taken to Israel for treatment...
35,000 at the border, huh? No responsibilities otherwise to keep them busy - jobs, families etc. HATRED is a full time job, I guess.
Israel’s forebearance is remarkable. IIRC, their air force has several C-130 Spectre gunships that could called upon if the leadership *really* wanted to smack this threat down hard.
Making yet another good argument for our own Wall.
Once again, Hamas over promises and under delivers.
Today the masses from Gaza were supposed to flood through the fence, and overwhelm Israeli defenses.
Instead, they got three of their own killed, and another day of the same old photo ops - a bit more smoke, as they anted up a few from their dwindling stock of tires to burn.
They will be in a world of hurt if there is regime change in Iran, and thy have lost their Gulf Arab support.
I hope ICE and DHS sent a few thousand of our agents over there to train with the Islaeli Military.
One day of this kind of action on the RIO Grande our invasion would be over.
There's been well over 100 Palistinians killed since this 'March of Return' protest got about a month ago.
Today might set the 'most killed in a day' record though...
“Today might set the ‘most killed in a day’ record though...”
Big Media propagandists are hoping so.
“Unarmed” ??
Not exactly.... “Rioters are hurling pipe bombs and firebombs at IDF troops, burning tires, throwing stones and burning objects, with the intention of setting fires in Israel and hurting IDF troops,” ...
