Suicide Bomber Kills Three In Israel

But Tom Friedman said that the Palestinians really want peace this time! That first link is from a comment made earlier today. I couldn't believe what I was hearing, knowing that Palestinian terrorist groups had not stopped their assault on Israelis. They may have stopped the suicide bombings for a while, but not for lack of trying. What planet was Friedman covering these days? Had he not been checking the Israeli news reports that repeatedly indicate that Israeli forces intercepted terrorists trying to blow themselves up? Trying to smuggle weapons and and other terrorists into Israel or the territories? Or that Hamas and Hizbullah had never assented to any kind of deal with Israel and repeatedly state that they will never accept a state of Israel in their midst.

Well, they tried today - and succeeded in killing three Israelis in a shopping mall in the resort town of Netanya.

Interestingly, the transcript from this morning doesn't include Friedman's comments about the Palestinian change of heart about terrorism. There are quotes about terrorism in general and Iraq, but not about the Arab-Israeli situation.

UPDATE:
These are the guys behind the terrorist attacks. Don't ever lose sight of that fact.
