Netanyahu “congratulates” his troops for killing Palestinians of Nablus!

Local Editor, 29-12-2009

As a result of the raid the "Israeli" forces conducted on Nablus in the West bank, the "Israeli" Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu "congratulated" his troops for killing three Palestinians. Paris called upon "Israel" to stop its unsettling attacks, and the US demanded "Israel" to explain the facts of the operation.

Words about the three killed Palestinians spread, for the "Israeli" troops claimed that they had something to do with the "Israeli" settler killed last Thursday, whereas a security source said that three Palestinians were only workers looking for some junk to sell. Another three Palestinians were killed in a brutal and heartless way while they were entering the old town in Nablus in northern the West Bank.

Salam Fayyad, the Prime Minister of the Palestinian National Authority, asked the Palestinians not to be driven once again to the state of chaos and violence and demolish the state of security and stability. On the other hand, the "Israeli" organization "Teslim", asked to open a file on the operation and work on it.

According to "Israeli" newspapers, this operation came as a way of satisfaction for the "Israeli" settlers. This operation was conducted two days after an "Israeli" settler was killed between the Ennab and Shefi Shamron settlements next to Nablus, and who the sub-brigade of Al Aqsa Martyrs Brigades "Imad Moghniyeh Brigade", took the responsibility of killing.

On the weekly meeting of the "Israeli" government, Netanyahu said last meeting that he would like to congratulate the staff and army, on the quick operation against those who killed the "Israeli" settler.

The Palestinian authorities condemned the operation, which led the US, in an "out of the usual" step, to demand an explanation over the operation from the "Israeli" government, and over why weren't the Palestinian security forces alarmed of the act although the operation occurred in a Palestinian reigned region.

Haaretz mentioned that the American administration contacted Ozi Arad, the main advisor of the "Israeli" Prime Minister, clarifying that Arad affirmed that the operation rolls under the title of "self defense". Yet the journal mentioned the worries of an American authorized person towards the increasing violence, and urged on security cooperation. While on the other hand, the French Ministry of Foreign Affairs asks the "Israeli" army to stop the incursions that shake the stability in the West Bank.
