They are reaping what they’ve sowed already:
Israeli soldiers raided a prison in the West Bank town of Jericho in an operation to transfer to Israeli jails five inmates who assassinated a minister. Their main target, militant leader Ahmed Saadat, surrendered after a stand off, Agence France-Presse reported.
The raid, in which two Palestinians were killed and four wounded, prompted a wave of kidnappings and arson attacks in the Gaza Strip by Saadat’s group, the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine. Palestinian security forces shot and killed a PFLP member in Gaza during rioting, witnesses said. The group abducted nine foreigners, PFLP spokesman Abu Ra’aeda said. [Continue]
And the military wing says it’s only a matter of time before they respond:
DUBAI, March 14 (Reuters) - The military wing of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine said Israel would pay dearly for the arrest of the group’s leader on Tuesday.
“If comrade Ahmed Saadat is harmed, we vow that the price will be very high for Israel,” an official of the Abu Ali Mustafa Brigades told Al Arabiya television by telephone.
“We will respond and respond strongly whether he is harmed or not,” said the official who was identified by the alias Abu Jbarah.
Israeli forces stormed a West Bank prison with tanks and bulldozers on Tuesday to seize Saadat, who is accused of killing an Israeli minister in 2001. Saadat surrendered to Israeli forces eventually.
“Israeli leaders know that we have assassinated … Minister (Rehavam) Zeevi. If they harm Ahmed Saadat and his comrades we will shake the ground under the Zionist’s feet,” the Brigades’ official told Al Arabiya.
“We reiterate that we are free from any truce with the occupation. [Source]
