Palestinian suicide bomber attacks Gaza crossing

GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip - A Palestinian suicide bomber detonated a truck loaded with tons of explosives early Thursday in an attempt to ram a crucial crossing between the Gaza Strip and Israel, militants said. There were no casualties besides the bomber.

Also mentioned, was a shooting involving Palestinian gunmen hiding among civilians, like they always do. Of course the media tries to paint it as if Israel intentionally shot at the civilians.

Israeli troops opened fire on a crowd of protesters at another border crossing several hours later. A Gaza health official said a 22-year-old man was killed and 16 people, including three children, were wounded. The military said it opened fire after spotting gunmen in the crowd, including one carrying an anti-tank missile.

Two militant Palestinian factions — Islamic Jihad and the Al Aqsa Martyrs’ Brigades — claimed responsibility for the bombing at the Erez passenger crossing, which could be heard for miles around and shattered windows in Netiv Haasara, an Israeli community across the border.

Abu Ahmad, an Islamic Jihad spokesman, said the bombing was meant to “send a message” to Israel that if it didn’t accept a truce, “Gaza is not going to be a place where you will enjoy stability.”

Gotta love the terrorist mentality of “Accept our truce, or else!”.
