Moslem kills 5, wounds 40, in Israel mall

A stinking, filthy, lice-ridden, moslem scumbag killed 5 and wounded at least 40 in a Netanya mall suicide bombing this morning. In response to this tragic act of terror, Yassir Sharon is reportedly preparing massive capitulations and sweeping concessions to force Mahmoud Abbas to reign in terrorism once and for all.

This from Reuters:

NETANYA, Israel, Dec 5 (Reuters) - A Palestinian suicide bomber killed five people and wounded more than 40 outside a shopping mall in an Israeli coastal town on Monday in a further blow to peace hopes stirred by Israel's Gaza pullout.

Islamic Jihad claimed responsibility for the attack in Netanya, saying it was avenging Israel's recent killing of senior members of the militant group. A police officer said the bomber smiled at him before blowing himself up near shoppers.

The bombing, the fifth since a truce was declared in February, was certain to draw Israeli reprisals as Prime Minister Ariel Sharon pressed on with a re-election campaign in which he can ill afford to look soft on Palestinian militants.

A new surge of violence would dim any chance for progress on long-stalled peacemaking amid new Israeli calls for Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas to crack down on armed groups.

"There was a boom and there was a flash. Seconds later, people were lying on the ground, some wounded and some dead," witness Yisrael Klein told Channel Two television. "The most horrific sight was the severed head of the terrorist."

The force of the blast splattered blood high on the stone and glass facade of the mall and sprayed body parts in all directions. Bodies lay covered with blankets at the entrance.
