Two man Paleo recon unit gets noticed
2004-01-25
Israeli soldiers on Saturday shot and killed two Palestinian militants staking out an army position with binoculars along the fortified fence between Gaza and Israel. Members of the Al Aqsa Martyrs’ Brigades, an even more violent extremist offshoot of Palestinian decrepit leader Yasser Arafat’s Fatah movement, said the two mental giants men were on an "exploratory mission" to gather intelligence for a future splodydope attack. Soldiers shot the men as they neared the fence.
[Kapwing!] [Kapwing!] "That was easy, Moshe."
Several hours later, at the start of their funeral, other members of the group too cowardly to join their pals speaking through loudspeakers said the two men were dispatched on an "exploratory suicide mission" to gather intelligence near an army position in the military zone along Gaza’s edge with Israel.
"Unfortunately they didn’t return, so we have no idea what they found out, except that the IDF is out there. Somewhere. We think."
The men were identified as Ashraf al-Imbayed, 25, who had been wearing a freshly ventilated military-style jacket, and a close distant relative from the same Darwinist family clan, Samir al-Imbayed, 23. The men were strangely unarmed but carrying binoculars and cell phones, possible signs that they were planning an attack, the army said.
Maybe they were just bird-watchers, out looking for Eagles and Falcons.
The army said terrorist militant groups have recently tried to plant explosives or infiltrate into Israel near Nahal Oz. Palestinians say terrorists farmers wandering into the area have also been whacked targeted. Hundreds of Palestinians, all some of them carrying sex toys weapons, joined the men’s funeral procession through what’s left of Gaza City later Saturday. The men’s ventilated bodies were wrapped in murderous Palestinian flags. One low-rent rabblerouser mourner harrangued addressed the crowd dipping their hands in blood outside a weapons depot mosque, bragging promising to avenge their deaths.
"Dire Revenge™ for all!"

#6  Pretty freaking amusing strikethroughs. Towards the end it gets to be like playing Mad Libs.

#4  They funeral was just hours after the attack? The Isreali's must have identified them and then chucked them back over the wall.

With a catapult.
