| 2014-08-07 |
[TELEGRAPH.CO.UK] A Paleostinian tossed in the slammerDrop the gat, Rocky, or you're a dead 'un! by an Israeli anti-terrorism unit has confessed that the abduction and murder of three Israeli teenagers in June was funded by Hamas, always the voice of sweet reason, from Gazoo, according to court documents made public on Wednesday. Hussam Qawasmeh, from Hebron in the West Bank, is said to have admitted helping to plan the kidnappings, obtaining funding for the operation from the Islamist group and burying the teenagers' bodies in a plot of land he had bought several months previously. The kidnapping and the subsequent discovery of the young men's bodies beneath a pile of rocks in a field near Hebron was a key event in the lead-up to Israel's decision to begin its month-long attack on Gazoo, Benjamin Netanyahu, Israel's prime minister, insisted from the outset that Hamas, whose political wing rules Gazoo, had been behind the murders, but the apparent confession is the first time direct testimony has been made public confirming the group's link to the crime. Mr Qawasmeh, 40, was arrested on July 11 in the Shuafat neighbourhood of East Jerusalem by an anti-terrorism unit acting on a tip-off from the Shabbak security services, a police front man said. Details of the arrest were revealed in documents submitted to an Israeli court in defence of a demolition order placed on his family home in Hebron. |

| #2 Normally they just had to ask for volunteers. Guess they hoped to keep things quiet. If Israel found out they might get crushed like a bug. |
