#1 Five masked men broke into a hospital Monday and shot dead a convicted Palestinian collaborator who had been wounded in a grenade attack in his prison cell just hours earlier.

A grenade attack in prison. Nice to know that serving time isn't the only punishment someone in a Palestinian "prison" can expect.

Assassinations like that of Mahmoud al Sharef, accused of helping Israel, are relatively common. But this one came amid growing lawlessness in the Palestinian territories that has highlighted police helplessness to rein in violence.

"Growing" lawlessness? Haahahahahaha, puhhhlease.

#3 "Collaborator" == hero and martyr, perhaps.

#4 The barrier seems to be having an additional effect in denying the Palestinians their violence fix. This sort of "house-cleaning" will continue in the absence of other murderous sport and should easily occupy these thugs for some time as they continue to kill anyone whom the least treason can be pinned upon, which is pretty much all of them.

It's sort of ironic to see how all of these world-class stone throwers have ended up living in glass houses. Israelis can sleep easier tonight knowing that the Palestinians are far too busy falling on each others' swords to go out and bomb anyone.
