JPost Reg Req’d, EFL
An Israeli car was fired at south of the Alon highway junction near Kochav Hashahar on Friday. No casualties were reported, but the vehicle was damaged. The shots were fired from the same place where, exactly three weeks ago, Fatah al-Aksa Martyrs Brigades terrorists shot dead Shalom Har-Melech, 25, and seriously wounded his seven months’ pregnant wife.

Early Friday, soldiers in the village of Burkin near Nablus demolished the house of Shadi al-Tubasi, who blew himself up at Matza restaurant in Haifa in March 2002, killing 15 Israelis.
Also Friday, IDF soldiers in the village of Rantis north of Ramallah demolished the house of Iyhad Abed al-Kader abu-Salim, the Hamas suicide bomber responsible for the attack in Tzrifin last week, in which eight soldiers were killed.

Earlier Thursday, Israeli troops in armored vehicles entered the West Bank town of Jenin and an adjacent refugee camp, taking over eight homes and conducting searches, as part of the ongoing military operation in the area.

The IDF imposed a curfew on Jenin and arrested three Islamic Jihad militants. In addition, a major terror attack was thwarted when soldiers detected a GMC jeep in the center of the town, filled with explosives and ready to be used in an attack in the near future, IDF officials said. The soldiers blew the jeep up.

What? No Massacre in Jenin™?

Here's a better idea: Send over Spectre or Spooky to "circle" the place once or twice. That'd do the trick. ;)
