    Palestinian suicide bomber results in Jerusalem

    A suicide bomber detonated explosives either on or near a Jerusalem bus stopped at the "Mahane Yehuda" market. The open-air market was crowded as shoppers bought groceries in anticipation of the Jewish Sabbath, which began at sundown.

    "The bus stopped and an explosion took place on the right side of the bus, windows smashed, fruit and vegetables were spread all over," a tour guide who witnessed the blast told CNN. "It was all black where the explosion was... then I saw people with no head and no arms."

    The Al Aqsa Martyrs Brigades, a military wing of Arafat's Fatah movement, claimed responsibility for Friday's bombing in telephone calls to news organizations. The Al Aqsa spokesman said the bomber was a young woman. After the bombing, Muslims worldwide demonstrated in support of Arafat.

    At least 6 dead Israeli shoppers and more than 90 wounded as a result of the weapons-grade explosives used by the Arab terrorist with the goal of murdering as many Israeli citizens as possible.

    I'm sure the IDF tanks showed respect to the Muslims in the WB during the holy day of Friday.

    No, they don't need to. Arafat and the PA wanted a war. Arafat and the PA started a war in September 2000. Suicide bombers have been around since just after Oslo in 1993.

    Unfortunately some will get through. It's our hope that the IDF's just incursion into Judea and Samaria wipes them out and uncovers their caches of weapons and explosives, preventing future occurrences of such acts of depravity, put into use by the Arabs years before any of the IDF's tanks or troops went back into Areas A and B.

    But we all know the Arab leaders will no doubt even after any agreements are ever made regarding a Palestinain state, that bombings will continue. Look at the recent money raising telethon held. All those people donated that money for the future suicide bombers. The incursion into those cities was only a temporary thing.

    How right you are! For those of you that don't know, maco is referring to the just raised $100 million dollars or so by Saudi Arabia.

    Sure enough, here's an official Saudi Arabian comment - no, poem, actually - on suicide bombers:
