Police: Ambulance network smuggled PA officers into Israel

Police have uncovered a network that smuggled Palestinian Authority officers, including members of PA Chairman Yasser Arafat's elite Force 17 personal protection unit, into Israel in fake ambulances.

Police said it is possible the ring has also smuggled terrorists into Israel using the same method.

One individual has thus far been arrested in connection to the case and police said additional arrests are expected.

Ma'aleh Adumim police recently arrested a resident of Azzariyeh, who holds a blue Israeli identity card, suspected of posing as an ambulance driver and infiltrating into Israel dozens of Palestinians disguised as sick patients.

3. Be That As It May, Sir

It is more than likely such activity occurs. It is a pretty standard ruse de guerre, and the operational needs of smuggling operatives and even equipment past check-points would surely suggest it soon enough to anyone seriously interested in succeeding at such a necessary task. There is no reason whatever to suppose the various militant bodies would shrink from the technique.

"The fascists shot routinely at our ambulances, as we did at theirs. No one scrupled about moving ammunition in an ambulance."

4. It may just be...

given the number of recent explosions inside the green line, which would be....none. All of which point to an obfuscation to deflect attention from the latest IDF jamboree that occurred in Rafah.

IOW, everyones credibility is in the shitter.

We can certainly agree. These peoples are at war, and so the truth is the last thing that will be publicly uttered....
