With all the hardware the IDF has why are they still fighting these terrorists on foot ? Couldn't they call up a few Merkavas or a few attack helicopters and blow those filthy bastards up from a distance ? Why engage them in close combat when you have such hi-tech weapons at your disposal ? So sad to hear about the death of an IDF soldier ! |

According to Ma’an News Agency, Egyptian officials believed that jihadists in the Sinai were planning to attack more Egyptian outposts. Today, a terrorist attack along the Egypt-Israel border was thwarted by the Israel Defense Forces. Terrorists in the Sinai Peninsula opened fire on an IDF patrol in the Mount Sagi area, on the Israel-Egypt border, at around noon Friday. Heavy exchanges of fire ensued, during which the terrorists were killed. According to an initial investigation, three terrorists approached the border with Israel near the Carmit outpost, situated south of Mount Harif, at a point where the border fence remains incomplete. The terrorists were equipped with explosive belts and assault rifles. The three opened fire on Artillery Corps soldiers who were securing civilians building the border fence. According to an IDF spokesperson, the battalion “that neutralized the three terrorists is a combined male-female infantry battalion,” known as Karakal. Update: The BBC reports that Israeli medics have said that "a number of Israeli soldiers have been injured" in the incident. IDF Spokesman Brig.-Gen. Yoav Mordechai has said that "a very large attack" was stopped. A Senior officer in the IDF has said that the attack took place in an area where the border fence is still not erect. |

Remember, those are designed as trigger words to instill fear, and allow for tptb to do their dirty work. There is also the option of using words like "alleged." |
