Right-wing 'bomb' in Jerusalem
http://www.ynetnews.com/articles/0,7340,L-3111281,00.html

12 kg ‘bomb’ apparently placed by anti-pullout activists found in men’s bathroom of Jerusalem's central bus station; government ministers say event ‘crosses red line’

<snip>

"A 12 kilogram (26.4 pound) fake bomb with a note reading, "Disengagement will blow up in our faces" attached to it was discovered in the Jerusalem central bus station Monday evening, causing widespread panic and forcing police to clear the three-story building while sappers investigated the incident.

The package, consisting of an alarm clock, wires, and gas balloon, was apparently placed by anti-disengagement protesters. It was discovered at around 7:30 p.m."

<snip>

"Jerusalem police officials blasted the fake bomb, after dozens of officers rushed to the scene to maintain order as thousands of people filed out of the station.

Jerusalem Police Chief Ilan Franco said the incident marks an escalation in right-wing anti-pullout protest.

“I hope the escalation ends here. I call on the perpetrators to stop it now,” he said."

2. they trying....
but if you will note.....they are not suceeding....they've tried all kinds of tactics but the israeli public isnt buying it, more so we're letting the police and other security forces do their jobs.

best part is the actual exposure that the israeli extremists are now getting, put in jail, humiliated, having their bluffs being called....after a very long period of giving them too much rope, its now being pulled in.

hope the PA is taking notes....

4. Soldiers arrested for J'lem device
http://www.ynetnews.com/articles/0,7340,L-3114513,00.html

Police arrest two ultra-orthodox soldiers for suspicion of planing fake device in Jerusalem's central bus station; device caused massive delays, came with anti-pullout note

<snip>

"Police arrested two soldiers from an ultra-Orthodox unit (Nahal Haredi) Monday, both in their 20s, for suspicion of planting a fake device in Jerusalem’s central bus station last week.

The two soldiers were taken into custody Monday afternoon, and the Jerusalem Magistrates Court extended their remand Monday evening.

If they indeed planted the device, their act would be the first time that religious soldiers opposed to the pullout crossed the line from order refusal to active attempts to destroy the disengagement plan.

The soldiers were arrested by officers from the central Jerusalem police station, and are being questioned by both police and military police. Police officials say they have refused to speak."

5. Another fake bomb found
http://www.ynetnews.com/articles/0,7340,L-3114905,00.html

Once again police sappers called to disarm dummy bomb placed by anti-pullout protesters, this time at Geha junction near Tel Aviv

<snip>

"A fake bomb was found late Monday at the Geha junction near Tel Aviv with a note attached reading, "A Jew doesn't expel a Jew."

Police forces promptly cleared the area and called in sappers to examine the device. Previously, pullout objectors planted fake bombs in bus and train stations."

<snip>

"Police received a report close to midnight that a suspicion bag had been left at the Geha junction near the largely religious town of Bnei Brak.
Sappers were called to the scene and police cleared the area, while a robot was sent to open the bag.

A small gas balloon and note reading, "A Jew doesn't expel a Jew" was found inside.

Once the sappers realized the device was fake, the junction was reopened for traffic and the criminal identification unit was called in to look for any possible clues."
