Palestinian crowd frees militants from Bethlehem jail

January 27, 2002, 05:02 PM

BETHLEHEM, West Bank (AFP) - A crowd of more than 100 Palestinians, shouting and cheering, succeeded in releasing seven militants from jail in Bethlehem, including one the men most wanted by Israel.

The crowd released the men from the West Bank town's jail after all but a skeleton crew had left the building, anticipating retaliatory strikes from Israel after a Palestinian suicide bomber killed one Israeli and injured at least 37 others in west Jerusalem.

The seven released included Yahya Daamsa, a member of Yasser Arafat's Fatah group.

Daamsa is one of 33 militants on Israel's most wanted list handed to the Palestinian Authority for immediate arrest during US peace envoy Anthony Zinni's November-December visit to the region, Palestinian security sources said.

<< Do you happen to know what the reward in paradise is for women suicide bombers? >>

They get to share an unwashed, Muslim "diaper head" with 98 other virgins. <g>

<< Maybe the arabs think they can extract more world sympathy with women bombers? >>

Arab men keep their women covered up, but their camels uncovered. I would think that, in this case, an Arab had to chose between spending the night with his covered-up, hairy girlfriend, or with a camel. Her last words, before they forcefully strapped the bomb on her were: " Damn you! I hope that your camel cheats on you with another Arab! And remember, I won't be around to clean the camel dung off you, anymore!"

When I first heard about the bombing and the large number of victims, I was greatly saddened and angered. Fortunately, most injuries were minor.

Question: If Arafat has no control over the Palestinian terrorists, what is the value of holding peace negotiations with him? Isn't he irrelevant, as Sharon states?

Hey!? If Muslims get 99 virgins in Heaven for dying while killing innocent people, then where do they get all those old maids? And, more serious than that, with whom are the Arab men having sex, if all their women remain virgins until they die?

Here's a riddle for you: What is the difference between an Arab and an animal species that evolution screwed up?
