Palestinian killed in Gaza blast

JERUSALEM — Palestinian officials in the Gaza Strip said one person was killed Monday in an explosion along Gaza's northern border with Israel.

The cause of the blast was unclear, and medical teams were removing the remains of the dead.

The Democratic Front for the Liberation of Palestine, a small militant faction, said the dead man was a militant who was killed in an Israeli airstrike as he was carrying out his "national duties."

The Israeli military said it was not involved. Army officials said they believed explosives detonated as militants tried to plant a bomb.

1. Premature Detonation?

I do not understand why the DFLP want to give Israel any credit for taking out a terrorist? If anything, they should be inclined to downplay Israel's effectiveness.

2. Need to rethink their QA program. nt

3. They need to renounce terrorism

That would drop work-place accident rates down to next to zero.

4. Renounce? They embrace terrorism nt
