Israel Launches Rare Arrest Raid in Gaza

Israeli commandos Saturday stormed into southern Gaza, scaled the walls of a home, and nabbed two wanted Palestinian murderers. The army said they were members of the Islamic militant group, Hamas, who were planning a major attack against Israel. Hamas now controls the Palestinian Authority, but Israeli spokesman Ra’anan Gissin says that does not mean that the group has immunity. “You can rest assured that we will pay house calls to anyone who is involved in terrorist activity, that these crimes against humanity conducted by the official Palestinian government will not go unanswered,” he said.
