After all, "no injures on either side were reported, eyewitnesses stated". So much for the big bad IDF.

Next (whatever happened to no. 2?): "Army arrest one girl from Nablus ". This "girl" is 22 years old - not a girl by any stretch of the imagination - unless of course she's being arrested by the IDF in which case she would remain classified a child until she's 80. And no innocent little darling either. "IDF forces operating in Nablus apprehend Palestinian woman who planned to carry out a suicide bomb attack". That's the story behind your attention grabbing headline.  http://www.ynetnews.com/articles/0,7340,L-3236933,00.html

And the final indignity: "Soldiers' installed three new checkpoints today around Tubass and its villages, stopping and searching residents, which led to them missing schools and jobs, local sources reported". Well, personally I'd rather have them miss schools and jobs than the Israelis missing lives and limbs.
