Palestinian Jihadist Policeman Who Opened Fire On Jewish Worshippers At Joseph's Tomb Was U.S.-Trained

From Jihad Watch:


Palestinian jihadist policeman who opened fire on Jewish worshippers was U.S.-trained







Shameful. An update on this story. "Barak condemns Nablus shooting; orders IDF probe," by Yaakov Lappin and Tovah Lazaroff for the Jerusalem Post, April 24 (thanks to Pajamas Media):



Defense Minister Ehud Barak strongly condemned the murder of Ben Yosef Livnat and the injury of four others in the Nablus shooting attack early Sunday morning and said that no lack of security coordination can justify the opening of fire at innocent people.

Barak ordered the IDF to investigate the incident and demanded that the Palestinian Authority investigate the shooting swiftly and take all the necessary steps against the shooter.



One Israeli worshiper was killed and four were wounded in Nablus early Sunday morning after their vehicle was shot at by a Palestinian Authority policeman as the group was exiting the city from prayer services held at Joseph's Tomb. Magen David Adom said one person was in serious condition, one in moderate condition and two others in light condition....



MK Danny Danon (Likud) called on the US to reconsider its funding of the Palestinian security forces, as well as the training exercises that it does with them. He passed this request on to Ileana Ros-Lehtinen (R-FL), Chairman of the US House Foreign Affairs Committee.



"As a true friend of Israel, we expect that the objective of this training would be to ensure Israeli security and not to kill its citizens," he said.





One would think.
