Ah, the standard Israeli response:
"If we can't arrest him easily, let's kill him. Why should we
waste time negotiating surrender, he's not a human being with
rights. He's a Palestinian."
In case the moSSad can't figure it out, negotiation takes longer
than five minutes. Or is it because Israel only arrests doctors,
lawyers, teachers, and other people who don't commit violence?

Just as the Israelis violated the truce under the "Roadmap" with
an unprovoked attack on Hamas leaders who *were* abiding by the
truce, they're breaking their promises again, this time not to
bulldoze houses.
Normally, though, when they bulldoze houses, the Palestinians
manage to escape before being murdered by Israeli soldiers. Yet
another example of Israel's policy of "lebensraum".
Maybe the Israelis value the lives of Palestinians so little that
the soldiers didn't feel like missing dinner. Or maybe they were
just following orders.

Palestinian dies when Israelis raze house
Ramallah, West Bank, Mar. 10 (UPI) - - A Palestinian man died in
the West Bank Thursday when Israeli forces bulldozed his home
while he was hiding inside it, Israel Radio reported.
The man, who was buried under the debris of his house, was
suspected of involvement in a suicide bombing which killed four
Israelis in Tel Aviv last month.
The radio said an Israeli commando unit first encircled the
man's house in the village of Wusta near Tul Karem and demanded
that he surrender. When he opened fire at them, the soldiers sent
in a police dog which the man killed.
Later, the troops called in a bulldozer which demolished the
house, killing the man.
Islamic Jihad denounced the killing of the man whom they
identified as Mohammed Abu Khazneh, 20, a member of the group.
A Jihad spokesman, Khoder Habib, accused Israel of seeking to
sabotage the truce declared at the Sharm el-Sheik summit between
Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas and Israeli Prime
Minister Ariel Sharon last month.
"If Israel continues its aggression, the whole truce might
collapse," he said.
