Targeted Israeli air strike kills Palestinian in Gaza Strip

An Israeli airstrike killed a Palestinian and wounded another in the Gaza Strip today, medics said, in the first targeted attack against militants since a ceasefire ended an eight-day war in November.
An Israeli government spokesman said the military had hit a jihadi who was an expert in manufacturing rockets.
He said the man had played a role in a rocket attack launched from Egypts Sinai peninsula against Israels Red Sea resort of Eilat on April 17th, which had caused no damage or injuries.
The Irish Times takes no responsibility for the content or availability of other websites.
Militant Jihadist
Locals in Gaza named the dead man as Haitham Al-Mes-hal (29), saying he was hit while riding a motorcycle in the north of the enclave. He was believed to be a member of Hamass national security force, but relatives said he also belonged to a militant Jihadist Salafi organisation.
Islamist militants in Gaza have fired intermittently at Israel in recent weeks despite an Egyptian-brokered ceasefire reached after the November conflict.
Hamas, an Islamist group close to the Muslim Brotherhood which now rules neighbouring Egypt, has cracked down on hardline Salafist rivals it sees as jeopardising its control of the Gaza Strip.
It was not immediately clear whether todays strike would unleash a renewed round of violence. The attack came just two days after prime minister Binyamin Netanyahu had warned of a strong response to sporadic rocket fire into Israel.

Israel uses airstrike in response to rockets fired from Gaza Strip
JERUSALEM Israel responded to rockets fired from the Gaza Strip with airstrikes on sites used by Islamic militant group Hamas, which rules the Palestinian territory, the military said on Sunday.
It said its jets struck “a terrorist weapon storage facility and a Hamas training installation” after rockets landed in southern Israel the night before. It also closed a closed a key border crossing with the territory. Gaza health officials said nobody was hurt in the strikes.
On Saturday, thousands of Israelis had been outside in parks and forests celebrating the Jewish holiday of Lag Baomer with traditional bonfires. The rockets exploded in open areas and caused no injuries.
Rocket fire from Gaza has declined since a military campaign in November, before which militants were firing rockets on an almost daily basis and launching other attacks on Israeli towns across the border. Sporadic fire still persists however.
The military said it “will not tolerate any attempt to harm Israeli civilians” and that it will not allow the situation to return to where it stood before the November campaign.
Israel holds Gaza’s militant Hamas rulers responsible for all attacks from the territory. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said after the attack that the perpetrators will “pay a heavy price.” Speaking at a government meeting Sunday, Netanyahu said he will “not allow a policy of sporadic fire” to continue. He said such fire will be met with a “very strong” response.
No group claimed responsibility for the attacks.
A shadowy extremist Muslim Salafi group has been behind recent attacks in the area, including one last month where rockets were fired from Egypt’s Sinai Peninsula.
Hamas sees the Salafis as a threat to its rule and routinely arrest members of the ultraconservative movement in Gaza. Salafis view even Hamas’s hardline interpretation of Islamic law as too moderate and the two groups have clashed violently in the past.
Along with the airstrikes, Israel responded to Saturday’s rocket fire by closing the Kerem Shalom crossing with Gaza. It said another terminal will be open for humanitarian cases.

G4S divests Israel West Bank operations
Britain’s G4S plc (LSE: GFS; OMX: G4S), the world’s largest security services company in terms of revenue, has confirmed it is planning to quit key contracts in Israel amid protests against its involvement in settlements within occupied Palestinian territories,” the “Financial Times” reported today.
“Financial Times” adds, “The company employs 6,000 people in Israel, where it provides and maintains screening equipment for several West Bank military checkpoints. It also manages security systems at the controversial Ofer Prison in the Occupied West Bank. But with sporadic international protests continuing both outside the FTSE 100s headquarters in London and internationally, the company said it would exit the contracts covering Ofer, the checkpoints and the West Bank police headquarters when they terminate in 2015.”
“Financial Times” reports, “Last week, 19 non-government organizations from Egypt, Lebanon, Jordan and Palestine called on Arab nations and the European Union to stop dealing with G4S. The Scottish Trades Union Congress also voted on Tuesday to support Palestinian calls for a boycott of the multinational.”
Having conducted a review in 2011, we concluded that, to ensure that G4S Israel business practices remain in line with our own business ethics policy, we would aim to exit the contracts which involve the servicing of security equipment at a small number of barrier checkpoints, a prison and a police station in the West Bank area, G4S told the “Financial Times”.
It adds, “The move will nevertheless disappoint protesters, who have called on G4S to end all dealings with the Israeli prison authorities. The security company will continue to service security systems in commercial and government sites inside Israel, including jails housing Palestinian inmates, after 2015.”
G4S operates in Israel through four business divisions for technology security and physical security of sites with guards. “The group earned 100 million in sales at its Israeli operations last year. But the division accounts for just 1% of global revenues, and 1% of profits at the global group, which employs 625,000 people in 125 countries,” says the “Financial Times”.
“Financial Times” says that G4S has established a risk committee and is conducting more formal reviews of the operational and reputational dangers of contracts worth more than 20 million. It has also stated its ambition to offload underperforming parts of the business.
The newspaper quotes Jeffries analyst Kean Marden as saying, G4S Israel may be next to be divested? The Israel/Palestine conflict has created reputational issues. In our view the potential disposal of G4S Israel could be announced as soon as the 25 June capital markets day.”
G4S said in response, “These are decisions made more than two years ago, and there has been no change in the decision since then.

Egyptian army destroys smuggling tunnel to Gaza Strip
CAIRO, April 14 (UPI) — The Egyptian army identified and destroyed a tunnel used by smugglers to gain access to the Gaza Strip, military officials said Sunday.
The tunnel, 16 feet wide and 9 feet deep, was being used to smuggle vehicles into the Hamas-controlled Gaza Strip, Egypt Independent said. Its destruction was said to anger Hamas leaders, who rely heavily on smuggling in goods from Egypt as a way to get around a long-instituted Israeli blockade.
The army made the announcement on its official Facebook page, where it posted a video clip of the demolition.

Palestinian Support for Hamas Plunges in West Bank and Gaza
Palestinians rally to mark the 48th anniversary of the founding of the Fatah movement (Reuters)
Support for Gaza’s Islamist ruling party Hamas has dropped sharply in the aftermath of Israel’s Operation Pillar of Defence, according to a poll by a Palestinian thinktank.
The overwhelming majority of Palestinians living in the occupied West Bank and Gaza – 90 percent out of 1,179 people interviewed in March – think that Hamas and its more moderate counterpart, Fatah, should reconcile themselves to each other, the Jerusalem Media and Communications Centre (JMCC) poll found.
The survey also revealed a softening of support for rocket attacks launched from the Gaza Strip into Israel. In December, shortly after a peace deal brokered by Egypt and advertised as a sweeping victory by Hamas, support for such attacks stood at 74 percent. In the March poll, it slumped to 38.4 percent.
Support for Hamas has decreased significantly – from 28.2 percent in December to 20.6 percent in March – a figure closer to support the movement enjoyed in past polls.
Just over 80 percent support non-violent means of resistance and a clear majority of 60.2 percent consider that military operations harm the Palestinian national interests.
Hamas and Fatah are about to revive reconciliation talks in Cairo. Palestinian Authority president Mahmoud Abbas and Hamas leader Khaled Mashaal are scheduled to meet to discuss forming a unity government and holding presidential and parliamentary elections in the occupied West Bank and Gaza.
A recent report by New York-based Human Rights Watch (HRW) has slammed Hamas for failing to investigate the killings of seven Palestinians accused of collaborating with Israel. The case sparked public outrage during the eight-day conflict in November as the men were shot in public and the body of one was dragged by a motorcycle through the streets.
“Hamas’s inability or unwillingness to investigate the brazen murders of seven men makes a mockery of its claims that it’s upholding the rule of law in Gaza,” said Sarah Whitson, Middle East director of HRW.
“Even before the killings, the abuses the men suffered made the criminal justice system a travesty, regardless of their guilt or innocence.”

At a West Bank seder, Jews commemorate a modern quest for freedom
The seder plate on the table is traditional matzah, sweet charoset, a simple hard-boiled egg but its location in an apartment in the de facto West Bank capital is not.
As Jews around the world gathered to celebrate Passover, a holiday commemorating the ancient Hebrews’ liberation from enslavement in the land of Egypt, a small group have joined together in the Palestinian city of Ramallah. Here the seder, or Passover meal, is being done a bit differently.
Eight Jews and Palestinians have gathered to read from several alternative Haggadahs the ritual text read during the meal which emphasize the need for equality and liberation for all people. In addition to the standard symbolic fare on the seder plate is an orange to represent gender equality and olives to show solidarity with Palestinians.
The main message of Passover is that we, as Jews, are free, says a Jewish Canadian who asked to be called Josh because his Israeli work visa does not allow him to live in Ramallah. Its taking this message of freedom, which is the main theme of the seder freedom from slavery of the Israelites in Egypt and applying that freedom story to other people.
At the meal, Josh reads from an alternative Haggadah: For slavery to be truly over for a people to be truly free we must know we can feed ourselves and our children today, tomorrow and into future generations. In Palestine, olive groves provide that security.”
RECOMMENDED: How much do you know about Israel? Take the quiz
Palestinian olive trees are sometimes scorched by Israeli settlers or bulldozed by the Israeli army.
When olive groves are destroyed, the past and future is destroyed, Josh continues. We eat an olive to make real our understanding of what it means each time a bulldozer ploughs up a grove. Without the taste of olives, there will be no taste of freedom.
AN AWAKENING
Josh says he learned his support for Israel alongside Jewish culture and religious practice. By the time he was in high school, his backing was so staunch that he asked his cousin, who had immigrated to Israel, to send him an Israeli flag. He hung it in his family’s living room a symbol of his connection to a country he had never visited.
