Now guess what:
Two Jewish settlers were charged with possessing explosives stolen from the army yesterday, allegedly in preparation for a "terrorist attack" on
Palestinian civilians.
Yitzhak Pas and Matityahu Shabo were arrested in mid-July but their detention was kept secret while they were interrogated.
Mr Pas had a 10-month-old daughter, Shalhevet, shot dead by a Palestinian sniper in Hebron two years ago. Mr Shabo is his brother-in-law.
The security service Shin Bet said the two men are suspected of links to a "terror cell" in Hebron held responsible for killing at least eight
Palestinians and for an abortive attempt to blow up a Palestinian school in East Jerusalem last year.
So far they have been charged only with possession of 4kg of explosives stolen from an army base and discovered in their car at a roadblock on the
edge of Jerusalem last month.
