U.S. officials believe that the militants may have planned to assault passengers at the check-in lines or down a plane with a shoulder-fired missile...

...longer content to indulge Abbas's efforts to deal with the militant groups by negotiation and consensus, Israel has resumed direct military activity in Palestinian cities designed to eliminate their operatives. The Israelis underscored their contempt for Abbas's path of negotiating with Hamas by their choice of target - Ismail Abu-Shanab, killed by a rocket attack on his car in Gaza, was the very Hamas leader with whom Abbas had negotiated the "hudna" truce agreement. Israel?s message to Abbas was clear: Either you destroy Hamas, or we will. And Hamas and Islamic Jihad - and surely, also...
