IDF virginizes Islamic Jihad's Jenin terror honcho

In a move that should surprise no one paying attention, Israeli security forces took out Noor Beitawi, the head honcho of Palestinian Islamic Jihad’s terrorist network in Jenin, in a Nablus operation on Friday. 

The IDF didn’t mince words, calling Beitawi the mastermind behind a slew of terrorist plots, bankrolling and orchestrating attacks on Israeli civilians and security personnel like it was his day job. Apparently, he was also cozy with Hamas bigwigs in Gaza and beyond, because why not network with the worst of the worst?

The IDF laid it out: Beitawi was funneling cash to terror cells in Jenin and nearby villages, recruiting goons, arming them to the teeth, and overseeing a bomb-making operation aimed at Israeli soldiers. This guy wasn’t just a cog in the machine—he was the whole darn engine. Wanted for months, he tried to pull a fast one, fleeing Jenin for Nablus after a counter-terrorism op in northern Samaria. Spoiler alert: it didn’t work out for him.

Thanks to some sharp intel from the Shin Bet, Israeli forces tracked Beitawi to a hideout in Nablus, surrounded the place, and sent him and another terrorist to the great beyond. “Israeli security forces will continue to act against terrorism in Judea and Samaria to ensure the security of Israeli citizens,” the IDF said, sounding like they mean business. 

Since “Operation Iron Wall” kicked off on Jan. 21, the IDF’s been on a tear, taking out over 100 terrorists, nabbing 320 wanted suspects, and seizing 450 weapons in Judea and Samaria. They’ve also dismantled hundreds of IEDs, pipe bombs, and blown up bomb labs and weapons caches like it’s a demolition derby. Since the Hamas-led atrocity fest on Oct. 7, 2023, Israeli forces have neutralized over 700 terrorists in the region, including 36 high-ranking dirtbags from various terror groups. 

Meanwhile, the hits keep coming. On Thursday, terrorists pelted an Israeli car and bus with rocks near Na’ama in the Jordan Valley, lightly injuring a baby. A baby. Let that sink in. The infant got medical attention on-site, but the sheer gall of these attacks is enough to make your blood boil. Just a day earlier, two people were seriously wounded in a terrorist attack near the Reihan Crossing, and in the Hebron Hills, another genius tried to ram Israeli troops before coming at them with a knife. He’s not around to tell the tale.

According to Rescuers Without Borders, Palestinian terrorists targeted Israeli Jews in Judea and Samaria a staggering 6,343 times in 2024. That’s not a typo. Twenty-seven Israelis were murdered, and over 300 were wounded. This isn’t a game—it’s a relentless war on civilians, and Israel’s not sitting back sipping coffee while it happens. Keep swinging, IDF.
