According to a World Net Daily report, the attempted stabbing attack at Shilo Junction on Monday was actually an attempted kidnapping that went sour.

Quoting a senior unnamed Fatah source, WND reports the terrorists who was shot dead, a former Chevron resident, was using the knife to kidnap the civilians at the location.

The attack occurred a short time after the IDF began removing area checkpoints as per Israel’s commitment to do so to US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice.
