If the strip-searches start, there will be international howls of protest. But what else can be done in the face of this? From YNET, with thanks to Gabrielle Goldwater:
NABLUS - Troops searching a West Bank house for a wanted Hamas gunman found his sister hiding his gun in her underpants, the army said, adding that it would consider renewing strip-searches among Palestinian women when searching and screening for potential terrorists.The soldiers in the Balata refugee camp, a terrorist hotbed, found the gunman inside his house and ordered him to surrender his weapon. He refused, saying he didn't have it. After questioning, they found the man's sister had hidden it her underwear.
Troops then arrested the Hamas terrorist. They also found a gun holster and bullets inside the building.
An army spokesman said the incident raises serious questions about the need to search Palestinian women, mainly at checkpoints.
"Until now we have gone easy on women," a spokesman said. "Perhaps we need to reconsider that policy."
One of the few areas where Palestinian women have attained equality.
Is that a gun in your knickers or are you just misunderstanding Islam?
Puts a whole new slant on Today we have Naming of Parts.

Which in her case she has not got.
Interested-
LOL!
A good twist on the old "Is that a gun in your pocket or are you just happy to see me?" line!
But I know what her lawyers' excuse will be:
"Your honor, this poor, unfortunate young girl was simply unable to afford a proper clitorectomy, and was just trying to do it herself when these shameless Zionists burst in and prevented my client from performing that sacred operation on her own. Now, admittedly, the slug from a luger is not the optimal method of excising this 'organ of temptation', but, in this impoverished community, one must make do with the tools at hand. I ask for a dismissal under Sharia law! And damages against these soldiers for embarassing her. And for chuckling at the designs on her undies! Yes, they were printed with little images of pink camels dancing with the prophet Mohammad (pbuh), but that is irrelevant, immaterial and inadmissable!"
Not a big deal just one: use a metal detector two: There are plenty of female troops in IDF to do the search on femals.
But they still add it to their imaginative "case" against Israel.
Mae West and Henry Reed, together again at last.
Long live the English delegation.
It's not the infidels in our lives, it's the life in our infidels.
No surprise, really- the Palestinians have already used an ambulance to try and secretly transport weapons. Wonder if the sister ever saw "Goodfellas"?.
When occupying New Orleans during the Civil War, Gen. Benjamin Butler issued an order that all women behaving in a disrespectful way to the Union troops would be arrested as soliciting prostitutes. It cleaned up the problem quickly.
Maybe some Israeli general should meet with the clerics and PA folks and say, "Look, since you're hiding weapons in women's underwear, expect us to look--and if we find, we'll perform the honor killing for you."
I'm sure that the Israeli military is a very reliable source for this claim...
Oh, you are, Shurki? Me too. Especially as you can't illustrate how they're lying. Bring your 'proofs', please. Thanks.
Speaking of 'reliable sources', what do you think about a merchant from Mecca that used to go into epileptic fits before he received his 'revelations', and then started changing them to suit his needs? What if this same guy never created any miracles? Reliable, or not reliable?

The Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him never had any epileptic fits.
His miracles by the grace of God are numerous and well documented

Either way, this story coming from a lone Israeli military spokesperson is highly suspicious in my opinion.

I'm afraid you're wrong on all three accounts:
Bukhari records that he would experience a
- ringing in his ears vol.1:1;4:438
- his heart beat rapidly vol.1:3
- his face would turn red vol. 2 ch.16 (after no.610); vol.5:618;
- he breathed heavily vol.6:508 p.476,
- he fell on the ground with both eyes open toward the sky vol.5:170;6:448,
- he sweat profusely vol.1:2;2:544;3:829
- he saw and heard things no one else did vol.1:2,3 vol.4:458,461; vol.6:447.
These are signs of epilepsy.
His "well-documented miracles" are provided by the same guy who acredited himself with casting no shadow and being able to control the motions of the moon.
Besides the very long chains of isnad, and the dubious level of "preternatural knowledge" therein (thus, not being terribly reliable or miraculous), I note from your link: Al-Bukhari narrated from Ibn `Umar (ra): "We kept away from conversation and leisurely talk to our women lest some revelation come down concerning us. After the Prophet died we spoke more freely."
Well, well. It seems he had a habit of spying on people. Advantageous revelation, anyone?
I'm far more suspicious of your stories: for have you not already said that you would introduce sharia even by force?
Geoff
Geoff-
So Mohammad cast no shadow! (And liked the moon!)
That explains everything!
The guy was a vampire!
It's all falling into place and becoming clear now!
Of course...
(But then, maybe the Shiites will say he was a werewolf.)

LOL. Good one.
"Until now we have gone easy on women," a spokesman said. "Perhaps we need to reconsider that policy."
Reconsider. Reconsider asap.
Good comeback, Geoff.
Yeah, Shukri, the "palestinians" would NEVER do anything so disgusting, would they?
They WANT the IDF to go to strip searches. They WANT it so bad, they can taste it. That way, they can broadcast to the whole goddammed umma that "Jew Soldiers Are Stripping Palestinian Women!!!"
They should be arrested for prostitution, because they are whoring for the "palestinian" jihadis.
Used to be, the IDF would only search the men... then women started smuggling arms and bombs, so they started searching women... now women are going to start hiding bombs in the vulva until the IDF start searching inside them too... the next step is to pack explosives under a baby and blow up the baby and some Israelis, then the IDF will have to search every baby. At every increase in security, 10 million more Muslims dedicate their lives to destroying Israel.
Israel, when will you figure it out? Finish the wall, close the border, and let the "palstinians" create their own low-wage jobs, on THEIR side of the wall.
Strange that their women are as fanatic as the men. Perhaps Shurki can explain to us what sort of rewards await them in Muhammads bordello in the sky? If their men get 72 virgins and 24 liquid eyed boys what is it that these females can expect when they blow themselves to pieces? Are they to be voyeurs or just what sort of role has Allah reserved for them?
Really curious...
OUUUHHH. As for my part on the War On Terror, I will gladly volunteer to search the underware of Islamic women! I will even do deep cavity probes at no extra charge. I have the right bio-instrament for such a probe. But only on the sexy women, the ugly ones can be searched and probed by police dogs.
Such a " job " would make one soon forget about a mere seventy-two virgins. They will be lined up with smiles under their veils waiting for me to search them.
