Israel torments Palestinian town
http://english.aljazeera.net/NR/exeres/BBF07D91-B557-4504-B192-4BF6FC7A149F.htm

"The Israeli army has destroyed the basic water and electricity infrastructure of a small Palestinian town in north Hebron, leaving parts of it in huge piles of rubble.

Speaking from the town on Thursday, Aljazeera.net's correspondent said the destructive effects of the latest Israeli incursion were visible everywhere.

"The main power transformer was badly damaged and so was the town's water grid, leaving the town's 15,000 inhabitants without electricity or water.
"The deliberate, wanton vandalism is apparently meant to wreak havoc on the town and humiliate its populace."

"However, an Israeli army spokesman said troops had to carry out a security operation in Bait Umar to combat terror - but would not explain why this meant destroying basic services."
