A Palestinian suicide bomber struck yesterday at a restaurant beside a shopping mall in Petach Tikvah, near Tel Aviv.

The restaurant is a popular place for small children. Among the murdered was an 18-month old girl and her grandmother.

Credit for the attack was claimed by the Al-Asqa Martyrs Brigade, a branch of the Fatah movement. Two weeks ago, Arafat praised the Al-Asqa Martyrs Brigade as heroes.

Who are the terrorists?
