Two Jerusalem Arabs Jailed for Plotting to Kidnap IDF Soldiers
(Ha'aretz) Nir Hasson - Two Arab residents of Jerusalem were jailed for two years Wednesday after admitting to conspiring to kidnap Israeli soldiers. Ayad Avid and Abdullah Avid from Issawiyah planned to use a tractor to ram a military jeep before kidnapping the soldiers inside at gunpoint. The two were also found guilty of setting fire to a ballot box during local Jerusalem elections last year, when they threatened a panel of electoral supervisors, removed a ballot box and set it alight outside.
