BEIT SAHUR, West Bank, Feb. 18 — The news broadcast over Israeli radio this morning was stunning: The Israeli Army had arrested three women, calling them terrorists primed for suicide bombings. One of them was apparently the first Christian would-be suicide bomber.
But even as the reports were still being broadcast, the Christian suspect, Fida Misleh, 23, was already back home, having been taken to an army base in her pajamas, interrogated and released to catch a bus. Her father, Khalil Misleh, a gardener in a convent here, had been taken in and released with her. http://www.nytimes.com/2003/02/19/international/middleeast/19MIDE.html
