(NEWS) US Army-IDF Drill Aims At Mock PA Terrorists

"Joint US Marine-IDF training that began a month ago in Israel has included fighting mock Palestinian Authority terrorists in a simulated PA village. The 'grunts,' as Marines are sometimes called, commented, 'Listen to what the Israelis have to say, because this is their reality every day. And we respect [them] for that.'

The mock attack on terrorists in a mock PA village was staged at night in a desert in southern Israel and reported in the IDF’s BaMahaneh ('In the Camp') magazine.

'The 'Flying Lion' battalion split into two platoons under the command of Israel officers in order to see if we could successfully work together,' said Battalion Commander Lt.-Col. Oren Gil. The soldiers reached the outskirts of the mock Arab village after a six-mile march."
