?Suicide? bombings have begun again.

Four young Israelis were murdered Thursday evening in one such attack at a gas station near the Samarian settlement of Kedumim.

The terrorist was an Arab believed to have been dressed as an orthodox Jew.

He had apparently hitched a ride from his Jewish victims before blowing himself up and destroying them and their car.

The Al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades of Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas? Fatah faction claimed responsibility for the attack, which it said was carried out by a 24-year-old Arab from Hebron.

It was the first attack claimed by any group other than the Palestine Islamic Jihad since Hamas and Fatah agreed to observe a ceasefire in February 2005.

And it came just minutes after the final results of Israel?s general election were announced.
