Political Terrorists

Real Names: None of their names were ever revealed

First Appearance: New Warriors (V1) #58

Group Affiliation: Unknown Political Terrorist Group

History: Nothing is known about this political terrorist group prior to their attack on the Prime Minister of Israel, Yitzhak Rabin. Riding with him is none other than Sabra. Just as they arrive at the UN Building, there is an explosion as terrorist make their appearance. The Prime Minister tells Sabra to refrain herself, and to let the American heroes, the New Warriors, to handle the situation.

Justice, Firestar and Speedball are only happy to oblige to stopping the terrorists and their attack. However, just as it seems as if they have defeated the terrorists; through means unknown, the terrorists turn their own powers against the Warriors. While the Warriors remain distracted, another terrorist makes his way to the vehicle of the Prime Minister. When he tears the top of the car open, he’s surprised to see “The Star of David” – and then a punch that sends him soaring into the sky.

Sabra leaps out of the car and begins taking down the terrorists with calculated ease.

Justice, Firestar and Speedball round up the terrorists and bring them to the authorities at the UN Building, where they are greeted by their contact, Mr. Pachiuk. Mr. Pachiuk expresses his doubts about Justice, citing that Captain America had originally been asked, but recommended Justice instead; but after their display, those doubts still lingered in his mind.

Powers: Unknown, but it would appear that each of them was human with no super human powers; however, were equipped with technology that provided them destructive abilities.

I had plans to reveal these terrorists as being Israeli-backed, but ultimately I never found the time in my New Warriors run to revisit this plotline.
