As I said, that's a possibility. They might be stealing an accident's glory, too.
It happened in Israel a few years back that, I think, five or six people were injured in an explosion. Deeper investigation into the cause of the explosion was indicated after both Islamic Jihad and Hamas (I think) took responsibility for the "brave attack on the evil zionist occupiers". Turned out the explosion was due to misfired mortar shell by an Israeli soldier.
Gave me an idea:
Israel has a few hundreds of dead yearly from accidents (road, work, military, etc.) Perhaps the Palestinian organizations can be persuaded to just claim responsibility for those deaths, on a rotating basis. They get to be responsible for dead Jews without lifting a finger, Israel has some peace and quiet, everybody happy.
