Arabs Gone Wild in Israel

Multiple attacks since Monday, including outside of the Yehuda/Shomron region, put this week's shenanigans at a higher tempo than.... well, whatever passed for "normal" since the end of the Second Intifada in 2005.

Anyone who's been paying attention would say that terrorism has been on the rise since Baruch Mizrachi and Shelly Dadon were murdered in separate incidents 18 months ago. The kidnapping/murder of American citizen Naftali Frenkel and two of his friends led to last year's "Operation Protective Edge" in Gaza, which did almost nothing against the PLO or Hamas in Yehuda/Shomron or among the Arab communities throughout the rest of the country.

I suspect it will only get worse until real leaders who are not afraid of the State Department, the EU or the UN dominate the Knesset.

The mayor of Jerusalem knows how to stop a bad guy with a gun.

(he's even done it, outside of his military service:

Here's hoping law enforcement and the military will get the message faster than in 2000.

Reading the comments in some of your links is very refreshing.
There actually are some very pro-gun, pro 'defend your own self' bastions of society left out there. (Besides those here, of course)

Thank you for your updates and stay safe.

This is A7's list of attacks so far, starting last week. The list is not comprehensive, as it does not include rioting, or rock attacks along Highway 6 near Qalqilya. I'm not going to post a link for every single attack as it happens, but I will post links like this that cover multiple incidents, for big-picture purposes. Thus far, all attacks have occurred in/near Arab neighborhoods (especially within Jerusalem) and cities (e.g. Qalqilya), and in places where Jews and Arabs mix freely (cities in the coastal plain, and in some northern places, like Afula). Note that in most of these attacks outside of the 1949 armistice line, the perpetrators carry Israeli citizenship. We are dealing with a population who want all of the privileges of citizenship, and don't give the smallest hoot about their responsibilities as citizens.

Ladies and Gentlemen, the US Secretary of State

I guess all the noise over here woke up the sleeping giant.

... and this is par for the course.
http://www.israelnationalnews.com/Ne...9#.Vh32ovmqpBc

And this is what the street says about Abbas:
http://www.israelnationalnews.com/Ne...7#.Vh32d_mqpBd




We already know Fatah (and therefore Abbas) openly support the terrorism. There are rumors that they are doing this now because they are desperate for support from their own constituents, and that the PLO may collapse very soon, either in favor of Hamas, the Islamic Movement (mentioned previously in this thread), or someone else.


EDIT: NousDefions, your picture is displaying correctly now. I don't know why it wasn't displaying when I viewed this thread on a different computer.
UPDATED EDIT: The picture displays in Chrome, but not in FireFox.

3. The houses of terrorist will be destroyed and there will be no option to rebuilding them.
4. All property of terrorists will be confiscated.
5. Active police force will be enlarged.
6. 300 additional security will be engaged for protecting public transportation in Jerusalem.
7. Additional police and army units will be deployed in cities and on major roads.
8. Additional army units will be deployed along the green line and work will be done to finish the Fence.

This part sounds like placing one security guard, soldier, or police officer at every bus stop around the city.

UPDATE: Over 1,000 Combat Soldiers Deployed to Jerusalem

The "Islamic Movement" has a face. And it's the face of a criminal who doesn't like to get his hands dirty.

This line from Firefly came to mind when I read his arrest history:
