VICTIM OF HAR NOF SYNAGOGUE ATTACK DIES

It's very sad, but a man who survived the attack last year in Har Nof yet wound up in a coma has now died from injuries he'd sustained earlier:

Almost one year after he was severely injured in the attack in the Har Nof Synagogue in Jerusalem, Chaim Yechiel Rothman succumbed to his wounds and passed away.

Rothman, 54 years old, had been in a coma since the attack. He was the sixth victim, including four who were killed in the attack and a Druze police officer who died one day later. He made aliyah to Israel from Toronto, Canada in 1985. Four other people besides Rothman were injured in the attack, and two policemen were injured in the ensuing battle with the terrorists.

It's terrible that he couldn't even wake from his coma, and now lost his life completely.

COURT'S DELAY OF DESTRUCTION FOR TERRORIST HOUSES ISN'T HELPFUL

The high court again caused anger by agreeing to delay the demolition of 7 houses belonging to terrorists:

Right-wing politicians were infuriated on Thursday following a High Court of Justice ruling earlier in the day to delay demolishing the homes of several terrorists involved in attacks in Jerusalem and Judea and Samaria that claimed the lives of Naama and Eitam Henkin, Malachi Rosenfeld and Danny Gonen.

"We demolished a terrorist's home three days ago," Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said. "Now we have a policy of exacting a price from suicide attackers, because the suicide attacker is after all dead, it's reasonable to assume that he knows he will die, but we know this is one of the more effective tools. Our problem is the disconnect between the act and the result of the act. Therefore we are specifically requesting to minimize the length of time [to obtain a demolition order], and I hope the High Court will also make its ruling, whatever it is, as quickly as possible, although it is better it rules quickly rather than take its time. If they decide, and they usually decide to demolish, it's preferable to do so near the time of the [terrorist] act, within a matter of days rather than weeks or months."

Immigrant Absorption Minister Zeev Elkin (Likud) urged the High Court "not to drag its feet and immediately convene new hearings over the demolishing of terrorists' homes that the court suspended today. High Court judges also need to understand that we are in a war against terrorism, and a democracy that doesn't know how to defend itself cannot win this war. Preventing the next attack by generating deterrence, in the form of razing terrorists' homes, is the order of the day, and it's inconceivable that the High Court is [obstructing] cabinet decisions."

Tourism Minister Yariv Levin (Likud) said that "the High Court has once again managed to break its own record for absurdity, and with a decision that is borderline delusional. It is handcuffing the security forces and the government at the height of a terrorism wave. The time has come for High Court judges to understand that their job is to protect the Israeli public and not those who seek to murder us."

Haim Shine says that deterrence should not be undermined, and indeed no, it most definitely should not. The "families" of the jihadists are guilty on their own part for indoctrinating, allowing indoctrination, and they have to recognize that if they don't obey the laws, they cannot be surprised if they'll end up losing houses they don't deserve.

EVEN BEIT SHEMESH IS VULNERABLE TO TERRORISTS

The latest knifing attack occurred in Beit Shemesh, in a very Haredi section of the city:

A stabbing attack occurred several minutes before 8:00 a.m. outside a synagogue on the corner of Yehezkel and Habakuk HaNavi Streets in Beit Shemesh, west of Jerusalem.

A haredi youth was lightly-to-moderately injured with multiple stab wounds to the upper body.

Magen David Adom paramedics treated the injured victim on the scene, before evacuating him to Hadassah Medical Center in Jerusalem. Several other people in the area are being treated for shock.

The two Arab terrorists who attacked the victim were neutralized. Both terrorists were brought to the trauma unit at Hadassah Ein Kerem - one later succumbed to his wounds while the other is in critical condition.

According to police, both terrorists were wearing t-shirts bearing the symbol of the Izz ad-Din al-Qassam Brigades, the military wing of Islamist terror movement Hamas.

An initial police investigation found that the two terrorists had tried to board a bus carrying children on Yehezkel Street in Ramat Beit Shemesh, but stopped after the children aboard yelled at them.

After receiving reports of two suspicious men in the area, Beit Shemesh police arrived on the scene and witnessed the two terrorists stabbing a man near the bus station. They reacted quickly, firing on the terrorists and neutralizing them.

More news over here. And the Haredi basket cases in that city had the gall to declare the female sex a problem no matter how they dress, instead of men who adhere to fascist ideologies? It's that precise ignorance that enabled those jihadists to infiltrate. Thank goodness the two evil men were stopped before any serious disaster could've taken place.

2 INJURED IN GUSH ETZION CAR ATTACK

Today's horrible intifada recordings include this incident in Gush Etzion:

Two people were injured Tuesday in a Palestinian Arab terror attack that took place at the main junction in Gush Etzion on Highway 60.

The terrorist "attempted to ram his car into pedestrians waiting at a bus stop in the Gush Etzion junction," the IDF said in a statement.

"The attacker then left his car and attempted to stab the pedestrians. A civilian and soldier were both injured and evacuated for medical treatment. Security forces on scene shot the attacker," the IDF said.

How much more will it take before we recognize that Islam is the problem?

HAND-IN-HAND: LEFTISTS AND ISLAMISTS

LEFTISTS PROVIDE COVER FOR ISLAMISTS ALL OVER THE WORLD; THIS TIME IN BRITAIN.

THIS IS WHY I HAVE LONG ARGUED THAT WE NEED TO DEFEAT THE LEFT AT HOME BEFORE WE CAN DEFEAT THE ISLAMISTS ABROAD.

SOLDIER MURDERED IN SHOOTING AT BEERSHEBA BUS STATION

Another terrorist attack, this time at Beersheba's bus terminal, that resulted in at least one innocent's death:

An IDF soldier was killed and several more people were injured in a terror attack at the Central Bus Station in the southern city of Beersheba Sunday night.

Among the injured was an Eritrean man shot and seriously wounded by responding security forces, who initially mistook him for a terrorist.

According to the police, following an initial investigation, the attacker stabbed a soldier and stole his weapon, opening fire on the crowded bus terminal.

The soldier later died of his wounds after being rushed to a hospital in the area.

Rescue officials said 11 people were injured in the attack, which occurred at about 7:30 p.m.

Two of the victims were reported to be seriously wounded. At least four of those hurt in the attack were cops, police said.

The terrorist, who was not initially identified, was shot and killed by responding forces after holing up in a bathroom.

[...] An eyewitness told Channel 2 news the attacker was able to enter the bus station — which doubles as a commercial center — fairly easily, despite bolstered security forces throughout the country amid the terror wave.

After this, security forces had better start beefing up checkpoints to make it less easy to infiltrate. This is another very terrible incident caused by Mahmoud Abbas' incitement.

2 STABBINGS IN JUDEA/SAMARIA

More jihad knifings took place, and there'd been a third one earlier:

Shortly after Hebron saw its third stabbing attack, Jerusalem Police said Saturday night that a terrorist at the Kalandiya checkpoint pulled a knife and tried to stab a police officer at the crossing, but was unable to penetrate the officer’s bulletproof vest.

Officers at the scene then opened fire on the attacker, hitting him in the lower body.

A bomb squad officer then approached the wounded attacker, who pulled out another knife and tried to stab the officer.

A Border Police officer then opened fire, hitting the attacker, who was subdued. Police said the Palestinian assailant was identified as a 24-year-old resident of Kalandiya.

Palestinian assailants have carried out five attempted stabbings against Israelis on Saturday. In addition to the latest attack at Kalandia, three stabbings occurred in the West Bank city of Hebron and one attack was carried out in Jerusalem.

Mahmoud Abbas started this whole mess, and it's clear by now that he's not sorry it can't cease in such a hurry.
