Stabbing Attack by islam brainwashed 14 & 16 yrs old muslim pally girls



On Monday morning two female Arab terrorists aged 14 and 16 conducted a stabbing attack on Yafo Street adjacent to Jerusalem's iconic outdoor Mahane Yehuda market, a centrally located site that attracts hundreds of Israelis and tourists alike.

The terrorists left two civilians wounded before being neutralized by gunfire from security forces, with the fire killing one of them - ironically the victim they chose in their stabbing was a 70-year-old Arab resident of Bethlehem, who they apparently mistook for a Jew.

They looked like any other Arab schoolgirls, and clearly didn't attract the suspicion of any passersby. But the two girls in the video above - caught on CCTV cameras in central Jerusalem - went on just moments later to carry out a stabbing attack next to the Mahane Yehuda Market.

The girls stabbed a 70-year-old man - a Palestinian Arab from Bethlehem they apparently mistook for a Jew - before being shot by security guards. Another man was accidentally shot in the hand as he attempted to intervene to stop the terrorists at the same time as the guards.

Previous footage showed the vicious attack itself, but in a sense the latest footage is perhaps more disturbing than the explicit violence of the first. In it, the two girls can be seen walking around, talking animatedly, and repeatedly reaching for something in their pockets or sleeves.

After walking around, waiting to select a victim at the perfect time, the pair can be seen making their way to Mahane Yehuda, where they would carry out their attack.

What can't be seen are their murder weapons: two pairs of scissors, which they used to stab their victim repeatedly in the head and upper body.

They were quickly dispatched by alert security guards, who killed one of the terrorists and left the other seriously injured.

A grieving father has a message for the Islamic Palestinian terrorists



Hundreds of people showed up on Tuesday for the funeral of IDF Corporal Ziv Mizrahi of Givat Ze'ev, who was murdered in a stabbing attack the day before at a gas station on Highway 443 northwest of Jerusalem.

Mizrahi's father, Doron Mizrahi, whose brother was murdered 13 years ago in a terror attack in Jerusalem, eulogized his son.

"They will not destroy our spirit, we will cry and we will mourn. Next Wednesday I will return to work," said the bereaved father.

"May the names of the haters of Israel be erased, the nation of Israel lives, it won't help them, they won't destroy our spirit. Thirteen years ago I lost my brother and thought that I had paid the price with that. Ziv saved his officer, he shot the terrorists with a knife in his heart - that's Ziv, a hero of Israel."

In the attack, a 16-year-old terrorist - who is the cousin of a terrorist who carried out a knife attack at the same gas station last August - sneaked up on Mizrahi and stabbed him, and alsowounded a 22-year-old woman. A 50-year-old woman was wounded from a stray bullet from security forces who stopped the attack.

Hadar Buchris Murdered by Islamic Palestinian Terrorist, and more Terror



A young woman gravely wounded in a stabbing attack at Gush Etzion Junction earlier Sunday has died of her wounds, officials have confirmed. She has been identified as 21-year-old Hadar Buchris, a resident of Tzfat in northern Israel.

In the third such attack of the day Sunday, an Arab terrorist stabbed and critically wounded her as she waited for a ride; she was taken to Jerusalem's Shaarei Tzedek hospital under sedation and on a ventilator, but doctors were forced to pronounce her dead as she lay on the operating table.

Since the start of October, when the latest escalation in Arab terror attacks began, 19 Israelis have been murdered in attacks. IDF soldiers stationed at the site shot and killed the terrorist.

The attack took place at the same site of a deadly shooting and car-ramming attack last week, in which three people were murdered.

It follows two similar attacks elsewhere in Israel Sunday. The first took place further north in Samaria, and tragedy was averted when an alert civilian ran over the female terrorist, preventing her from stabbing her intended victims. Security forces at the scene then shot her dead.

The second attack followed by just minutes, and took place at Kfar Adumim Junction, northeast of Jerusalem.

In that attack, an Arab taxi driver attempted to run over several Israeli civilians, and upon failing to do so exited his vehicle and attempted to stab them. In that incident as well the terrorist was stopped by a civilian, who shot him dead with his personal firearm.

Four wounded, including young girl, in Kiryat Gat stabbing



First responders hurried to Kiryat Gat's King David Street after receiving a report of a stabbing attack. Four people were wounded in the attack: A 51-year-old man, a 56-year-old woman, a 44-year-old woman, and a 13-year-old girl.

All were treated at the scene and evacuated to nearby hospitals in stable condition. Authorities believe that the perpetrator may currently be trapped in an apartment building.

A United Hatzalah volunteer, said, "When we arrived at the scene I came across a Haredi man who had been stabbed in the upper body and his tzitzit were stained with blood. Together with other volunteers from United Hatzalah's motorcycle unit, I provided him first aid and then he was taken by an MDA ambulance to the hospital."

Jonathan Pollard is free at last



Longtime prisoner Jonathan Pollard has just left the Federal Correction Complex in Butner, North Carolina, after over 30 years of being held on espionage charges, his wife Esther announced shortly after 11 a.m. Friday.

Esther and a number of Pollard's closest confidantes were waiting to greet Pollard as he first tasted freedom, at 4:15 a.m. EST; from there they will set off for New York to begin their lives anew.

There in New York, a probation officer will be assigned to Pollard by the US Department of Justice, and will inspect to make sure the 61-year-old stays within all of the limitations placed on him. Any excursion beyond the immediate area of his residence will require the approval of the probation officer. He will likewise be forbidden from flying to Israel - and will even be forbidden from checking the internet.

Pollard, who was arrested on charges of spying for Israel in 1985 and later sentenced to life in prison, began his 31st year in jail as prisoner 09185-016 this past November. He has been suffering from poor health and has become the subject of a high-profile campaign for his release.

Last year, the Parole Board of the Justice Department rejected Pollard's parole, with senior U.S. officials involved in the case writing to US President Barack Obama to complain that the decision was "deeply flawed". Once Pollard's release was granted, however, controversy remained over the conditions of his parole, after Obama and other top-ranking officials refused to intervene to allow him to return home to Israel before the 5-year limit.

Israeli Politicians welcomed Pollard's release Friday.

"The Jewish people welcome the release of Jonathan Pollard," Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu said. "As someone who brought up the issue many years with the US President, I have longed for this day."

"After three long and difficult decades, Jonathan will finally, finally be reunited with his family," Netanyahu continued. "I wish Jonathan that this Shabbat give him happiness and quiet, and that it should continue for the rest of his life."

Bill Passes Banning Boycotters of Israel From The Country

GOOD NEWS!



In Israel this morning, the Knesset approved an initial vote banning anyone who supports a boycott of Israel. 

 Similar to the laws of other nations who deny entrée to enemies of the State, the bill which will be ratified shortly resolved that the country will “bar anyone who publicly calls to boycott Israel or part of Israel from entering the country.”

Yinon Magal, the sponsor of the bill noted, “Whoever calls for a boycott, will not come here and will stay out, and this bill makes it clear to those who hate us that it’s over.” Magal added that this bill addresses “the absurd situation where a person exploits Israeli democracy and what Israel has to offer in order to push boycotts against the country.”

A few months ago, Israel’s High Court of Justice ruled that Israel’s Finance Minister can “impose fines and withhold funding from Israeli NGOs calling for boycotts of businesses in all or parts of Israel and the power to file lawsuits against those NGOs.”

We stand with Israel – and with the bill’s sponsor who said today, “Anyone who wants to boycott is welcome to do so from Syria.”

Israel to welcome the last group of Ethiopian Jews



The Israeli government on Sunday approved a proposal to allow the immigration of thousands of Ethiopians claiming Jewish descent, two years after saying that none remained there.

“Today we’ve made an important decision, to bring here the last descendants of the communities with an affinity to Israel,” Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said in a statement.

Israel brought the bulk of Ethiopia’s Jewish community to the country between 1984 and 1991 under the Law of Return guaranteeing citizenship to all Jews.

Sunday’s decision refers to the group known as Falashmura, descendants of Ethiopian Jews who converted to Christianity, many under duress, in the 18th and 19th centuries.

They are not considered Jewish and are therefore not eligible for citizenship, but many have relatives among Ethiopian Jews already living in Israel.

An Interior Ministry statement said the “last members of the community” would be allowed in over a period of five years, and would undergo conversion under the auspices of the ultra-Orthodox Chief Rabbinate.

A ministry spokeswoman told AFP there were approximately 9,100 such people awaiting permission to come, most in camps in the Ethiopian cities of Addis Ababa and Gondar.

The colors of the French flag in Jerusalem



In Israel, the Israeli Knesset and the wals of the Old City of Jerusalem were lit up with the colors of the French flag as Israel stood in solidarity with France. Israel knows what it is to suffer terror attacks day-in and day-out over decades.
Ironically just a few days ago, Israel was singled out by the EU to have products, originating in Judea & Samaria to be labeled in order to have these products boycotted! Those that will be most affected by any boycotts are those workers that the BDS supporters purport to support - the Palestinain workers in Israeli factories.
It is not Israel that should be boycotted but rather Islam that is intolerant of other cultures and religions!

Two Israelis Murdered by Islamic Arab terrorists near Hebron


Two Israelis Murdered by Islamic Arab terrorists near Hebron



Two Israelis have been murderled after Arab Islamic terrorists opened fire on their vehicle near the Jewish town of Otniel in Judea's Mount Hevron region. Magen David Adom (MDA) paramedics have identified the victims as a 40-year-old man and an 18-year-old youth.

A 16-year-old boy was moderately wounded. He was treated by emergency services at the scene before being transferred to a nearby hospital.

According to an initial investigation, the Arab terrorists overtook an Israeli family traveling in their car and raked it with bullets. When the car ground to a halt the terrorists continued firing at it, before driving off.

Four children who were traveling in the car were treated for shock at the scene, and evacuated to Soroka hospital in Be'er Sheva.

IDF soldiers are currently sweeping the area in an attempt to intercept the terrorists.

A senior MDA medic described the tragic scene.

"When we arrived at the scene we saw seven people outside the car; two of them - a man around 40 years old and a young man aged 18 lying unresponsive (on the ground) with gunshot wounds to their upper bodies. They had no signs of life and we declared their death at the scene.

"We also provided first aid treatment and evacuated to hospital a 16-year-old boy, with gunshot wounds to his limbs, and four trauma victims."

EU approves new antisemetic labeling guidelines for settlement products



Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says European Union's move to label products from Judea and Samaria is "highly discriminatory," could undermine EU-Israel relations • 36 U.S. senators protest, saying plan could "promote a de facto boycott of Israel."

The European Union's executive on Wednesday approved new guidelines for labeling products manufactured in Judea and Samaria differently than those produced in other parts of Israel, a decision it says is technical but which many in Israel say is unacceptable discrimination.

The European Commission "adopted this morning the Interpretative Notice on indication of origin of goods from the territories occupied by Israel since June 1967," said an EU official.

Drawn up over three years by the European Commission, the guidelines mean Israeli producers must explicitly label farm goods and cosmetics that come from settlements when they are sold in the European Union.

"This is a technical measure, not a political one," one Commission source who declined to be named said on Tuesday. "The occupied territory is not part of the sovereign state of Israel, so goods cannot be sold as 'Made in Israel'."

Britain, Belgium and Denmark already affix labels to Israeli goods, differentiating between those from Israel and those, particularly fruits and vegetables, that come from the Jordan Valley. Now all 28 EU member states would have to apply labels.



...... Israel's Economy Ministry estimates the impact will be about $50 million a year, affecting fresh produce such as grapes and dates, wine, poultry, honey, olive oil and cosmetics.

That is around a fifth of the $200-$300 million worth of goods produced in settlements each year, but a drop in the ocean next to the $30 billion of goods and services Israel exports to the EU annually, a third of all its exports.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu had recently sent a strongly worded letter to EU foreign policy chief Federica Mogherini urging her to thwart the bid.

"Endorsing this initiative will undermine the European Union's relations with Israel, which are important to both parties," Netanyahu wrote.

Labeling settlement products is "a political move indicative of the EU's double standards where Israel is concerned," he wrote, and "is a highly discriminatory act, which has been avoided in the majority of the other 200 territorial disputes worldwide."

Car attack at Tapuah Junction



A video recording shows this afternoon's (Sunday) car attack at Tapuah Junction, the first of three attacks today.

A terrorist used his car to wound four Jews who were waiting at the stop, two of them moderately to severely. Within moments Border Police at the scene neutralized the terrorist.

MDA first responders provided medical aid to the wounded and took them to Beilinson Hospital in Petah Tikvah.

About an hour and a half after the attack, another terrorist stabbed a security guard at the entrance to Beitar Illit. The guard was lightly wounded and shot the (Female Islamic) terrorist. The victim was treated by MDA and taken to Jerusalem's Sha'arei Tzedek Hospital. The terrorist is in moderate condition and was brought to Hadassah Ein Kerem Hospital.

Jews and Christians Must Stand up to Their Abusers



By Judi Wolder

In October, hundreds of Arabs entered the Joseph’s Tomb compound in Shechem (Nablus) and set it on fire, severely damaging part of the Jewish holy site, which is said to contain the remains of the biblical patriarch. To make matters worse, the UN cultural body known as UNESCO has asserted that the Cave of the Patriarchs in Hebron and the Tomb of Rachel on the outskirts of Jerusalem are an integral part of ‘Palestine’.

Such instances of cultural vandalism against Jews are of little interest to the rest of the world. But when ‘Palestinian’ and Muslim leaders allege that Israel is attempting to change long-standing arrangements that bar Jews from praying on the Temple Mount (a claim denied by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu), the media and the international community go wild, as did the Arabs who used the rumours as an excuse to start a stabbing intifada against Jews.

There is a basic flaw in this reaction. The stabbings are excused and written off as a consequence of alleged changes to the status quo on the Al Aqsa compound, but attacks on Jewish holy sites are reported as merely part of the so-called cycle of violence, which essentially absolves Arabs of responsibility. While Al Aqsa continues to be under strict Islamic control, Jewish holy sites are apparently up for grabs. Not only is UNESCO (at the behest of several Arab nations including Algeria, Morocco and Egypt) trying to de-Judaize Joseph’s tomb and the Cave of the Patriarchs by declaring them integral parts of ‘Palestine’, the organisation almost succeeded in declaring the Western Wall a Muslim holy site.

So we have a situation where UNESCO and Muslim revisionists are attempting to rewrite history by appropriating Jewish holy sites and, in a very literal sense, destroying any trace of an historic Jewish presence. For years, the Jerusalem Islamic Waqf (the trust that controls and manages the Temple Mount) has allowed illegal digging at the site. Not only have Palestinian excavations of Temple Mount damaged the structure, valuable historical artefacts have been thrown on to rubbish dumps.

Once the evidence is destroyed, it’s easy to create a new narrative and then claim ownership over the land. By doing this, the Arabs and their Muslim backers are in a position to negate Judaism and Christianity (which has close historic, biblical and theological ties to the Jewish faith). Jews and Christians do not realise that decisions made by UNESCO and the Arab authorities represent a violation of their respective religions and their shared histories. Once destroyed, Muslims can say what they like. If Ishmael is replaced as the legitimate heir of Abraham, and all traces of Isaac’s lineage are destroyed, then Muslims can gain sole rights to Eretz Israel and God’s promise.

A seventh grade history book in California has already attempted to re-write history by stating that Hagar was Abraham’s first wife, therefore legitimizing Ishmael’s lineage. Why is this so important? Why should anyone care who has legitimate rights? It’s important because these events are not occurring in a vacuum. Look at other parts of the Middle East where Muslims are committing acts of genocide against Christians and destroying their cultural legacy. But the problem does not stop there. The Islamist political agenda is world dominance. The intent of radical Muslims is to rid the world of all non-believers – not only Jews and Christians but also Hindus, Buddhists, and more.

In order to undermine Christianity, the Islamists first have to go to its source – Judaism. If they can wipe Judaism off the face of the earth, then they can eradicate Christianity, which is Islam’s closest rival in terms of numbers. The methodology to achieving this goal is multi-pronged, involving verbal attacks, ideological clashes, historical revisionism and ultimately murder. Sadly, the Islamists are winning their war because many Jews, Christians and people in Western countries unwittingly support them.

Why are so many deaf, dumb and blind to what is happening? For Christians it is the premise of ‘see no evil speak no evil, hear no evil’. This is predicated in the teachings of Jesus who said, “If anyone slaps you on the right cheek, turn to them the other cheek also.” (Mathew 5:39) However, for Jews, who have been treated badly for three thousand years, embracing the enemy is based on survival instinct. Christians are expected to love their enemies, but some liberal-minded Jews (as a result of learned helplessness) go so far as to defend their enemies in the same way that a victim of domestic abuse defends his or her attacker.

On her blog, Christina Enevoldsen describes how she perpetuated the cycle of domestic abuse: through submission, she believed she was protecting herself. She believed she could make her husband a better person, if she was good enough. She taught other women that good behavior was the best way to protect themselves. “Of course, placating abusers is no protection at all and only perpetuates the cycle,” she writes, before adding:

“The only thing that stops abuse is standing up to abusers. To stop being a victim, I had to admit that I had been a victim. I had to recognise how powerless I was (in past cases of abuse) – that there wasn’t anything I could have done to stop him. I had to see that it was a lie that I could control an abuser by my good behavior. Only by identifying with my powerlessness then, could I take back my power… Now that I stand up to abusers instead of trying to make them happy, for the first time in my life, I’m not being abused.”

What liberal Jews need to understand is that by attempting to be “good,” by placating and not antagonizing their attackers, they are actually perpetuating the cycle of abuse that made them victims in the first place. Likewise, liberal Christians fail to see that their compassion is both misplaced and misinterpreted as weakness. When your front door is broken down, you do not protect yourself by walking on egg shells, or by being silent, or by turning the other cheek.

We, Jews and Christians, must acknowledge that we are being attacked by a vicious, relentless enemy. We must face up to the reality of the situation and realise that placating does not help. The abuser-victim paradigm in which we tolerate ‘Palestinian’ propaganda or pacify Islamist terrorists does not lessen the danger; on the contrary, it increases the threat level. Being tolerant of the intolerant is liberalism at its worst, and keeps us stuck in a perpetuating cycle of powerlessness. It in no way defends our freedoms, our liberty or our values.

We need to act, before it is too late to protect our Judeo-Christian values. We need to break this cycle, stand up to our abusers and empower ourselves. Before we become fossils – frozen in the annals of time, or worse, a heap of ashes, burned like Joseph’s tomb.

ISRAELI SPECIAL FORCES RESCUE LAST REMAINING JEWS FROM SYRIA

So it is now official. Syria is “juden rein”



The last Syrian Jews have now been evacuated by a very secret operation in Halav (Aleppo), and there are no more Jews living in Syria. This has brought the end of over 3000 years of Jewish existence in Syria.

The last few Jews were smuggled out of Syria with a very special and daring operation that involved great danger, but with the help of G-d, was successful. They had to be smuggled through battlefields where one did not know who was your enemy and who was a friend and which rebel group was in control at that hour and who would stop you on the road out.

This story will soon be told of this incredible mission that was carried out by Israel to save the remaining Jews of Syria. They were a very Holy community and had very great Rabbis throughout their very rich history. Their contribution to the Jewish people is immeasurable. Rabbi Chaim Vittol z”l was the Talmud of the Arizal and wrote a few great books in kabbalah that are not fully understood today.

Throughout the world there are prominent and very active Syrian communities that left years ago, but have stuck to their very rich culture. It will now be up to them to continue their traditions and pass it on to the next generations.

It is so hard to think that the Syrian Jews we know today are now going to be the last and lost over time.

Today is a very tragic day in the history of the Jewish people.

The Jews left in Yemen are also in very great danger and the authorities there have given the Jews an ultimatum of either converting to Islam or leaving the country. I sincerely hope something similar to this operation is being done for them too. That community also goes back thousands of years and it looks like the end of the Jewish era in Yemen too.

For the first time since 1948, Egypt votes for Israel at UN



Egypt’s representative at United Nations voted on Friday in support of Israel’s bid for membership of the UN Committee on the Peaceful Uses of Outer Space Affairs (UNOOSA), Israeli media reported.

Since the creation of the state of Israel in 1948 and its acceptance to membership of the UN, Egypt had never voted in its favour at the UN before last Friday.

One hundred and seventeen countries voted in favour of Israel, 21 abstained, while only Namibia voted against the decision. Countries that abstained include: Qatar, Tunisia, Syria, Mauritania, Morocco, Saudi Arabia, Yemen, Kuwait, Iraq and Algeria.

Israeli sources said that they were accepted to this UN committee after "intensive diplomatic efforts" exerted at different levels.

Prior to the vote, spokesman for the Egyptian ministry of foreign affairs Ahmed Abu Zeid refused to comment on the matter. However, in the face of fierce domestic criticism, he said that voting for Israel was necessary in order to secure the membership of a number of Arab countries to the committee.

Egyptian politicians and activists widely rejected this move and severely criticised Egyptian Military President Abdul-Fattah al-Sisi.
