While Obama continues to politicize guns deaths and rail against the 2nd Amendment, the crazy Islamists in “Palestine” are killing people through any means available; Three Dead, More Than 20 Injured in Shootings, Stabbings in Israel ~
At least three people were killed and more than a dozen injured in a series of stabbing and shooting attacks in Israel on Tuesday, officials said, as the wave of recent violence showed no signs of abating.
Hamas praised the attacks and called their perpetrators “heroes” as Jerusalem Mayor Nir Barkat called on the Israeli government to “immediately implement drastic measures” to ensure the safety of the city’s residents as the death toll from near-daily violence climbed.
Thank-you for that story NBC. Honestly, it’s nice to see that someone in the mainstream media is at least acknowledging this latest escalation in terrorist attacks in Israel. Most aren’t ~ Terror in Israel—Why’s the World Media Yawning? ~
There’s been a terror onslaught here in Israel for the last week and a half. Those of us who bother checking foreign media outlets have noticed that there’s relatively little coverage. This is mainly good, since, of course, coverage of Israel’s conflicts with Palestinians and neighbors tends to be quite hostile to Israel.
Still, it raises the question of why interest isn’t greater this time. Those hallowed principles of “If it bleeds, it leads” and “Jews are news” would seem to apply.
And the weapons of choice? Anything will do ~
Along with the usual rock-throwing and gun ambushes, they’ve been lunging at us—on streets and sidewalks, in malls and bus stations—with knives and screwdrivers. These “lone-wolf” attackers aren’t terrorists per se. Many have been teenage boys—or teenage girls, or young women.
They mostly come from the territories—but some also from within Israel—looking for Jews, any Jews, to kill. They’re crazed with hate and not seeking a “two-state” solution and definitely not “peace.” The hate largely takes the form of a religious frenzy—after months of the Islamist organizations and the Palestinian Authority drumming the libelous message into their heads that Israel is scheming to destroy the Al-Aqsa Mosque on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem.
Evil doesn’t live in guns Mr. Obama, it lives in hearts.
Not that he cares. Truth doesn’t serve to advance the progressive agenda.

Netanyahu: ‘Terror doesn’t pay,’ Israel will be victorious ~
Netanyahu calls on Mahmoud Abbas to stop “lying” about Israel’s actions. He claims the PA president is inciting by misrepresenting incidents in recent days, pointing to a 13-year-old Palestinian boy who stabbed Israelis in Jerusalem and was then filmed bleeding on the ground. Palestinians, he said, were circulating the video and claiming the boy was a martyr killed in cold blood while omitting the context — that he had first attacked and gravely wounded an Israeli boy his age — and the fact that the boy lived and was treated by Israeli medics.
