Caterpiller of Death

News Link

Is there hope?


At first, those in their cars, on motorcycles and passing by on foot thought they were witnessing a traffic accident. It was only as the terrifying screams of terror victims emerged, those being systemically crushed in their cars by a bulldozer, did the public realize that they were in the midst of a terror attack.
At least five people were murdered and 66 wounded this afternoon when a Palestinian bulldozer driver targeted innocent civilians in Jerusalem.
Among the dead were two babies.

Who?


Police said the incident was definitely a terror attack, but stressed that they had no specific warning. Three terrorist groups claimed responsibility for the attack, including the Al Aksa Martyrs' Brigade, which is affiliated with Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas's Fatah movement. The other two were the Galilee Freedom Battalion, which is suspected of being affiliated with Hizbullah, and the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine, a fringe left-wing terror group.
Israel police said the terrorist, a 30-year-old Palestinian from Arab east Jerusalem, apparently acted alone. Police spokesman Micky Rosenfeld said the man was working on a railway project in Jerusalem.

So, Palestinians killed Jews. Notice it was not a single Palestinian. Why?


About two-thirds of Jerusalem's 700,000 residents are Jews, and the rest are Palestinians who came under Israeli control when Israel captured their part of the city in 1967.
Though Jews and Arabs have little social interaction, Palestinians perform much of the city's blue-collar work and the sides frequently come into contact. In contrast to West Bank Palestinians, Arab residents of Jerusalem have full freedom to work and travel throughout Israel. Many Jerusalem Arabs work in the construction industry.
Jerusalem City Hall spokesman Gidi Schmerling said all east Jerusalem residents who work in construction for the city must pass a police screening. He said Dwayat worked for a private construction firm. The contractor who employed him could not be reached for comment.
The terror groups claiming responsibility included the Al Aqsa Martyrs' Brigade, which is loosely affiliated with Abbas' Fatah movement, as well as the Galilee Freedom Battalion, suspected of being affiliated with Lebanon's Hezbollah guerrillas, and the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine, a fringe militant group.
Hamas, which rules the Gaza Strip and is currently maintaining a fragile cease-fire with Israel, said it did not carry out the attack but nevertheless praised it. "We consider it as a natural reaction to the daily aggression and crimes committed against our people," said Hamas spokesman Sami Abu Zuhri.
Abbas aide Saeb Erekat said, "We condemn any attacks that target civilians, whether Israelis or Palestinians."

Weather Jew or Muslim?

The BBC shows bias again.


While BBC Online currently covers the story "Bulldozer rampage hits Jerusalem," this was not the original headline reported HonestReporting.com "Offering a glimpse into the BBC's warped journalism, the initial headline read "Israel bulldozer driver shot dead".
"That this terror attack took place opposite Jerusalem Capital Studios, the local headquarters for many international media outlets, including BBC, Sky News and CNN, ensured that footage and coverage were available almost immediately. The BBC's very own correspondent Tim Franks even witnessed much of the incident from his office window. The BBC can have no excuse for not having the basic facts of the story in front of them from the very beginning," said HonestReporting.com

There is some hope, if this is for real.


Among the many comments of anger wrapped around the many YouTube videos of the terror attack, was one statement coming from a citizen of Jordan who said that he was ashamed of the Muslim who carried out the attack and sent condolences to the families in Israel.
"Not all Muslims are murderers," he said. "I and my family want no association with this type of racist hatred. Many Arabs and Muslims want peace and it is time that we began to confront those Muslims who make us appear like barbarians."

Where are the American coeds throwing themselves in front of the Palestinian bulldozer in front of the press? Where are is the coverage, the international outrage? Where are the protesters outside Caterpillar protesting the killing of Jews with one of their bulldozers?
