We have seen a spate of such attacks recently — and a billboard in Nazareth that actually called for them. “Moderate” Fatah called for such attacks. And the Islamic State issued this call in September 2014:
So O muwahhid, do not let this battle pass you by wherever you may be. You must strike the soldiers, patrons, and troops of the tawaghit. Strike their police, security, and intelligence members, as well as their treacherous agents. Destroy their beds. Embitter their lives for them and busy them with themselves. If you can kill a disbelieving American or European — especially the spiteful and filthy French — or an Australian, or a Canadian, or any other disbeliever from the disbelievers waging war, including the citizens of the countries that entered into a coalition against the Islamic State, then rely upon Allah, and kill him in any manner or way however it may be….If you are not able to find an IED or a bullet, then single out the disbelieving American, Frenchman, or any of their allies. Smash his head with a rock, or slaughter him with a knife, or run him over with your car, or throw him down from a high place, or choke him, or poison him….
“Four murdered in terror attack in Jerusalem’s East Talpiot,” by Roi Yanovasky and Omri Efraim, Ynet News, January 8, 2017:
Four people—three women and a man in their 20s—were murdered and 13 wounded when a Palestinian truck driver deliberately rammed into pedestrians on a popular promenade overlooking the walled Old City of Jerusalem on Sunday.
The truck, which has Israeli license plates stolen from a private vehicle, sped towards pedestrians waiting at a bus stop and hit them deliberately, police said.
“The terrorist came from the direction of Alar Street. He noticed a group of people coming off a bus that stopped along the promenade. As far as we know, he sped up and hit them,” said Jerusalem District Police spokeswoman Galit Ziv.
Police said the terrorist was shot and neutralized. Palestinian sources identified the terrorist as Fadi al-Kanabir, a released prisoner from Jabel Mukaber, a neighborhood in East Jerusalem that borders East Talpiot. IDF troops raided the terrorist’s house shortly after the attack.
Speaking at the scene of the attack, Police Commissioner Roni Alsheikh said there was no prior intelligence regarding the terrorist’s intention to carry out his attack. He said no additional details can be revealed about the terrorist at this moment as the investigation is still ongoing.
A driver who witnessed the incident said on the radio the truck ploughed into a group of soldiers, and that they fired on the driver, who reversed direction and ran over them again.
“They shot him, until they neutralized him,” said the bus driver, who gave his name only as Moshe.
A tour guide who was at the scene said, “I saw a truck speeding… people ran for cover, yelling ‘terror attack’… it lasted about a minute and a half until the terrorist was neutralized … I was treating the wounded, trying to strengthen them and praying.”…
Hamas praised the attack, trying to get #TruckIntifada trending on Twitter and handing out sweets in Gaza to celebrate it.
“This truck attack shows that any attempt to put a stop to the resistance will fail,” Hamas’s military wing, the al-Qassam Brigades, wrote on Twitter.
Mac-101 says
If I was Israel I would declare war on HAMAS and especially all of its Political, Religious leaders, and financers. Take the fight REAL close to them like Reagan did to Qaddafi. It shut Qaddafi up and stabilized Libya up till da HildeBeast unleashed the demons again!

Yahoo News reported that “the truck veered off course,” and then struck the soldiers.
The MSM, always with the narrative.
Diane Harvey says
Or, “Truck drives into soldiers, 4 dead,”
No accuracy of course, such as “Muslim uses truck to murder Jews considered by Muslims to be the worst of peoples,”
Kay says
This “lack of accuracy” is keeping many unaware (or worse, defending Mohammedism). So many intelligent people believe they have been informed when they access this incomplete and misleading MSM narrative.

I have already said prayers for the families of the young soldiers who were murdered, and special prayers for those who were wounded; may they make a swift and complete recovery.
I – non-jewish Aussie, practising Christian – have a deep regard for Israel and for the Jewish people; I totally support the right of Jews to reside in and to exercise sovereignty over the Traditional lands of the House of Israel. I affirm that Jerusalem is *yours*, your capital city, *your* sacred site.
And I can see, too, quite plainly, that the jihad that attacks you is *also* aimed at every other non-Muslim in the world.
Today it was young Jewish soldiers on a street in Jerusalem.
But not so long ago it was a young British soldier, Lee Rigby, on a street in *London* – the Muslims ran him over with a car, then jumped out of the car and as he lay dying, gravely injured, in the roadway, they *hacked at his helpless body with machetes*, and ecstatically ranted about allah.
Tomorrow it might be a Muslim with a big truck, or a car, driving full-tilt at non-Muslims in India, or Africa, or … Australia or Canada or the USA (it’s already happened at least twice in the USA, years ago, even before Islamic State started telling Muslims to get in vehicles and conduct hit and runs; there was Car Jihad in San Francisco, and Car Jihad in a University campus in, I think, South Carolina).
We infidels, Jewish and non-Jewish, are all in this together. Side by side. With the global jihad targeting us all, wherever we are, whoever we are, for no other ‘reason’ than that we are Infidels, and still breathing.
Mak says
So well said, Dumbledoresarmy! All of us infidels are the target and we must stick together.
When you think about it almost every other group practices the single key tenet for harmony: Live and let live. Why is it that non-Muslims can have different beliefs and we don’t have to kill each other over them but with Muslims it’s “our way or death.”
rachel says
BTW…the local shopping mall (very close to the attack) is FILLED with Islamic shoppers! They are stocking up for the parties.
Blurb1000 says

Mak says
My family are very right politically in Israel. There are lots of Israeli’s who are leftists (just like in the rest of the Western world) who ignore the problem. How about we don’t allow them in? We expel them from Israel and stop giving them welfare so they can have 15 Muslim babies for every Jewish baby born.
My uncle lives near Zarzir (near Nazareth) and over the years, every time I’ve visited him I’ve watched the three arab families that founded that town turn it into a town of 1000’s of not so friendly Muslims.
dumbledoresarmy says
Yep. I think, in the end, deportation to the lands already totally blighted by Islam is going to be the only way out, for *all* non-Islamic countries currently afflicted with a Muslim fifth column whether of recent or less recent origin.
I’m an Aussie. I think Australia has to STOP letting identifiable Muslims in, and that we are going to *have* to change our laws to make it possible to evict ALL the identifiable Muslims. Or we lose this war.
And in the case of Israel, you are such a small country, surrounded by a mass of more-or-less-openly-murderous Mohammedans…. if at some point soon, your authorities decide that it’s just too dangerous to keep the Fifth Column around, I would totally support Israel’s deciding to turf out all the Mohammedans, beginning with those who openly incite and/ or enable and/ or celebrate Muslim murders of Jews.
Got Muslims? Got Jihad.
(Feel free to take that slogan – ‘Got Muslims? Got Jihad’ – and translate it into colloquial modern Hebrew, and spread it about. Because it’s a simple, factual observation).
No Muslims inside the gates = no Jihad inside the gates, even if you still have to defend against jihad launched from *outside of* the gates.
Michael Copeland says
“It is a fifth column and we will rise up one day and implement the Sharia.”

Dumbledore,
Australia has been trying to do the right thing. Sheik Baraq Hussein Obama has been trying to force Australia to let in more refugees — an act that, in my opinion, would result in Australian blood on his hands (why not, Obama’s insane policies are responsible for so much blood already).
I hope Australia tells Obama where to shove it.

Dear Israeli KUFFAR, please always remember that as Infidels/ Kuffar/ None Muslims, it is VITAL that you realize that one does not need more than two brain cells of logic to understand Muslims & Islam in a nutshell~
Since every Muslim is Sharia compliant, every Muslim cannot ever be a Law abiding LOYAL citizen in ANY none Muslim nation because these nations do not submit to Allah’s Sharia.
Hence every Muslim is the enemy of every none Muslim Infidel/ Kafir on planet Earth (80% of current of none Muslim humanity)
Every Muslim is a potential Mass Murderer the instant he/ she decides that he/she is NOT Sharia compliant enough. (Not ALL Muslims are Terrorists but ALL Terrorists against Infidels are MUSLIMS)
Every Muslim is therefore a hair trigger Time Bomb primed to go off
Only in the WARPED imagination of leftists can one find Moderate Militant Radical or Extremist Muslims because in reality Muslims are Muslims just as Nazis are Nazis and no one ever addressed Nazis as Moderate Militant Radical or Extremist
Therefore, because Sharia prohibits them, no Muslim can ever be LOYAL to the laws or the peoples who are Infidels/ Kuffar
All other explanations are superfluous and redundant
It is time for every decent Australian to unshackle yourselves from the DRACONIAN Political Correctness imposed upon you by your Criminally Negligent elites and go out in the streets and declare these TRUTHS in public and always counter attack the apologists for Muslims and Islam with the FACTS above to utterly discredit them in public

Israeli government recently persecuted a young Israeli soldier who shot and killed a Palestinian jihadist terrorist who cold-bloodedly stabbed the soldier’s colleague. The right thing for the Israeli government to do now is to kick out all radical Arab muslims out of Israel. Arabs have 22 independent countries and the only reason why they deeply hate Israel has nothing to do with land but is based on the deep-seated hateful and jihadist Islamic supremacist beliefs they held. Any of the of the 22 Arab nations could have taken all of the so-called palestinians and could have integrated them into their people just as Arab-Israelis were taken in by Israel after they were kicked out of Arab countries decades ago.

Just as Trump intends to “drain the swamp” in the US, Bibi should do the same in IsraeL. Bomb Gaza off the face of the earth( before they complete their tunnels) and round up every stinking palestinian in East Jerusalem or wherever they be
and deport them back to Jordan or some other islamic s**thole of their choice. They have 57 to choose from. It will also free up land so Israel can build more ‘settlements’ for the indigenous Israeli people.

From the terror group leader: “This truck attack shows that any attempt to put a stop to the resistance will fail,” Hamas’s military…”
That statement proves they don’t want peace and will continue to murder as many as they are able for as long as they are able. They are satan’s children. It isn’t about settlements, it is about life…for anyone not moslim, they wish to end the life.
davej says
The complete lack of any condemnation of these savage attacks from the Muslim world tells me that there is only joy in their hearts when each one occurs. The quiet gloating is just more evidence that their’s is a sick and twisted “religion”. I have no doubt that they truly wish there were more victims.
If there were actually any moderate and peaceful Muslims they would be standing against this. Slamming large trucks into pedestrians is not “resistance”, it is barbaric premeditated murder. Wishing for the complete destruction of Israel is not resistance, it is genocide.
mortimer says
Davej wrote: “lack of any condemnation”. Not completely true, since general, official condemnations are issued by various bodies a week later and receive little attention.
Nevertheless, the general support by Muslims for terrorist groups is around 15% world wide, translating into an actual figure of about 200 MILLION Muslims worldwide who APPROVE of Islamic terrorist groups.
davej says
Hmm, escaped my notice if they did. Any links?
mortimer says
Davej wrote: “barbaric premeditated murder” … from your perspective, that is accurate. From the Muslim perspective, jihad REVENGE killings are COMMANDED BY ALLAH in the Koran.
-K.11.173 “Believers, retaliation is decreed for you in bloodshed.”
-K.2.178 “O you who believe! Retaliation is prescribed for you in the matter of the slain.”
somehistory says
“only joy in their hearts”
Actually, it isn’t joy (because joy is a fruit of God’s Spirit)…
it is glee. They take wicked pleasure in and exult over the murders.
davej says
Yes, “glee” is the better word.
The problem is we are dealing with people who almost literally “hear imaginary voices in their heads”. Islamic teachings are equivalent to schizophrenia.

Walter Sieruk says
Such jihadist vicious and murderous attacks , as that truck attack, against Jewish people with deadly and violent actions are sanctioned in the “holy book’ of Islam the Koran. Which instructs in violence and killing for the cause of Islam. As found in, for example, 4: 89. 5:33. 9:5,111,123. 47:4. In other words the Koran inspires and causes such hideous violence. Furthermore, another role the Koran has in such deadly Islamic terror attacks in the Jewish nation of Israel is that the Koran contains many negative about the Jewish people. The reason that the Koran reads as it does have much to do with the history of the founder and prophet of Islam, who is Muhammad. This is for a specific time period of his life Muhammad lived among many Jewish people and he liked them at first. Later then they would not accept his claim of being of prophet, Muhammad then took is dislike to them that then turned into bitterness and even hate for them. So in the hate and bitterness he spoke many derogatory things about the as even referring to them as “apes and swine.” Such word of bitterness and hate, along with other thing he said, where written down on things and then later after his death those words were together together and then eventually, in time went in the composition of the Koran. Therefore, that why the Koran reads and in does about the Jewish people, as in calling them descendants of “apes and swine.” As seen in the Koran in 2:65; 7:166.; 5:60. Furthermore, as a Christian I can keyboard that there is a chance the Muhammad actually might had been a prophet but the important thing to understand is that Muhammad was NOT a prophet send by God. Instead, Muhammad was a deceptive, lying false prophet send by Satan to lead many people astray and even and straight into hell. Jesus, in fact, had predicted and warned of the coming of such men as Muhammad. For Jesus taught “Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.” Matthew 7:15. In addition, the Bible further warns that “many false prophets are gone out into the world.” First John 4:1. [K.J.V.]
Walter Sieruk says
First, it needs to be remembered that the Quran instructs jihad -minded Muslims in Sura 9:111. The believers fight in Allah’s Cause, they slay and are slain ,they kill and are killed.” Second, this jihad attack in Jerusalem brings to mind that the Quran in 47:4. teaches jihadist /Muslims “Whenever you encounter the unbelievers strike off their heads until you make a great slaughter among them…” Let’s face it, using a truck as a weapon can sure make a greater “slaughter among them ” than a sword can. Third, the Quran has the doctrine in 9:123. “O you who believe ! Fight those of the disbelievers who are close to you, and let them find harshness in you.” It stand to reason the running over people with a truck is a very effective way for a jihadist to show people harshness.
Mong says
Non Muslims are being far too nice about this. We need to strike the necks when we meet the believer. Moderate, radical, whatever. We’re pissed.
abad says
First airplanes now trucks – Muslims and machinery do not mix well together do they.
Walter Sieruk says
Many times the jihadist members of different Islamic terror entities have gathered together and chanted the words “We love death, they love life.” Likewise those jihadist/Muslims don’t stop with those awful words; they carry through with jihad suicide/homicide attacks. Any sane person would ask “Why do those jihad –minded Muslims have such a mindset of murderous madness?” The answer is that they obtain the way of thinking and believing from the “holy book” of Islam, the Koran. As some people call it the Qu ‘ran. For example the Koran in Sura 9:111 instructs “The believers fight in Allah’s Cause, they slay and are slain, they kill and are killed.” Therefore it may be conclude that Islam is actually a death cult. In great and wonderful contrast to the death cult which is Islam there is Christianity which is centered on Jesus and His teachings. For Jesus did not teach killing and death but taught and gave life, a good peaceful well lived life and more. For example Jesus declared “I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.” John 10:10. [K.J.V.]
Undaunted says
I recently did an assessment of an evacuation drill done by a large company, which is a known terrorist target. The building doing the drill was their most vulnerable – and most likely target – and was inside a fence-line, with an armed guard at the gate not 100′ from the front door. The Rally Point was a parking lot outside the fence-line, immediately parallel to and abutting a major 4-lane arterial upon which vehicles can reach high speeds. To further situate the Rally Point for you, it was at the SE corner of a large, busy intersection, with no protection from any vehicle coming southbound into the parking lot/Rally Point. When I was shown the set-up, I just scratched my head but held my tongue, waiting to see what would happen.
Once the “Start” signal was given and the company Emergency Preparedness “experts” were in place along with about 20 helpers in their bright lime-green safety vests, people started to meander from the building, going out the in-bound lanes of the vehicle gate, bunching up at the turnstile gates, generally making of themselves perfect targets. The helpers met the evacuees as they squeezed out the gates and directed them toward the west side of the parking lot. The parking lot was unprotected by any means, as I’ve said, just a 5″ curb.
Moving right along, the people shuffled in the direction they were being led and within 10 minutes there were about 300 potential victims packed into the NW corner of the parking lot, with nothing between them and a body-bag except that 5″ curb.They were literally herded into that position by these “experts” and were packed as tight as a Walmart Store front door on Black Friday morning.
Once the party was over and the players sent back to their cubicles, I let the company “experts” know what my assessment was and they totally blew me off. They insisted it was a “good” drill because they got everyone out of the building and to the Rally Point quickly and safely – “safely” meaning no one had bumped their noggin on the gate going out. I explained their plan had set up hundreds of people perfectly for a vehicle attack such as what had just been perpetrated in Nice, France; that shooters could have popped out any of the dozens of vehicles the evacuated employees were crowded next to; and that any of those dozens of vehicles could be loaded with a bomb big enough to turn all the evacuees into pink mist. They looked at me as though I was out of my mind… and wrote it up as a total success, omitting my observations and recommendations.
This company has a really good “preparedness” reputation as far as the public can see, but if I told you how woefully unprepared they are – including their security operation – and how stupid their “experts” are, you’d not believe me. You know the name of this company.
So, you better have a good plan, because the experts don’t. They’re interested in “success” as long as it doesn’t require that they actually know what the fuck they’re talking about or what they’re doing… to you.

Thanks for that narration, Undaunted. The fact that what you conveyed does not surprise me serves, ipso facto, as the root of the problem.
Oh man, are we in trouble or what? Which is exactly where the Islamic monsters want us to be. Meanwhile, there are clowns to the left of us and jokers to the right.
As always, thanks for your expertise on matters you have related. Trouble of course, as I know you know, clowns and jokers aplenty are virtually ubiquitous and will not pay any attention to sound advice, such as you have.
Not looking good but a Happy New Year nonetheless and may you and those you hold most dear to your heart stay safe in an ever increasingly dangerous and stupid world.

Obama, Bush and the Clintons did the world no favors. The gross negligence and willful ignorance is truly beyond any words. I doubt anyone in the current administration ever ties their own shoes.
My friend from Haffa (Tel Aviv) moved to ATL last year go figure. She was in fear for her life walking in the street by Muslims in Niquabs.
911 was the initiating blow and too many civilian and military lives have been lost with no real end to these attacks in sight.
Dov Berrol says
For every terror attack against Jews in Yerushalayim committed by Muslim jihadis, another country should declare their intention to move their embassy there from Tel Aviv – and built it in memory of the victims. The USA should be first and Russia should be next….
dumbledoresarmy says
Yep. Great idea.
Also: what if, every time Muslims kill a Jew in eretz Yisroel, the Israelis were to raid and raze a *mosque* and deport the imam/ sheik/ whatever, to Gaza? Starting with all those mosques that have *got* to be on Mossad and Shabak ‘watch’ lists already (I’d say that the number that aren’t on some sort of watch list are probably a lot fewer than those that are…).
I wonder how fast the local Muslims would stop killing Jews inside Israel, if they worked out that if they killed X number of Jews, ALL their (that is, the Muslims’) military bases/ murder cult operations-centres on Jewish soil would be… razed to the ground, gone, finished, kaput?
