This is more fallout from the Muslim rage over metal detectors being placed at the Temple Mount. As far as Muslims worldwide are concerned, it is an inexcusable outrage that the Israelis would try to defend themselves from jihad attacks. They should just sit passively by and wait to be murdered.
(Thanks to Jerk Chicken.)

That’s really what it’s about: Jews not being allowed to defend themselves.
Interestingly, in the Termple Mount case, it was Druze cops who were killed. not Jewish ones. But Islamists have no more for Druze than they do for Jews, so it really makes no difference to them.
Force of arms is the ONLY way for Jews, Druze and other minorities to survive in this area. One wishes that it weren’t so, but it is.

Tillerson is a piece of @#$%. We sit and talk about “but Hillary” all day when in reality Rex is continuing her legacy at State.

Robert Spencer has explained the Muslim attitude to those who resist JIHAD ATTACKS: “it is an inexcusable outrage (in the minds of Muslims) that the Israelis would try to defend themselves from jihad attacks.”
That phrase applies to ALL dirty kafirs whom Muslims are required to HATE ‘for the sake of Allah’.
NO KAFIRS should defend themselves against Muslims… ALL KAFIRS should keep their arms at their sides and allow Muslims to SLAUGHTER THEM like tame sheep.

This is an expected outcome, and I suspect that we will see this get worse. My opinion was and is that the incident that started with the murder of the two guards was well planned in order to cook up more violence against Israel. Other sources have pointed out that the Israelis are at a high level of mobilization and are preparing for a long period of increased violence. I think that is an understatement. They responded and mobilized quickly, so I suspect that while they did not know the exact triggering event, they knew something was being planned. Here it is folks. All of the usual bad actors inside and outside of Israel will get busy.
If you are Jewish (observant, secular, birth only, or Messianic) hang on to you kippah and your head, regardless of where you live. If in the US, check with your state regarding CCW. If in Switzerland, you will be OK.

And, according to Obama, ABBAS IS SOMEONE THAT YOU (ISRAEL) CAN LIVE WITH.
And Abbas has said nothing constructive about anything.
He, another aging despot, who robs his people, and keeps them down. Sort of like (my view) many members of the U.S. Congressional Black Caucus. (Note the number of years many of them have been in office, and where their districts are-financially-from when they started; and where they are financially, from when they started).
But, Muslims are shitheads.
AND WHEN JORDAN CONTROLLED JERUSALEM, VERY FEW MUSLIMS –OTHER THAN THOSE WHO WERE NEARBY- WENT TO TEMPLE MOUNT.

Hussein Obama’s legassy. He will be remembered as the man who bowed to barbarians.
Nevertheless, this seems like a false flag to me. ISIS is losing so more destabilization is required. Jordan has no need for war and no reason to start one with Israel.
Traitors deep in US power positions have wanted war from day 1.
We have seen that war in the middle east leads to chaos around the globe. I say we let Israel handle this.
moeped says
You know what, all the shit happening in the world is starting to make me examine the conspiracy theory about “Greater Israel”.
However, I prefer if Israel were to rule the middle east. At least the Jews don’t hate Christians…as much as…others might.
It’s a complicated world.
Steve Williams says
What evidence do you have that Jews hate Christians?
moeped says
I don’t have any evidence but there is evidence that Jews favor Jews above members of other religions. Christians are less sensitive to religious beliefs of others.
Dave says
now that Israeli news sources are allowed to report on the incident, we know the following details
A carpenter working inside an embassy building attacked a guard with a screw driver and injured him.
The guard shot and killed the attacker. a local bystander was mortally injured and later died.
(the reason the Israeli news sources were censored appears to be an attempt to close things in an informal way with the Jordanians, it appears that they don’t want that)
rabrooks says
In a sane world attacking an embassy was considered an act of war and local security would try to prevent it.
