Jerusalem synagogue shooting: Israel arrests 42 after deadly attack

Seven people were killed in Friday's attack with two more injured in a separate shooting on Saturday.

Seven people have been shot dead at a synagogue in East Jerusalem, the most killed in an attack of this kind for years. At least three more people were injured.

The incident happened in the city's Neve Yaakov neighbourhood at around 20:15 local time (18:15 GMT).
Police described the attacker as a "terrorist" and said he had been "neutralised".
Local media identified him as a Palestinian man from East Jerusalem.

Speaking at the scene, Israeli police commissioner Kobi Shabtai called it "one of the worst attacks we have encountered in recent years".

Israeli worshippers had gathered for prayers at the start of the Jewish Sabbath in a synagogue in the Jewish settlement and were leaving when the gunman opened fire. Police say that officers then shot him dead.

Forensic teams are investigating a white car that appears to have been driven by the gunman.
Palestinian militant groups praised the attack but did not say one of their members was responsible.

That lady is quite strange.

She claims to be Anglo, evangelical christian, uses an arabic screen name (or at least sounds like arabic), shows a great deal of knowledge about Saudi Arabia, the Middle East in general and about the Koran, supports arab political and national causes, etc...

If this happened in reverse - some Israelis attacking innocent worshipers at a Mosque - the antisemites and Israel-haters (and yes, there’s an overlap) would be flocking to this thread in droves.

But because the savages were Palestinian terrorists, and the victims only Jews, it’s radio silence.

P.S. I noticed how other Palestinian groups “applauded” this mass murder.

So I wasn't the only one who noticed that?

You might be thinking of the Israeli raid on the Islamic terror squad.

No. Israel has a long record for terrorism and killing innocent people.

No. Israel has a long record for terrorism and killing innocent people.

Oye. And the Palestinian and HAMAS terrorists seeking to wipe out the Jews are so nice.

No. It was against an Islamic Jihad terror cell, not a "load of kids". But fact, who needs them, right?

If you notice, that poster is getting his Israel news from Al Jazeera.

They are victims.

 

[Lisa558]

They are victims.

Yes, I know the Jews are victims and the Palestinian terrorists want to wipe Israel off the map.

I know one Or two months ago a Palestinian-American journalist was killed reportedly by the Israeli defense forces.

In the past few days there were reports of Palestinians being shot or killed by Israelis.

I consider myself neutral in the Israeli Palestine situation. Let’s remember the Abraham accords folks and Donald Trump of all people bringing together Israel and a number of Muslim countries. Many people from Israel fly to the GCC countries today for vacation.

There remains militarism on both the Israel and Palestine side. The difference is the Israeli military is one of the most powerful in the world and there is affectively no Palestinian state there is certainly no Palestinian military. They have disorganized groups of fighters is what Palestine has which is what is similar to the Zionist of the 1940s having a bunch of groups that were more organized then perhaps the Arabs of today and perhaps stay. The zionists of the 1940s were really proud Jews of the world who just as the proud Arab Muslims and Arab Christians have worked for Arab nationalism and by the way Arab Jews have long been a part of the Arab nationalist cause as well. ..btw Zionist Jews were viewed by the British is terrorists. So this whole thing about Palestine having terrorists or the Israeli defense forces being terrorists that doesn’t help anybody. The word terrorist is politically loaded and it wasn’t really use it seems like throughout much of human history until the 20th century when it was over used and abused one might say.


Barach Goldstein I believe was the name of the Jewish terrorist who killed 30 Palestinian worshipers at a mosque in the 1990s. Both sides have had these types of militaristic people. The point is that both sides have extremists and there are no Palestinian states. Palestine doesn’t have some kind of a organized army like Israel has. And the Israeli defense forces have been viewed as “terrorists” by Palestinians and Americans as well.

Anyways no need to continue to go on if the status quo is going to continue and it’s getting really tiring. The one state solution is the way forward and we’re all gods children the religion of Islam and Judaism Christianity other religions of Abraham.

If the Israeli defense forces did not exist then we would be seeing modern-day Jews in Israel using the same tactics as Palestinians to achieve their aims.

That’s something that some of the pro Israel folks might not realize. But a lot of people who live in Israel understand this even people in the Israeli defense forces know that they belong to an organized army and that the Palestinian people don’t even have an option to join an organized Palestinian army where they can become a pilot or a special forces operator who gets to carry around a machine gun on the streets.


Imagery is everything. And the fact of the matter is you have had for years Jewish soldiers walking around with machine guns around civilian Palestinians- whom are Arab Christians and Muslims. Let’s continue to look at the imagery OK a good chunk of these Israelis are European Jews so now you have these Europeans who are walking around with machine guns where the Arabs have been there for hundreds or thousands of years. Arab Jews, Arab Muslims and Arab Christians have lived in Israel for thousands of years but there are the European Jewish immigrants which is fine… but if you’re going to have a multicultural situation there needs to be a one state solution.

Now if you have a one state solution and you put the machine guns in the hands of the Muslims the Christians and the Jews as one hand and one army. Where the entire group of people belong to one state that would resolve the situation overnight. And throughout the history of Israel and Palestine there’s been plenty of people who have wanted one state.
