There, he would've gotten the chair.

otherwise YNet's headlines would blare "Jewish Terrorist"

They say "Israeli", but in Flint Michigan it is unlikely that he is Jewish at all. Flint has the largest Muslim population in the U.S.

I sure hope so. Don't send the filth back here. What an evil hateful bastard. Bet his mama is real proud of him.

from an altitude of 1000 meters.

their way to Israel, first Taitel now this, I know Israeli police force r to convinient to psycho but amerikans if this is the best import to Israel than Israel should at least demand visa, it can work both ways not just toward amerika.

Why isn't YNet blaming this on the Haredim? I'm sure they would like to, except that a Haredi in Flint, MI would stick out like Michael Moore at a, well, anywhere.

In the amount of people executed. But no one he attacked died in Virginia, so no death penalty there,

#3&4 Michigan has not had the death penalty since 1846 and Los Angeles, New York City, and Chicago are # 1-2-3- The population in Michigan includes about 25,000-30,000 people of Arabic descent living in Dearborn. This is the highest density of Middle Eastern people living in one city outside the Middle East. Most are NOT Muslim. Please do some basic homework before stating facts!

Why do you call Teitel psycho? Is there something you know? The only thing the rest of us know is that he started undergoing psychiatric treatment after a month of "questioning" by the SHABAK.

Had he managed to get to Israel, there is little chance he would have been returned to face justice in the US as Israel typically will refuse to extradite criminals wanted in the US , demand that they be tried by an Israeli cour or do nothing at all. A good example is Rabbi Avrohom Mondrowitz who is accused of 100 counts of child molestation in the US. Mondrowitz has been harbored in Israel for over 25 years with Israeli courts refusing to extradite him to the USA to face charges.

never brought a victim back to life. On the contrary, in places where mass murderers are sentenced to real life sentences(without parole), authorities have better odds and a longer time frame to profile and analyse the methods and motives that evade contemporary justice. There is also a better chance of extracting a confession for unsolved crimes and disappeared persons, as other inmates are more likely to cooperate as informants outside of the capital punishment system.

There is no dealth penalty in Michigan. In response to commenter 3, Flint does not have the largest Muslim population in the U.S.; not even close. And check your logic: even if that were true, how would it make it unlikely that someone else would be Jewish? Flint's Jewish community has shrunk along with the rest of the city but is still strong and proud.

deerborn michigan has the largest muslin arab population in the U.S.

Yeah, Johan. What about all those Nazi war criminals that Germany refuses to even try, let alone extradite? Got any thoughts on that?

A spokesman for U.S. Customs and Border Protection said the agency's officers arrested Abed al-Azzam, a 34-year-old Israeli citizen

The Associate Press and Haaretz identified the suspect as "Abed al-Azzam, a 34-year-old Israeli citizen". Has anyone heard of him or from where he came in Israel?

Local TV report is that he is from Nazareth or Ramle.

Maybe because he confessed to all sorts of murders and attempted to murders and professes to hate Arabs, Christians, and secular Jews. Sounds like a psycho to me.

He's an Arab, so here comes the Haaretzz spin-meisters to his defense. I can't wait to read the Levy / Hass articles chastising the way the "Zionist government" treated him and his family forcing him into a life of psychopathic misadventures. The pending Haaretz editorial will demand an "independent and transparent international investigation" as to what it is about the Jew-government that forces innocent Arabs to commit such crimes.

My apologies to all Flint-ites, I did indeed have Dearborn in mind - sorry. Also, I incorrectly said "Muslim" when I should have said "Arab". HOWEVER...the words "I told you so" still come to mind......

The Story. Earth To Sarah. Come in Ms Moonbat. This story is about a possible serial killer who happens to have a dual American-Israeli citizenship. He could be Jewish but he might be Arab. If he's Arab I bet plenty of posters on Ynetnews will have a say about that fact. You know the drill "...dirty rotten filthy Arab terrorists..... etc etc and all that!" Nevertheless he's not guilty unless convicted in an American court of law. Let's see how this works out before we play the anti-semite card.

I saw the report of a serial killer caught in the US and he is Israeli. Well by the name he is an Arab and it seems he hasn't lived in Israel for a long time. Palestinians don't like to say they are Israeli, so why don't they say the truth and say a Palestinian? All of a sudden it is important to say Israeli, and we can't say Arab? In the end people will think he was a Jew and label all of us racists and killers.

Does this sound like a Jewish name to you? Probably an Israeli Arab, most likely Christian (with a name like Elias).

If he is Israeli, they should say Arab Israeli - to just say Israeli is to imply he is Jewish. This is more cowardice on the part of the media, and more effort to sully the name of the Jewish people.

Arabs seem to have this obsession with knives and surprise stabbings.... Can somebody explain what is it in their culture that encourages this phenomenon?
