will this also be classified by the U.S. as a "traffic incident?"
2. Oh my goodness!
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (11.05.14)
I wish the victims of this horrific act of Arab terrorism a speedy and complete recovery. But -- being me -- I cannot help but wonder. Wouldn't it be simply AWFUL if a truck, or car, or bulldozer driven by a Jew were to "accidentally" run over fifteen or twenty Arabs waiting peacefully at a bus stop? Heaven forfend! That would be a -- an -- er -- ahem -- cough -- truly HORRIFIC tragedy. Wouldn't it?

Why do something that risky? Rather use skills that you have.....station sharp shooters at vantage points along all Light Rail stops....any vehicle heading off the road to the stop is taken out. Job done! Smokin' gun to do it again....and again....and again? Oh and btw: keep the rioters locked up and isolated totally in al axa moskie for the next 6 months....those that survive can have another 6 months for solid behaviour.

Would you be referring to the "First Annual Rachel Corrie Dozer Dodge?"
8. Sensible option.
Gabe ,   Canada   (11.05.14)
Clear the Temple Mount from all buildings and move them to Gaza for reassembly. Tourism would benefit the Gaza economy. It would be a win-win deal for everyone concerned.

10. Hamas is strungled in Gaza so those terorists
Lily   (11.05.14)
try to make their ways in Jerusalem. Cici made sure of that. It has nothing to do with car accidents, it has more to do with Sweden bursed of support and the one side demand in the UN.
11. The latest terrorist
Menahem ,   Jerusalem, Israel   (11.05.14)
Punishment for crimes of this nature, in addition to shooting the terrorist dead; his entire family (wives, children, parents, sisters, brothers) should be thrown out of Israel permanently. A place can be found for them; they have many friends. If there is no such law here yet, one should be passed.
12. Didn't King Bibi the Weak just announce that regarding
A ,   Belgium   (11.05.14)
Jerusalem, ""no side should take the law into its own hands."? It seems the "palestinians" have grasped the law of terror, the only law they know, with both hands and are shoving into the face of the Israeli administration, who, in the meantime, treats terrorist families in Israeli hospitals instead of doing the utmost , including annexation of Judea and Samaria and repatriation of the Jordanian squatters who call themselves "palestinians" to their homeland across the river. Why should Israelis be afraid to walk around freely in the capital city of Jerusalem, or anywhere else in Israel for that matter? Moshe Feiglin for PM NOW!
13. Staying on the receiving end.
tiki ,   belgium   (11.05.14)
Terror <>Terror! That's the only language Arabs understand! As long as Israeli's don't start driving into innocent Arab citizens in streets & on bus stops this won't stop! The world will anyway condemn Israel for what it did or didn't do, so don't mind them. They've used up their morality credit a long time ago.
14. Just keep these nutty peace talks floating.

This terrorist was a brother of Shalit's captor.
15. Driving a car into pedestrians is a new Arab trend
KAHANA WAS RIGHT! ,   Arabs are dangerous   (11.05.14)
The only solution is to get all Arabs out of Jerusalem, or better yet, out of Israel.

Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (11.05.14)
So were a Jew were to drive his car, or truck, or bulldozer into a crowd of jaw-dripping rioting Arabs in Jerusalem, that's civil unrest, too, right? And were Israel to dissolve the Waqf and blow up the hideous blue eyesore called the Al Aqsa mosque, well that's just a response to the Jordanians having blown up 47 synagogues in 1948, including the ancient and beautiful Hurva Synagogue. Payback is a bitch. And revenge, as Machiavelli pointed out, is a dish best eaten cold. We've been waiting a very long time to extract revenge for the destruction of our synagogues.
17. Israel'll continue to treat Haniyeh's family in Israeli hosp
ab   (11.05.14)
itals,it's dhimmi duty so well understood by Israeli progressives
18. TO THE ISRAELI AUTHORITIES....
FO ,   Belgium   (11.05.14)
Keep treating Haniyeh's entire smala. At the end he will be unable not to fall in love with the state of Israel ! Don't repeat the mistake of the past ! Would have Hitler been invited to eat a good piece of gefilte fish, he too would certainly have fallen in love with the Jewish people !
19. Preempting necessary
Brod ,   USA   (11.05.14)
Israel's cities should unleash undercover agents to room the streets and preempt the Arab Islamist-Jihadist Terrorists before they cause mass murders.
20. Outlaw Hamas
Doodad ,   Canada   (11.05.14)
Time to outlaw and jail ALL Hamas members.

The only "land" you and the "palestinians" will ever be entitled to is east of the Jordan River. Get rid of the phony Hashemite racist king and his apartheid kingdom ("palestinians" DO enjoy equal rights with the rest of their islamic bretheren in Jordan, don't they?) and make yourself at home... out of Israel. Not good enough for you? Stay in Damsacus than and wait until either Assad or ISIS slits your throat.
22. #1 not even that.
Yerushalmi ,   Jerusalem   (11.05.14)
A honest muslim drove by just as a bunch of settlers and soldiers were preparing to eat poisonous mushrooms, got shot by teh evil juice.
23. Dear Politicians,
Savid ,   Israel   (11.05.14)
Our brothers are being killed by coward terrorists on our own streets. Not to be able to walk on the streets of our capital safely should be the end of talking and acting by all means immediately.
24. Why
ky   (11.05.14)
is a sane person asked to make a comment on this. What can one add to comments that are basically insane and can never be put into reality. Bloodthirsty revenge is an understandable reaction to an abominable act but it just adds to the insanity. that spirals out of control. . There are two issues that are clear in my mind. The first is the right of Jews living in the region to defend themselves from the racial hatred that exists amongst Arabs. The second is the right of Arabs in the region to live under their own laws and government. If we are seeking sane questions and answers. then it is the above that we must address.
25. To # 2
Abdel Karim Salim ,   Jerusalem   (11.05.14)
Your foolish assumption convinces me that your closed mind does not comprehend the roots of what is happening . Slamming an Israeli huge truck against a bunch of Arabs waiting for a bus would simply exacerbate the already-worsening problem between Israelis and Palestinians . Rather the Israeli government should be wise enough to consider settling the conflict once and for all by letting the Palestinian people get their right to self determination instead of giving them limited autonomy and fake independence . Israel gave back Siniai to Egypt in return for a genuine peace so why should n't it do the same regarding the Palestinians ? Otherwise Israel should expect more of such acts .
26. leftist propaganda
ethel ,   ny us   (11.05.14)
Leftist writer for leftist newspaper tries to trick Jews by saying east Jerusalem over and over again. The truth is their is no place as east Jerusalem and definitely no thing as Arab east Jerusalem. Just another attempt by leftists to divide Jerusalem by repeating a lie over and over. The fact is their only one Jerusalem capitol of Israel.
27. To #25 Abdel Karim Salim
FO ,   Belgium   (11.05.14)
Just to refresh your memory, if you don't mind. The Sinai Desert was and is Egyptian territory, while Jerusalem, the so-called West Bank, Jerusalem and even the Golan Heights are part of the Mandate for Palestine, voted unanimously by ALL the 51 members of the League of Nations in 1922. This decision granted the Jews the irrevocable right to settle anywhere on the territory mentioned above, for creating their independent state. It became International Law and was even reaffirmed by Article 80 of the United Nations Charter. Calm down, Abdel Karim, because at the same time the League of Nations voted two other mandates, for creating two new independent states, Arab states, namely Iraq and Syria-Lebanon. There was never question about a Palestinian nation or state. Even the illegal (because of its own Article 80) UNGA partition proposal of November 1947, doesn't mention a Palestinian state or nation. This fiction started somewhere with the Six Days War. And to end, a disturbing question to you, Abdel Karim, why during the Jordanian occupation of Jerusalem and the then so-called Cis-Jordan, why didn't, what you call the Palestinian, fight against the occupier to gain their independence?
28. #2 Why a truck or a bulldozer?
(11.05.14)
That's nothing. Israeli warplanes have "accidentally" killed hundreds of civilians so your joke about 20 Arabs "accidentally" run over by a Jewish truck falls somewhat flat.
29. Hope the settlements and apartheid are worth it
