Tel Aviv, Israel — January 21, 2015 … An elite Israeli police unit, which serves both prisons and courts, reacted quickly in capturing a 22-year-old Islamic terrorist from the West Bank city of Tulkarm.
The terrorist boarded bus number 40 in central Tel Aviv and began to attack the driver.
The wounded driver Herzl Biton, 55, a father of three and a bus driver for over 23 years responded by spraying the attacker with mace spray.
Biton, who was stabbed in the chest, was evacuated by Magen David Adom emergency medical services to Ichilov and Tel Hashomer hospitals with the other wounded.
The terrorist, now partly blinded, then stabbed at least 8 passengers on the bus before trying to escape by foot.
The police officers who belong to the Israel Prison Service Nachshon Unit fired a warning shot and then aimed for the terrorist’s legs.
In following strict procedure for detaining an armed attacker, the police acted wisely in not shooting for the head or torso.
Israeli police now have the opportunity of inviting their new friend who was illegally staying in the West Bank for coffee and a chat.
A potent intelligence find and another case of crimes against humanity for Israel to file at the ICC – International Criminal Court.
A Hamas spokesman, Izzat al-Risheq, who is based in Qatar, praised the terror attack.
“The heroic stabbing incident against the Zionist in Tel Aviv is a daring and heroic act,” he reportedly said. “It comes as a natural response to the terrorist occupation crimes against our people.”
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu blamed the Palestinian Authority for Wednesday’s stabbing attack on a Tel Aviv bus, saying the attack was a “direct result of the Palestinian Authority’s venomous incitement against the Jews and their state. The same terror tries to hurt us in Paris, Brussels and everywhere.”
Netanyahu added: “Hamas, Abbas’s partners in an unity government, hurried to welcome this act – the same Hamas that announced it will sue Israel in the ICC.”
Now, THAT'S reporting !!!
Why is Israel doing anything to legitimize the ICC?
Civilized, intelligent people understand that a rabid dog running amok among innocents must be put down with extreme rapidity.
Just to give them some exercise. It also gives the Israelis a public stage for exposing international elite hypocrisy.
Jerusalem needs to abandon its amazing but unsuccessful ‘humanitarian defense’ policy and just KILL OFF all the damned Islamic enemies over there, once and for all. Send them to Alluh in Hell to collect on their 72 virgin rewards for trying to murder Joos and Christians. That’ll make them happy...
UK and USA bombed Dresden almost back to the stone age.
USA bombed Hiroshima and Nagasaki
you win wars and successfully defend your people by killing the enemies who seek to murder you and your families.

That could backfire. Those elites don't give a crap about the appearance of hypocrisy.
