Frightening and incredible news out of Israel this morning: Jerusalem mayor Nir Barkat and his bodyguards reportedly subdued a knife-wielding Palestinian attacker after he stabbed an elderly Jewish man.
Barkat recalled the event: I was traveling in a car next to the IDF Square (Safra Sqaure) when my team suddenly say a terrorist with a knife right next to us. I immediately jumped out of the car together with my team, (my bodyguard) pulled out his gun and together we held the terrorist until security forces arrived, we also attempted to treat the victim.
Watch the security video here, which shows Mayor Barkat in white shirt sleeves in the streets lunging directly at the assailant.
Hey Barak, that's how a REAL leader rolls!
Meanwhile, if this had happened here, Obama would have had a moment of silence for the attacker and called for a ban on knives

This wouldn’t have happened if the Palestinian were given a job and could eat in fancy restaurants.
