Bad news...I wonder what's this about? Was he killing Jews, Gaza residents or terrorists?

Nothing like tearing your own country apart. The Israeli Govt. has managed to do what no Arab country or the terrorists were able to do. A house always seems to crumble from within.

I'm guessing a more accurate statement would be, "IDF responds to bus terror situation with gunfire, saving 'X' lives.

Israeli media is saying that the soldier was not a terrorist, meaning he was actually an IDF soldier. Now, nothing has been said of his religious backround, whether he was secular or ultra-orthodox

Or Druse. Or none of the above.

Soldier opens fire on bus passengers, kills three

By Jack Khoury, Haaretz Correspondent, and Haaretz Service

A Jewish Israel Defense Forces soldier traveling on a bus in a Druze neighborhood in Sharam opened fire on fellow passengers Thursday afternoon. Three people were reported killed and five wounded.

The soldier, a religious settler, was arrested after the attack.

The shooting apparently took place due to a dispute between the soldier and fellow passengers.

What a tragedy, Jackson. Personally, I'm on the side of the settlers but this murdering of other Israelis by a settler Israeli is heart-breaking.

[The following ad is being brought to you by......www.i love to kill.com.]

Fellow murderers, thieves, rapists, thugs and bored terrorists.

Are you tired of failed attempts at mayhem? Are you bored with typical security problems? Well, pack up your bags and come to Israel. You are looking at the CHANCE OF A LIFETIME to fulfill your desire to have pure crime 24 hours a day! That's right, you can come and do as you like because the government is busy arresting it's 14 year olds for being rude to cops! Since the police are busy elsewhere, they won't be watching YOU! Plus, the jails and prisons are quickly filling up with dangerous old Rabbis and evil young children so there won't be any room left for an hosest murderer just going about trying to fulfill his dreams.

AND what's more........Israel is the MOST CORRUPT Western Government according to a news release just out. Therefore, even IF you are caught and hauled into jail, the government can probably USE YOU as an important player in their Highway to Hell pogrom, oops I mean program, PROGRAM!

So don't delay. This is a limited time only offer. Hope to see you there where CRIME IS KING!!!!

By the way, in case folks don't know, the above post was typed with tearful sarcasm. PLEASE DEAR G-D WE NEED A MIRACLE FROM ABOVE FOR TINY ISRAEL!!! I pray for all the families involved, and for this poor IDF soldier. The IDF was once an army to be proud of. Look what Arik Peres is doing to it now, sigh.
