This is the moment an off-duty Israeli soldier and a special anti-terror officer shot dead a Palestinian terrorist who had killed three Israelis and injured more than 40 by ramming a bulldozer into buses and cars on one of west Jerusalem's busiest streets.
The off-duty soldier, seen in the foreground of the below photograph, climbed on the moving bulldozer and shot the man, who slumped over the steering wheel.
'Liquidated': An armed man clings to the bulldozer after shooting dead the terrorist
The off-duty soldier, his gun clearly visible, climbs higher on the cab as the driver can be seen slumped over through the windshield

Warning! This is a high-volume ping list.
Don’t mess with Texas ... or Israel.
Glock perfection ?
Good job, soldier!!!
By the way, that is not a bulldozer, it is a rubber-tired loader.
MAN sometime I love Brit media that good photos DAMN
reporters... it’s a front loader, not a bulldozer.
From another story on this, apparently that’s not even the soldier’s weapon. He got that pistol from another passerby—probably the guy behind him on the backhoe, I guess—and used it.

But the press everywhere either wants to sensationalize an event (and bulldozer sounds so much scarier than frontloader), or are so totally ignorant of anything outside of their urban apartment/townhouse lifestyles that they just can't tell the difference (”It's big, it's yellow, and it has a Caterpillar logo. It must be a bulldozer”).
Anyway, other than a “good shot” shout out, that's my 2 cent's worth.
Excellent training in Israel. That soldier is a professional hero.

No “liquidation” is the police shooting in the back EIGHT times the wrong man who is prostrate on the ground.
When this was reported this morning on both CNN and MSNBC, they simply reported, “man in bulldozer strikes multiple cars killing two”.
They attempted to portray it as just some loony guy from Isreal going bonkers. No mention that he was Pali, muslim, or a terrorist. The press is not just the enemy of America.
There is a side view video of this incident. In it, you can see the cop in black trying to reach into the cab to get the terrorist. The blue shirt guy, takes the side arm from the cop and cocks it, sticks his arm into the cab. In another video, this time from the rear, you can see his arm and then several lovely puffs of smoke and dust appear to come from the terrorist. The bad guy then leans to the right and fights for a second and then he falls to the left, inert and liquidated.
Another dirtbag bites the dust...
One does not “live” with cockroaches.
The Pali’s are cockroaches and need to be expurgated from the WB and Gaza.
Ask Rachel Corrie what a bulldozer is. She could tell you the difference between a bulldozer and a front-end loader.
To the MSM, “bulldozer” = “big yellow thing with a pushy scoopy whatchamacallit on the front.” Not that a loader like that isn’t a very dangerous weapon...for one thing, those loaders can put on a fair turn of speed, probably, what, 20+ mph wide open? That’s a lot of mass moving that fast.

They want to paint this event as Rachel Corrie’s revenge. Poetic justice as evil Israelis are killed with a bulldozer just like they do to the palestinians and American peaceniks.
