They should use the same tractor to plow the terrorist's home. Would that not be justice?

This is scary! My son, Jaime and his wife, ride buses to university (HU) every day...except Saturday, of course. This is a major highway. Please pray for Jaime and Nancy to remain safe...and the little one they are expecting!

Battered vehicle bears testimony to attempted attack.

What's up with these captions?

There's a bunch of smashed cars and a dead terrorist. How can this be honestly described as "attempted" ?

Despite their injuries, the police and an armed cab driver fired at the terrorist, mortally wounding him. The would-be murderer died of his wounds shortly afterwards at the Hadassah Ein Kerem Medical Center in the capital.

Enjoy eternity in hell, terrorist scum!

I was drawn to this shot, which spurred an off-topic question:

The make-up job is interesting ... looks like she's got a butterfly on her face. Is that a current fashion over there?

Since nobody else seems to want to tell you,

Next week is the Jewish holiday of Purim.

Since many places have the day off for the holiday, they usually have school/workplace parties for the holiday a few days before the actual holiday.

The holiday is traditionally celebrated with dressing in costume, singing, dancing, eating triangle-shaped filled cookies, reading of the Book of Esther, and excessive drinking. It is extremely common (in Israel) to see people in costume or fancy face paint walking about in the days leading up to Purim and on Purim itself.

The holiday is actually rather pro-2nd amendment.

Thousands of years ago, when the Persian empire (Iran) tried to wipe out all of their Jews by passing a law making it legal to kill Jews and take their property, they we saved after a new law was passed allowing the Jews to take arms from all local armories and defend themselves.

Unfortunately, many Jews completely forgot that lesson in just a few short centuries.
