Report: 2 Terrorists Shot While Attacking Jews at Joseph’s Tomb (Shechem, Israel)

Palestinian media and security officials are reporting that IDF soldiers on Thursday shot two Arab terrorists taking part in attacks against Jewish visitors to Joseph's Tomb at Shechem (Nablus) in Samaria.

The IDF allows Jews to visit the tomb of the Biblical figure only once a month for Rosh Chodesh, the new month festival, out of security concerns in the hostile city. The entrance of Jews on buses in the dead of night evidently turned into a target for Arab rioters in the pre-dawn nighttime hours of Thursday morning. […]

According to the 1993 Oslo Accords, Joseph’s Tomb was supposed to remain under full Israeli control.

But in 2000 amid the Second Intifada terror war, hoards of rioters invaded the tomb—which housed a synagogue and a yeshiva—ransacked it and burned it to the ground, while parading Jewish holy books and desecrating them. Local Muslims later declared the site as a mosque, as the IDF reduced the Jewish presence to a once-monthly visit.

Muslims have no respects from anything that doesn’t come from their perverted religion of conquest, murder, and rape.

A previous Pope kissed their Koran, so they must be just like Catholics, right?

He was a Muslim, too, and anyway, he’s buried in Hebron at the Cave of the Patriarchs, and not in Shechem. That’s a Muslim holy man, but Random prayers desecrated it, so to purify it they had to burn it to the ground, slit an Israeli soldier’s throat and watch him bleed out, and also murder a rabbi. Now it’s holy enough to be a mosque again, as it really always was.

This is the actual argument the Muzzies use for Joseph’s, except for the slit a throat and kill a rabbi part, which I added because it’s exactly what they did.

“The Palestinian Arab Ma’an News Agency identified the two terrorists as 23-year-old Iyad Muin Mohammed Kalbuna, who was shot in his left foot, and 24-year-old Mohammed Ghassan Hammad Hashash of the Balata “refugee camp” who was shot in the thigh.

Both terrorists were taken to Rafidia Hospital for treatment, it said.”

Damn! Now we’ll have to feed them.
