Reuters is reporting that 3 Palestinians were shot dead trying to stab Israelis. One of the incidents occurred near Hebron where an armed Israeli civilian shot and killed a Palestinian terrorist coming at him with a knife.

There were contradictory accounts of one of the shootings, near a Jewish settlement in the West Bank city of Hebron. Israel said a Palestinian attempted to stab an Israeli civilian, who was carrying a gun and then shot and killed the attacker.

But a Palestinian man told Reuters that his daughter, a high school student, witnessed the shooting and said it happened when Jewish settlers attacked an unarmed Palestinian.

LOL. Harrison Ford was actually sick with food poisoning or something during that scene, and asked Spielberg can he just shoot the mofo rather than engage in a sword-fight scene.

“... his daughter, a high school student”

He’d probably stone her if she had said anything different.

Are these some of Clown Prince nobama’s recent “immigrants” settled in a town near you? Look around. Be vigilent. Stay armed.

I believe I read that Israel is encouraging her citizens to get armed- This would put an almost immediate stop to these knife wielding thugs knowing they are bringing a knife to a gunfight-

Sadly, our dear leader wants to disarm us, making us far more susceptible ot just this kind of violence we’re seeing in Israel now

Yes, but the woman is always blamed and punished for the rape anyway, so it’s not that much of a problem, ya Islamophobe. ;’)

OK, I've read the article and a bunch of the follow-on comments, including an Israeli citizen who says the article does not detail the truth on it's still just special categories of former security personnel being armed. This is still very confusing and tough to understand why government officials continue to believe limiting arms improves security. However, the quote below shows a glimmer of common sense:

“In light of the security situation, I have decided to make it easier to obtain a gun permit,” Public Security Minister Gilad Erdan said Tuesday.

“In recent weeks, many citizens helped the Israel Police neutralize terrorists carrying out attacks. Citizens trained in the use of firearms are a force multiplier in the struggle against terror,” he added.

I’m no fan of anyone over in the Middle East but I’m thinking the poor, poor misunderstood Palestinians were just turning their lives around, were aspiring rap artists, were good boys (as grandmom will testify) and didn’t do nuffin.

Well, I did read the other day that they have #blm endorsement since they appear to live oppressed like the #blm’rs. Idiots. The #blm’rs have no clue what hard living is and should be volunteering to clean up the roadsides at every chance they get rather than destroying stuff.

In Israel, the policy is to carry your weapon without a round being chambered. I always thought this was a dangerous policy and I think that even more now. This policewoman was darn lucky she had enough time to rack her pistol and get off a shot, especially since she was wounded in one hand.

That's correct, for some Israeli pistoleros. On the other hand, they teach both the *slingshot* technique for getting a round chambered, and one-handed drills for doing so if one arm is disabled or grabbed.

And, on my last visit there last year [my fifth] I was told *not to bother with that empty chamber nonsense.* I carried a Glock 17 lent to me until I got to my host's residence, whereupon I retrieved my Browning GP and felt much better.

I guess you know about the Molotov Cocktail guy. Betting is that a silenced .22 Ruger 10-22 was involved.

When generations of people live on handouts they turn feral and turn on the hand feeds them then destroy what that hand has built...
