After experiencing numerous terror attacks on its roads in the past weeks the most recent one on Sunday morning officials of the Gush Etzion Regional Council were demanding full cellphone coverage on all roads, in order to enable victims of terror attacks and those threatened with violence to call for help, without having to search for a signal.
Earlier Sunday, an Israeli man was stabbed by an Arab terrorist near the haredi community of Metzad in Gush Etzion. Security forces and Magen David Adom teams were immediately dispatched to the scene.
The injured victim was taken to hospital in moderate condition. He was transferred to Hadassah Medical Center in Jerusalem with stab wounds to his upper body.
The victim managed to neutralize the threat himself despite being injured - knocking the knife out of the terrorist's hand and firing his weapon, forcing the terrorists, who were disguised as haredi Jews, to flee - but was forced to drive a half a kilometer before finding a spot that had phone reception in order to report the incident.
Officials of the Council praised the man for his quick thinking and bravery, but stressed that the current situation was a hazard that needed to be dealt with.

Instead of concentrating on cell coverage how about the Israeli government allow unfettered carry of firearms by Jews.
Thank you for your news. Hope you and the wife stay safe.
in the days of the early Christians, they used the sign of a fish. Perhaps now is the time for the JEWS to come up with a secret sign of their own, find one soon. God Bless Israel.
There is body language, language, accent, catch phrases, attitude. It is about as hard for an Arab to pass as a Jew as it is for a Jew to pass as an Arab. The cultures are similar, but too different to easily fake.
Even if they would, I’d still want cell coverage. Communication can be vital. This guy had a gun and used it to defend himself.
Take care & STAY SAFE.........GOD BLESS ISRAEL. We pray for Israel daily.
well that would work. lol
Cell service is NOT the answer:

How much is that in American?
?
Here, "hitching a ride" would mean standing by the side of the road with one's thumb out hoping to be picked up. What does it mean there, riding the bus or perhaps hailing a cab?
Either way, it sounds just frightful!
Same thing as in America. It’s a very common way to travel here.
One of the funniest defenses against the pali's was a few days ago, video of using the Skunk gas on them.
Thanks for the answer. I thumbed when I was young in the early 1970s, but I would not do so now.
In Israel, everyone from age 10 to 80 hitches (’tramps’ in local idiom), although we generally use our index finger rather than our thumbs, because an extended thumb is a gesture similar to a middle finger here.
