Two people were killed and five more injured in a terrorist ramming attack in Jerusalem Friday afternoon.
The attack occurred at 1:27 p.m. Friday at a bus stop in the Ramot neighborhood of the capital.
According to preliminary reports, the terrorist rammed his car into a group of pedestrians who were waiting for a bus on Golda Meir Boulevard, on the edge of Ramot near the Tomb of Samuel (Nebi Samuel National Park).
Witnesses say the terrorist, who has been identified as 31-year-old Issawiya resident Hussein Karaka, has been eliminated.
Emergency first responders from MDA and United Hatzalah were dispatched to the scene to treat the injured.
Two children injured in the attack were initially listed in critical condition, with two other victims listed as being seriously injured, and two in moderate condition.

Another Muslim terrorist.
Israeli retaliation in 3, 2, 1...
I am surprised that, over the years, the Israeli government’s response to these chronic acts of violence has not been a lot harsher.
“has been eliminated”
Love how they don’t sugar coat things there.
I certainly hope so ... and expect so.
My wife and I are on a November cruise which includes Israel.what do you think of the risk to tourists.?
It’s safer than Chicago.
Which port? Haifa?
I day Haifa 2 day Ashdod
Is there any other kind?
I don’t think I’ve ever seen a headline where a Jewish person perpetrated a terror attack on anyone.
Those are both very safe.
If you wait until you think it is safe (if you believe the media especially), then you will never go. The best time to go is right after a major terror event, because people stay away and the prices go down. I spent time a lot of time after both intifada and was rewarded with unbelievable prices and great security. And, by the way, it is a HELL of lot safer in Israel than Chicago, Washinton, L.A., NYC, (in other words ALL U.S. cities. I say, forget the cruise and spend all of the time in Israel!

Hmmmm…..
One incident done by an American immigrant and condemned by the Israeli government.
I suppose that technically, that could count. Nevertheless, I don’t recall hearing about it.
