A Palestinian gunman has opened fire on an Israeli bus while it was travelling in Jerusalem on Sunday, wounding seven people, police and witnesses said.

"We saw a Palestinian terrorist shoot at us from the outside. He didn't stop shooting," a woman passenger on the bus told Israel radio.

The bus was travelling in Jerusalem's French Hill neighbourhood.

Police sources quoted by the French news agency AFP said the gunman was shot dead by police.

Enough is enough!

Peaceful Islam hard at work again I see ...

What I don't understand is how a Palestinian homeland in that same geographic area will make anyone safer or happier. Will these types of attacks suddenly stop? I don't think so.

Didn't you get the memo? They are no longer to be called terrorists. They are to be called "Freedom Fighters against Zionist occupation".

Shooting attack on Egged bus at French Hill junction in Jerusalem

By Barukh Kra and Haim Shadmi, Ha'aretz Correspondents and Ha'aretz Service

At least 16 people were injured close to 4 P.M. Sunday when one or more gunmen opened fire on Egged bus No. 25 at the French Hill Junction in north Jerusalem.

Four of the injured were said to have sustained moderate-to-serious injuries, and the remainder light injuries.

Police forces and ambulances are at the scene. Jerusalem police chief Mickey Levy said "between one and three terrorists" had opened fire on the bus. Levy added that soldiers at the scene of the attack killed one of the gunmen.

He said that the gunman who was killed was a 34-year-old Islamic Jihad member from Hebron.

Israel Radio reported that there were some 40 people travelling on the bus at the time of the attack.

"We were travelling on Bus No. 25 to Jerusalem. Suddenly they shot at us. We saw the terrorist shooting. He kept shooting. He didn't stop," one passenger on the bus told Israel Radio.

The injured were taken to Hadassah University Hospital Mt. Scopus, Hadassah Ein Karem, and Sha'arei Zedek Hospital.

There have been several attacks at the French Hill junction this year. On February 22, an Israeli was shot and wounded by a Palestinian gunmen there, and on March 27, a Hamas suicide bomber blew himself up at the junction, injuring some 30 people.

Or, in BBC-speak, those nice young men from Palestine.

What do you mean enough is enough? The Zionists have murdered ten times as many people as the Palestinians.

Time to give them a homeland. After all, this is the sort of government we want to see more of.

Islam is a peaceful religion. George W. Bush told me so.

Document your specious claim, or be known as a liar and apologist for Islamic terrorists.

"The Zionists have murdered ten times as many people as the Palestinians."

If true, it apparently was not enough. ( I have lost any sympathies I ever had for the Palestinians.)

[ConservativeyetHotChick]

Well, I'm sure as soon as Ramadan starts, the Palestinian "Freedom Fighters" will cease from killing until the end of the Muslim holy period. After all, the religion of Islam teaches peace and love for ALL of mankind.

[Bogey78O]

Palestinians? You mean Jordan's b##ches, right?

[Bogey78O]

And another thing. We accidentally kill a kid who a terrorist uses as a shield and they want to kill every American and we're falling all over ourselves to apologize but when they purposely kill several thousand America civilians they dance in the freaking streets promising more will die. As far as I'm concerned they are subhuman savages.

YAWN....

In PC-speak, three Arab gentlemen from Palestine.

[veronica]

YAWN...

Is that what you said on 9-11?

[AAABEST]

What do you mean enough is enough? The Zionists have murdered ten times as many people as the Palestinians.

Obviously they haven't gone far enough, it seems they haven't wiped out the entire nest of vermin yet.

What we see happening against Israel today, we'll see in our streets in the future. The savages learn what works and they see that the world turns a blind eye (just another chapter in the Palestinian fight for freedom, yawn. Israel brought it on herself. Just like the apologists are now saying, America brought Sept. 11th on herself.)

To think that the terrorist apologists sold the West the lie that the Moslems in Chechnya and Croatia were the persecuted ones. Wherever there's a Moslem population, there's trouble.
