JERUSALEM (AP) -- A passenger on an Israeli bus opened fire on Thursday, killing three people, an Israeli police spokesman told Channel 2 TV, in an apparent argument among passengers. Five other people were wounded. The TV report said the gunman, in an Israeli army uniform, was captured by police. The gunfire erupted as the bus was on a road in Israel's north near the town of Shfaram. The spokesman told Channel 2 that the gunman was a soldier, three people were killed and several others wounded, and the gunman was captured. Channel 2 said the incident was not a terror attack.

(2) Timothy McVeigh was not a Christian - he had renounced the religion he was raised in. His last words were a recitation of a famous agnostic poem - Invictus by William Henley.
This settler was part of a ultra-right religious sect of judaism. Some believe that Israel shouldnt even legally exist. This guy is comparable to McVeigh. Why do you defend him?
Sorry, I must have missed that praise. Would you mind posting the link, please?
Thanks in advance.
Yes and Yes.
HA, that is so lame.
The first couple pages are full of links to articles such as "Arafat Tells Security Staff: Kill as Many Jewish Settlers as Possible" and "Gunmen Burst Into Home, Kill 5 Israeli Settlers."
Oh, and page one of the search includes "Settlers Kill 500 Indians" and "Abebooks Search Results - Yaka - Here slavery exists, and white settlers kill Africans for land."
LOL
According to the article he was a member of KaCh or Kahane Chai, which is not a religious sect but a political organization dedicated to the principles of Meir Kahane.
The group contains religious and non-religious members.
Some believe that Israel shouldnt even legally exist.
Only one group of religious Jews believes that Israel should not exist - the Neturei Karta.
They actively support the PLO.
In her mind, an appropriate husband is one who intends to spend his adult years in full-time Jewish religious study.
In this country there are many students on food stamps.
Do you have any basis to believe that this man believed that Israel shouldn't legally exist, or are you just using the opportunity to smear an entire sector of Israel's population?
Oh, and exactly to what "ultra-right religious sect of Judaism" did this man belong?
"Eden Tzuberi, 19, was an activist in the outlawed extreme-right Kach movement. Tzuberi went AWOL a month ago to protest the disengagement plan."
Kach
Kahane Chai
Description
Stated goal is to restore the biblical state of Israel. Kach (founded by radical Israeli-American rabbi Meir Kahane) and its offshoot Kahane Chai, which means "Kahane Lives," (founded by Meir Kahane’s son Binyamin following his father’s assassination in the United States) were declared to be terrorist organizations in March 1994 by the Israeli Cabinet under the 1948 Terrorism Law. This followed the groups’ statements in support of Dr. Baruch Goldstein’s attack in February 1994 on the al-Ibrahimi Mosque— Goldstein was affiliated with Kach—and their verbal attacks on the Israeli Government. Palestinian gunmen killed Binyamin Kahane and his wife in a drive-by shooting in December 2000 in the West Bank.
They are banned/outlawed in Israel. Tzuberi was apparently a formerly secular Israeli with severe mental problems who was kicked out of the army (or went AWOL), linked up with the banned theocratic Kach movement somehow and then went nuts and shot random people in a bus.
The Yeshivot and Kollelim struggle for funds and if a student is there just filling a seat, they won't allow him to stay. Either you learn or you're out. Token gestures aren't accepted or tolerated. Usually, there are waiting lists, especially for Kollel bachurim, so they won't tolerate a slacker.
My nephew is at Yeshivat Moshe..it's a smaller Yeshiva with limited capacity and a waiting list a mile long. The level of commitment required, is incredible.
What did I state indicating defense for these killings? My comments were directed at the overall situation threatening Israel's national security coming from frenzied gangs of jihadic killers.
(Arutz Sheva) Jew Kills 4 Arabs; Media Links Murder with Protests
Married men study in Kollel...unmarried men study in a Yeshiva...several Yeshivot have their own Kollel. However, typically, married students, study together. They don't usually study with unmarried students.
He was a member of Neturei Karta? I think you are confused.
I know the majority of kollel students are sincere and dedicated. Unfortunately, there are a few who give the institution a bad name.
I say yasher koach to your nephew. It's Torah learning that keeps the nation alive.
Sounds like the name of a Karate dojo.
