On other terrorist fronts, a "donkey bomb" attack failed when a donkey laden with explosives was detonated alongside a line of Israeli cars. Several passengers were treated for shock, and light damage was caused. Josh Adler of Efrat told Arutz-7 what happened: "I was on my way to Jerusalem, and I saw a donkey on the road. It appeared both suspicious and dangerous, so I notified the Gush Etzion Emergency Center, and then I continued traveling and saw another donkey, this one with two baskets on it. I wanted to call again, but exactly at that moment it blew up near my car."
In what a passenger in the car behind him described as "miraculous," Adler said that his injuries amounted only to "ringing in the ears and a headache. Nearby and slightly beforehand, an explosive was hurled at a Border Guard jeep; no one was hurt.
Two soldiers killed on Thursday night while they were patrolling the highway south of Hevron were buried today. Corp. Assaf Bitan was laid to rest in the military section of the Afula cemetery, while Corp. Ronald Berer was buried in Rehovot. The funeral of the third victim, Yaakov Naim, was held on Friday in his hometown of Kfar Monash, near Netanya.
Many general terrorist warnings have been received for the coming days, and the police and security services are on alert. A general closure has been imposed on all Arab villages in Judea, Samaria, Gaza and the Jordan Valley, to be removed the day after the elections, early Wednesday morning. The roads to and from these areas, and the Allenby and Rafiach border crossings into Jordan and Egypt, will be totally closed during this period, except for humanitarian emergencies.

I won't be surprised if some animal rights group accuses Israel of cruelty.

Jeez, even the livestock are getting into the act. That place is out of control.
Is there any indication as to the motive of the donkey? Did it leave behind a video or letter extolling its allegiance to Allah and a wish to smite the infidels? Will the donkey's family get the jihadi bonus from Uncle Saddam? Are donkeys even motivated by 72 virgin donkeys in the afterlife? What makes a donkey so desperate that suicide bombing is his only answer?

Are the Pali's running low on fool humans that want to kill themselves? Yeesh. I actually think this is much more abhorrent than the suicide bombers that are at least willing to die for their own cause. This is about as cowardly as it gets.

I live my life a beast of burden
This man, he lives his for attack
Here I am, Dead Donkey Walking
The gate to Allah strapped to my back
Donkey Bomb (x4)
Steely eyed and **cking nuts
He leads me to the vestibule
Just let me go. Jihad ain't me, man
I'm not religious. I'm just a mule

I am the Donkey Bomb
Holy Donkey Bomb
Jihad, Jihaw, Hee Haw
Such evil deeds to go unpunished
My Donkey God will not allow
Soon you will suffer eternal torture
Who's the jackass now?

Where are all the liberal animal rights types?? Likely going before the UN to accuse Israel of animal cruelty. How long before the next resolution? Will the donkey be added to the pali side of the intifada death totals?
