Pictures like these need to be shoved in the face of every childish idiot blathering on about the "plight" of the poor widdle Philistines and how Israel is such a big fat meanie.
Personally, I can't look at them right now. I don't want my coworkers to see me cry.

Check out the comments at HuffPo's thread on this story. Although a number of people defend Israel, most of the posters either make excuses for the terrorist killer or worse, defend his actions.
It's quite disturbing to read, but not unusual.

re: #11 mama winger
As was stated on the other threads, Terrorists exist even when you give them all the land, citizenship, health care, driver's licenses, etc. These stupid "bandaids" are not the root of the issue.
Thus, "one state" won't work, and even "Two-States" won't work. Further this is proof that its not about the roads, its not about the checkpoints, its not about "occupation", (as this person as an israeli ciizen had full rights, and didn't have to deal with the non-citizen issues)....its not about anything other than an religious and cultural hatred of Jews, and desire to murder every last Israeli.
I just hope that the Israeli and American People and Gov wake up to this.

They merely assume Israel must have done something even worse to drive them to this horrible act. Just must have.
Because otherwise, that would make the Palestinian terrorists pure evil, and they just can not believe that. It would have a domino effect on their entire worldview if they allow themselves for one second to believe that.

Looking at these pictures I am reminded of what Israel is up against.
They are grossly outnumbered in a really bad neighborhood.
No amount of appeasement will satisfy the Palestinians as things stand.
When Israel is attacked , the terrorists are portrayed often as just poor desperate people.
If Israel retaliates it is framed as a provocation.
At the UN & academia, anti Israeli screeds are tres chic.

Olmert, Barak: Demolish terrorists' homes
After the shooting rampage at Mercaz Harav seminary in March left eight students dead, Defense Minister Ehud Barak called for the demolition of the terrorist's home in east Jerusalem. It was never carried out.
Following Wednesday's deadly terror attack in Jerusalem which left three Israelis dead and dozens more wounded, Barak reiterated his position.
In a letter released by his military secretary, Brig. Gen. Eitan Dangut, Barak wrote that the defense establishment and government must not fail to respond to a situation wherein a terrorist bearing an Israeli ID carries out a nationalistically- motivated attack in the heart of Israel.
Earlier in the day Prime Minster Ehud Olmert issued a similar call to raze the home of 31-year-old Hossam Dawyyat, the Palestinian bulldozer driver who carrie out the attack.
The prime minister also maintained that the social security benefits of the terrorist's family should be annulled.
Good idea.

Some people like to kill Jews. It is as simple and as ghastly as that.
And some others like to watch them at their demonic work, and imagine that they are the ones doing it. (Some of those whose refrain is "It's always Israel's fault" come to mind.)
As Wrath said, there is no way to satisfy the haters. No matter how far you bend over backward to "appease" them, there will always be one more "insult", one more "injustice", or one more "apostasy" which they must avenge at all costs to justify themselves to themselves. Ultimately, it is all about their need for power, their lust for destruction, and their dreams of conquest.
To me, the saddest thing about this is in the lower right corner of the picture at the top of this page. Isn't that a small child's toy?
Is it a marker of a small, innocent life ravaged, or even snuffed out, by this act of an evil man? (I do not call it insanity, as that would be an insult to people with real emotional problems they can't help having.)
According to a recent story I read re the Heller decision and comparing U.S. violent crime statistics to the rise of violent crime in Israel, approximately 118,000 Israeli citizens have the equivalent of a CCW, and the number is growing every day.
To judge from these photos, it isn't growing fast enough.

Instead of taking the upfront cash, it would be smarter (as the arabs did) to run a pipeline and make them pay for it from us.
You don't give them the cow, you make them pay for the milk.
If we had kept this tech to ourselves, at the same time that people speculate that oil is running out, we would ensure that we were the energy providers for the rest of history. We would have the power of West and the Power of being the sole energy providers.

What was that rabbi's saying again, that peace is not the absence of war, but the presence of justice?
May G-d and the IDF bring every ounce of Justice to bear, and may the backs of the barbarians and their supporters be broken. I am so very, very, very tired of this garbage.

Yow, reminds me of the terrorist and his tank rampage through San Diego. Schmuck even said to a friend that "Oklahoma was good stuff", apparently about the Oklahoma City bombing that happened a few weeks before.
The pictures and the videos are just so alarming with regards to what the Israelis are living with on a daily basis. I don't think I could live so close to the front lines as they do.
Damn, sane people should not let terrorists drive large vehicles.

What's the reaction in Gaza? Are people handing out candy to passing motorists? Celebrating in the streets?
I don't know about Gaza's reaction, but the HuffPo story interestingly contained this tidbit:
Dwayat's aunt stood on the family balcony ululating and screaming "he is a martyr." Other relatives sat quietly nearby, and several dozen people gathered in front of the home.

Their response;

You know, the ones who couldn't believe Nixon won in '72 because
"Absolutely everybody I know voted for McGovern"?
Show them a halo over Obambi's head, and their legs begin to tingle, and they imagine that they are being Contacted By The Lightworker.
The mental/emotional resemblance between Obama's supporters, in fact the entire "progressive" crowd, and previous examples of "Popular Delusions And The Madness Of Crowds" like "UFO contactees"- and the Jim Jones "Peoples' Temple" cult- are so close as to be genuinely frightening.

Olmert, Barak: Demolish terrorists' homes
Good idea.
My understanding is that the current government of Israel is more corrupt than usual, and that Olmert took foreign "business donations".
I'm an American, and in this case I'd like to influence Israeli policy with a "business donation" of my own. If I want to see this resolution made into law, to whom in the Knesset must I send my check? I don't have much spare funds at the moment, but I could at least send enough to buy somebody lunch.

Also indirectly, the russians, french, germans, and even the chinese will foment divisiveness and thereby "support" these evil cretins one way or another. Of course ism, the un, the red cross, al reuters, ap, the nyt, wapo, and many others defend, incite, and support these nasty people. It is mind boggling and absolutely distressing to realize the few peoples and organizations that support Israel. imo, if you don't love and support the Jews and Israelis, you are against them.

Exactly. We are going to see more "SJS" appearing incidents, everyone needs to be prepared. I will link my interpretation again above. Also note that there is quite a bit of infighting going on.
See Memri regarding the "Gulf Arabs" calling out the "Northern Arabs" for being in thrall of Iran.
While this might sound positive it's really not - whenever they get to infighting there are always more terror events as each side tries to "one up" the other.

Appeasers are the enablers of this sort of thing. They are the ones that give it moral sanction and thus give life to such thugs. "We're all Palestinians Now", I saw that quoted here on lgf recently, but don't recall the source. In their face!
This reminds me of a quote from Ayn Rand on appeasement.
I wondered, even in those years, which is morally worse: evil—or the appeasement of evil, the cowardly evasion that leaves an evil unnamed, unanswered and unchallenged. I was inclined to think that the second is worse, because it makes the first possible. I am certain of it today. [The Ayn Rand Letter / The Lessons of Vietnam]

re: #185 MacGiolaPhadraig
In discussing Augustine's use of the term "concupiscence" he [Calvin] writes:our nature is not only destitute of all good, but is so fertile in all evils that it cannot remain inactive. Those who have called it concupiscence have used an expression not improper, if it were only added, which is far from being conceded by most persons, that everything in man, the understanding and will, the soul and body, is polluted and engrossed by this concupiscence; or, to express it more briefly, that man is of himself nothing else but concupiscence.(Institutes, Vol. I, Bk. II, Chap. 1, Para. 8; Allen translation.)
This is what is called "taking a dim view," I think.

I don't have a problem with that as long as a baggie of pureed body parts is given to each member of his extended clan.
When I was very young, 1st grade probably, we lived in an East Texas farming town. Down the railroad tracks was a large pig pen. I would go and watch the pigs.
I have a image of tossing the body into the middle of such a pig pen, then tying the ululating aunt to the rails so she'd have to watch.
After a while, toss the aunt in too.

Yoch, the skeptics will scoff, but I find it very pleasant to sit down and have a good honest talk about literary, theological, philosophical things. We all don't have to agree, just play by the rules. There is something deeply un-theological and anti-human about the Islamist who wants none of that, at least nothing that can be construed as offensive, and wants to "contribute" to the philosophical world by forcibly hacking at everyone involved in the conversation with a scimitar, real or metaphorical.
Picture the scene. Here is a group of gentlemen having a civilized but rigorous conversation, and in barges some ignorant hyena from the desert, waving around his book, his prophet, and his sword, and wanting to Take Charge of the proceedings provided everyone first bow to him and cough up some dough. I completely understand the impulse to just cap him right there. Spares you the misery of having to fend off the glinting sword at every turn in the conversation.

Affidavit detailing the evidence against Gagnon (the former stepfather charged with concealing evidence)
Warning! Extremely graphic and disturbing!These beasts should not be allowed to continue polluting this world for one second longer than necessary. Change the law and start hanging child predators en masse, it is the only way.
"Kindness to the cruel is cruelty to the kind" was never more true than in these cases.
At least they have uncovered this one. When I was actively investigating cults we ran into rings like this all the time. If it had anything to do with "cultic" behavior -- wearing masks, staging rituals, killing animals -- we were told it was all "fantasy" or "coached" testimony. There was a perv couple who used to write articles for pedophile magazines who would show up as defense "experts". If it is just adult pervs dragging their kids into a "swingers" ring, well, that's "believable". The kids are just as destroyed and/or dead and it doesn't matter what the trimmings consist of. There is more of this than most people can possibly imagine and I know of at least one case in which a perp has managed to entrench himself in a high security position via blackmail of politicos and other high-prophile creeps like himself.
Plus, if we point out that there are millions of little girls in the Islamic world being dragged into sex at age 9 because of the example set by the Prophet (piss be upon him) we are being "racist". Or we are "insulting their religion".

Also, there is a book called "Lords of the Levee," about machine politicians Hinky Dink Kenna and Bathhouse John Coughlin, who ruled the First Ward (the red light district) for many years.
A great companion book to "Lost Chicago" is the biography of Richard Nickel - "They All Fall Down". He spent his final years photographing the architectural wonders of Chicago before they were lost to the wrecking ball. Many of the great pieces of architecture were destroyed by Mayor Daley. Unfortunately, Nickel was killed in one of the buildings during the process of demolition while documenting the process. He saved many pieces of Louis Sullivan's buildings - where they now sit in a field in Edwardsville IL.

Chris Satullo: A not-so-glorious Fourth
U.S. atrocities are unworthy of our heritage.Put the fireworks in storage.
Cancel the parade.Tuck the soaring speeches in a drawer for another time.
This year, America doesn't deserve to celebrate its birthday. This Fourth of July should be a day of quiet and atonement.
For we have sinned.
We have failed to pay attention. We've settled for lame excuses. We've spit on the memory of those who did that brave, brave thing in Philadelphia 232 years ago.
The America those men founded should never torture a prisoner.
The America they founded should never imprison people for years without charge or hearing.
The America they founded should never ship prisoners to foreign lands, knowing their new jailers might torture them.
Such abuses once were committed by the arrogant crowns of Europe, spawning rebellion.
Today, our nation does such things in the name of our safety. Petrified, unwilling to take the risks that love of liberty demands, we close our eyes.
We have done such things, on orders from the Oval Office. We have done them, without general outrage or shame.
Abu Ghraib. Guantanamo. CIA secret prisons. "Rendition" of prisoners to foreign torture chambers.

Don't know. It relates, in a way, to your last comment in your ongoing with buzzsaw.
It's a 1986, Israeli-made, romantic drama starring Tom Hanks in his first foray away from comedy. He's a US pilot in the RAF during the North Africa campaign, before Pearl Harbor. In Jerusalem, he and a Sephardic girl fall in love. The story's plot revolves around the reaction of many (though not all) in her family.
It's a gem. It's touching. It's wonderful. The ending makes one long (in vain) for a sequel.

From where I've been observing today, most Americans seem deeply uncomfortable with images or stories of Jews defending themselves. This has been uniformly true since 1967. Americans have certainly grown apathetic enough not to discomfort themselves to wrest themselves from viewing NASCAR or American Idol to complain to their local TV stations, newspapers or the Whitehouse and State Department to demand public "attaboys" for Israel.
This event should be on NRA posters. Someone with a pistol can stop a massacre.
No, I don't trust the USA to defend Israel. It's too easy for evil Religion of Peace adherents (ok, that was redundant) to strike mortal blows first since US policy is to aggressively leash and shackle Israel at every opportunity. Moreover, every President since Reagan's second term (when James Baker ruled the roost and got greater power under GHW Bush in order to put Baker's dhimmi suck-buddy Shimon Peres in power) has interfered with Israeli elections (Carville) to ensure weak and compromised leaders. If someone offers the 2006 Hezbollah war, I'm convinced that State knew Olmert wasn't up to the task and wanted it to undermine the argument that Israel is a strategic asset to the US.
Someone needs to ask Barack Obama, Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid, Hillary Clinton et al if the murderous bulldozer hijacker should have been arrested and put on trial, instead of shot in the head repeatedly. Should the rodef's killer go on trial? Doesn't the pistol suggest that the Virginia Tech and similar campus massacres would have been LESS deadly if licensed gun owners were armed and nearby?

Yoch, the skeptics will scoff, but I find it very pleasant to sit down and have a good honest talk about literary, theological, philosophical things. We all don't have to agree, just play by the rules. There is something deeply un-theological and anti-human about the Islamist who wants none of that, at least nothing that can be construed as offensive, and wants to "contribute" to the philosophical world by forcibly hacking at everyone involved in the conversation with a scimitar, real or metaphorical.
Picture the scene. Here is a group of gentlemen having a civilized but rigorous conversation, and in barges some ignorant hyena from the desert, waving around his book, his prophet, and his sword, and wanting to Take Charge of the proceedings provided everyone first bow to him and cough up some dough. I completely understand the impulse to just cap him right there. Spares you the misery of having to fend off the glinting sword at every turn in the conversation.
Feh to the whole rubbish lot.
these hyenas charge in w/ their aggressive demands brandishing swords because they can not contribute anything of value to the conversation. they are infected w/ islam.
everywhere they go they do this because they have nothing to offer.
just crude demands. like the british police ad w/ the puppy. they are angry over something so innocent and wonderful. and they expect w/ their brutish outrage that we should bow to their will.
moslems are a drag on the world. and i do think many people are tiring of their hostile ugliness. you are right they bring nothing to the party but belligerence and a sharp blade.

I am increasingly convinced that liberals today are a revival of the medieval Flagellants--but, unlike them, our modern-day flagellants are not content to mortify themselves to achieve the Kingdom of Heaven. Their Kingdom of Heaven is to inflict mortification on everyone around them.
The view the world through a glass darkly. But the dark is on the inside, not the outside. But all their opinions, thoughts are based on the dark.

Thank goodness someone had the presence of mind to defend innocent civilians by taking out the driver and his passengers/friends/companions/whatever. What on earth would be said if all had just watched this happen in some other country? Or, have I missed something and the citizens of Israel are by definition just enemy soldiers and therefore exempt from the so-called laws of war?
Maybe if a view more akin to Israel's position were to prevail, rather than that of the Palestinian Pathetics and Their Groupies and, selective and appropriate portions of the ME were turned to glass, the world would have a chance to stabilize and a bit of oil could perhaps be affordable for even the most needy and destitute. It might be possible there would be fewer 3rd world countries starving, desparate and, dependent solely upon the generosity and largess of the rest of the world.

The 2nd Intifada was all the proof anyone about what Palestinians aspire for, war and destruction, if the 1st Intifada and all the terrorism that is now almost forgotten that happened before that were not enough. Yet leftists, most of Europe and the rest of the world for one reason or another continue to sympathize with these brutes. A lot of it is geopolitics and oil and state-run media. The rest of it is just leftist stupidity. I doubt many people anywhere really feel any compassion for the Palestinians in the world, and certainly other Arabs don't (they just like another excuse to rage and rail against the infidel).
So the question is, why does Israel care what the world thinks? The world doesn't give a toss about Palestinians anyway. They just use "Palestinians" as an issue. Issues come and go. Israel should do what it takes to completely and absolutely separate themselves from the Palestinians, and if the Palestinians continue to fire rockets or blow themselves up or bulldoze people, use overwhelming and "disproportionate" force. How can you use disproportionate force against people who want to kill you? No more accepting hudnas and ceasefires, as Olmert has. The Palestinians will not change until the experience total defeat (and maybe not even then, but at least they will be unable to wage war for a good long while).

I saw a special on PBS a couple of weeks ago called "Visions of Israel" It was absolutely beautiful. I recorded it.
I just looked to see if I could find the DVD but could not, however the intro is on youtube.
[Link: www.youtube.com...]
I have never had the desire to travel outside the US and am now seriously considering a trip to Israel.
Yeah, I saw it too. It's a very good depiction of Israel.

Some words of doubt from the Pali view claims it was a 'traffic accident' ... yea right. Hit one or two vehicles is an accident.
Taking out a city block of vehicles, overturning a bus and running over a van is not an accident. A CAT 966 is an above average 3 yard loader and it doesn't do much without an operator. Every function on the machine is 'dead-man' controlled, that is you have to hold the throttle to make it move you have to turn the wheel to make it turn and move the bucket control levers to make them fuction. This was a murderous rampage ... period.
I know, ... lets give them a sovern state.
