Israel National News this (Tuesday) afternoon:
A terrorist stabbed a security guard at the entrance to the city of Maaleh Adumim, east of Jerusalem, Tuesday. The guard suffered moderate to severe wounds. He fired at the terrorist but apprently failed to hit him. The attacker ran away toward the village of Azariyeh. Magen David Adom medics gave the guard initial care and took him to Hadassah Har Hatzofim (Mt Scopus) hospital. Large police and Border Police forces are combing the area.
Times of Israel's account expands on this:
Three men from an Arab village near Ma’ale Adumim are arrested on suspicion of stabbing an Israeli man in his 60s at the entrance to the West Bank city... There were three private security guards at the checkpoint where the incident occurred. According to one of the guards, they noticed the Palestinian man loitering at the junction, looking ill at ease, before he decided to approach. The guards asked him to present an ID, at which point the attacker pulled out a knife and stabbed one of guards, named Avi, in his torso. The victim, in his 60s, was fully conscious when he was brought to the hospital. The other two guards opened fire, but failed to hit the perpetrator, who fled into Azaria, and adjacent village.

Like many sites that advocate for a moderate, Israel-friendly viewpoint, we unfortunately receive abusive, offensive and racist messages on a routine basis. We want it to be clear that we reserve the right to reject them in our absolute discretion. Racist and Israel-hating sites abound on the web. So not being allowed to play in our sandbox can hardly be called a hardship. Anonymous postings or messages where email address of the poster is hidden from us will generally not be accepted.
