It's a delightful spring Tuesday here in Jerusalem. But there is Arab-on-Israeli violence in the air yet again.
Late this afternoon on Baron Hirsch Street in Petach Tikvah, an Arab terrorist male launched a knifing attack on a Jewish male, evidently a Haredi man aged around 35-40. According to an Israel National News report, the Jewish man fought back, wrestled the knife from the attacker's hand and stabbed him to death. The stabbing victim was rushed to nearby Beilinson Medical Center in moderate condition with multiple stabbing wounds to the upper body.
The attacker is reported to be an Arab in his 20s, Times of Israel says he "is apparently a Palestinian from the West Bank". But at this stage, details are in short supply.

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.
