Palestinian Arabs Murder Father and Mother in front of their 4 children Here it happened again... I am too emotional to write an opening paragraph... 4 kids find themselves orphans to day... read on. http://unitedwithisrael.org/jewish-...ning+Scream+at+UN&utm_term=more_btn_light_png Four young Jewish children became orphans when their parents were killed after their car came under heavy gunfire from Palestinian terrorists near the Jewish community of Itamar in Samaria. Two Israeli civilians, identified as Rabbi Eitam and Naama Henkin from Neria, have been killed in a terror attack which occurred shortly after 9 pm near the Itamar and Elon Moreh communities in Samaria on Thursday night. The Jewish family of six was driving near the Palestinian village of Beit Furik when their vehicle came under heavy gunfire from a moving Palestinian vehicle, killing the parents. The four children in the car, who witnessed their parents shooting, have been safely rescued. The children, ages 4, 7, and 9 and a four-month-old baby were not injured in the attack. IDF spokesperson has confirmed the tragic event and stated that IDF forces are currently searching the area for the terrorists. Israeli Minister, Uri Ariel had stated in response to the event that this murderous occurrence which orphaned four little children is the direct result of Abu Mazens litany of lies last night at the United Nations. The responsibility is his and he must answer for it. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu made the following remarks in response to the terrorist attack in Samaria: This is a difficult day for the State of Israel. We are witness to an especially heinous and shocking murder in which parents were murdered, leaving four young orphans. My heart is with the children, all of our hearts are with the children and the family. The killers knew that they were murdering a mother and father, the children were there. It has been proven again that wild Palestinian incitement leads to acts of terrorism and murder such as we have seen this evening. I am about to speak with the Defense Minister, the IDF Chief-of-Staff and the Director of the ISA about the steps we will take not only to apprehend the murderers, but also to increase security for all Israeli citizens. Israeli President Reuven Rivlin said in a statement, Tonight, bloodthirsty murderers claimed the lives of a mother and a father, leaving their young children orphaned. The heart breaks at the magnitude of such cruelty and hatred. We will continue in our brave and unwavering fight against this cruel and heinous terrorism of this our enemies can be sure. This is our duty, and the only way we can ensure the right of the orphans who lost their parents tonight, along with the right of all our children and grandchildren, to live with security and in peace, everywhere in the Land of Israel. We pray for the speedy recovery of the injured children our hearts and thoughts are with them. By: Tazpit News Agency
PMW Bulletin Oct. 2, 2015 Fatah claims responsibility for murder of young Israeli couple in front of their children Abbas at UN opened with PA libel that Israel is planning to destroy Muslim and Christian sites PA libel spreading to rest of Islamic world Abbas: Israel has "plans to undermine the Islamic and Christian sanctuaries in Jerusalem, particularly its actions at the Al-Aqsa Mosque" http://palwatch.org/main.aspx?fi=157&doc_id=15782 ~by Itamar Marcus and Nan Jacques Zilberdik p:+972 2 625 4140 e: pmw@palwatch.org f: +972 2 624 2803 w: www.palwatch.org A senior official of Mahmoud Abbas' Fatah movement posted on his Facebook Page that Fatah was accepting responsibility for yesterday's murder of a young Israeli couple, Eitam and Naama Henkin, in front of their four children. Fatah Central Committee member Mahmoud Al-Aloul posted: "The Al-Aqsa Martyrs' Brigades, the military wing of the Palestinian National Liberation Movement Fatah, accepted responsibility for the Itamar operation (i.e., murder of Eitam and Naama Henkin), carried out against settlers, leading to their deaths." [Official Facebook page of Fatah Central Committee member Mahmoud Al-Aloul, Oct. 1, 2015] For screenshot - http://bit.ly/1L8yPf1 Palestinian Media Watch has documented that the Palestinian Authority has led a vicious incitement campaign against Israel calling for violence in recent weeks. Palestinians are fed a steady diet of statements by senior PA and Fatah leaders, claiming that the Al-Aqsa Mosque is "in danger," and that Palestinians must defend it through Ribat, a religious war to liberate or defend what is claimed to be Islamic land. PA Chairman Abbas chose to open his speech Wednesday at the UN with this PA libel. Specifically, he stated that Israel is scheming to destroy the Al-Aqsa Mosque. Abbas called "on the Israeli government, before it is too late, to cease its use of brutal force to impose its plans to undermine the Islamic and Christian sanctuaries in Jerusalem." Abbas threatened that unless Israel stops its "scheme" and its "actions at the Al-Aqsa Mosque," the conflict will change from political to religious, "creating an explosive situation in Jerusalem and the rest of the occupied Palestinian territory." [Abbas at the UN, the UN's website, Sept. 30, 2015] (See excerpt below) israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu said today that Palestinian incitement surrounding the Temple Mount directly led to the murder of the young Israeli parents. The PA libel is now spreading around the Muslim world, which could potentially lead to international terror against Jews, as has been witnessed in the past. The PA media has reported on statements like the following by the Grand Muftis of Saudi Arabia and Lebanon and others, thereby lending more "credibility" to the false accusations that Israel is destroying the Muslim holy site. The official PA daily reported on comments by the Imam and preacher at the holy sanctuary of Mecca, Saudi Arabia, Sheikh Saleh Bin Hamid, who "stated that 'the attacks of the Zionists on the Al-Aqsa Mosque constitute a declaration of war on its Islamic identity'." He "condemned the criminal attacks, the barbaric actions and racist policy being implemented against it." [Al-Hayat Al-Jadida, Sept. 19, 2015] The Grand Mufti of Saudi Arabia Abdul-Aziz ibn Abdullah Al ash-Sheikh stated that "the Al-Aqsa Mosque is complaining to Allah today, and then to the Islamic nation, that the Jews defile it and drive away [Muslim] worshippers, hurt them and place obstacles in their way." He added: "Oh servants of Allah, be alert." [Al-Quds, Sept. 24, 2015] Similarly, the Grand Mufti of Lebanon Abd Al-Latif Daryan said that "they" - Israelis/Jews - "want to destroy the Al-Aqsa [Mosque] or to divide it, saying that they want Palestine to be a homeland and a state for Jews only, and that they want to destroy the Al-Aqsa [Mosque] in order to search for the alleged Temple!" [WAFA (the official Palestinian news agency), Sept. 24, 2015] Abbas made similar comments at a recent visit to Moscow when he "called on the international community to provide protection to the holy places of Christianity and Islam in Jerusalem and ensure the freedom of religion." [WAFA (the official Palestinian news agency), Sept. 23, 2015] Likewise, PA Prime Minister Rami Hamdallah has stated that Israel is trying to "to erase [Jerusalem's] Arab and Islamic identity" and "salute[d] the legendary resoluteness of the sons and daughters of occupied Jerusalem, who are still dealing with the Judaization attack." [Al-Hayat Al-Jadida, Sept. 17, 2015] The PA prime minister also has stated that Palestinians "will not concede one speck of land in Jerusalem, and Israel's plan to divide Al-Aqsa will not pass, and Israel does not scare our people with its racist resolutions." [Al-Quds, Sept. 20, 2015] The demonic image of "Jews defiling the holy places" has been reiterated extensively by PA leaders lately. PLO Executive Committee member Hanan Ashrawi stated that "Israel is playing with fire with its desecration of the holy places." [Al-Hayat Al-Jadida, Sept. 15, 2015] A reporter from official PA TV spoke of Israel's "defilement, Judaization, and invasion" of the mosque, [Official PA TV, Sept. 13, 2015] while the Ambassador of the State of "Palestine" to Kazakhstan Muntasir Abu Zaid updated a Kazakh official "about the desecration of the Islamic and Christian holy places in East Jerusalem by the occupation, and about the fact that the extremist settlers are being allowed to invade the Al-Aqsa plaza and defile it." [WAFA (the official Palestinian news agency), Sept. 20, 2015] PMW reported on Abbas' statement that Palestinians will not allow "Jews with their filthy feet" to enter the Al-Aqsa Mosque plaza. Those Palestinians who try to prevent Jews from praying at the Temple Mount are praised by Palestinian leaders, referred to as fighters of a holy war - Murabitin - those who carry out Ribat - i.e., religious conflict/war over land claimed to be Islamic. Fatah spokesperson Osama Al-Qawasmi called them "heroes": "Those carrying out Ribat at the Al-Aqsa Mosque are heroes, and a source of pride for all Palestinians... they protect the honor of the Arab and Islamic nations with their bare chests and with the words 'Allah is great,' ... the Palestinian people will not relinquish its land and holy sites, no matter what price it will have to pay." [WAFA (the official Palestinian news agency), Sept. 20, 2015] Al-Qawasmi also vowed that Fatah "will protect our Al-Aqsa at any cost" and "never relinquish our land, our Jerusalem, and our Al-Aqsa." He stated that "the Fatah movement will protect the holy places of Islam and Christianity in East Jerusalem, especially the Al-Aqsa Mosque and its plaza." Al-Qawasmi also threatened that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu "must know that when he approaches [the subject of] Jerusalem and the holy places, he sets the entire area on fire and ignites religious conflicts that will have impact on the entire world." [Al-Hayat Al-Jadida, Sept. 18, 2015] PA Parliament Member Mustafa Barghouti emphasized that continued Palestinian "defense" of the Al-Aqsa Mosque and Jerusalem at any price "until liberation": "We will protect the Al-Aqsa Mosque and Jerusalem, whatever the price may be, and Israel will fail to turn it into a religious conflict," he said, and stressed that "the Palestinian people... will continue to defend the 'Arabness' of the Al-Aqsa Mosque and Jerusalem until they are liberated." [Wattan News Agency, Sept. 18, 2015] In a rally in support of Palestinian prisoners and the Al-Aqsa Mosque, "senior officials, leaders of factions and activists" were reported to "urge" Palestinians "to start an intifada against the occupation, its aggression and its policy by taking to the streets... to release the prisoners and protect Jerusalem and the holy places from the occupation's aggression and its settlers." [Al-Hayat Al-Jadida, Sept. 23, 2015] Palestinians are called upon by these same leaders to "protect" and "defend" the mosque and carry out Ribat and encouraged to continue to throw rocks at Israelis and sacrifice themselves for Al-Aqsa. Click to view more examples of the Al-Aqsa libel and denial of Jewish history in Jerusalem. The following is the opening of Abbas' speech at the UN, repeating the libel that Israel is planning to harm the Al-Aqsa Mosque: PA Chairman Abbas: "I come before you today from Palestine, compelled to sound the alarm about the grave dangers of what is happening in Jerusalem, where extremist Israeli groups are committing repeated, systematic incursions upon Al-Aqsa Mosque, aimed at imposing a new reality and dividing Al-Haram Al-Sharif temporally, allowing extremists, under the protection of Israeli occupying forces and accompanying ministers and Knesset members, to enter the Mosque at certain times, while preventing Muslim worshipers from accessing and entering the Mosque at those times and freely exercising their religious rights. This is the scheme that the Israeli government is pursuing, in direct violation of the status quo since before 1967 and thereafter. By doing so, the occupying power is committing a grave mistake, because we will not accept this, and the Palestinian people will not allow the implementation of this illegal scheme, which is aggravating the sensitivities of Palestinians and Muslims everywhere. I call on the Israeli government, before it is too late, to cease its use of brutal force to impose its plans to undermine the Islamic and Christian sanctuaries in Jerusalem, particularly its actions at Al-Aqsa Mosque, for such actions will convert the conflict from a political to religious one, creating an explosive in Jerusalem and in the rest of the occupied Palestinian territory." [Abbas at the UN, the UN's website, Sept. 30, 2015] The following are longer excerpts of the reports mentioned above: Headline: "The president [Abbas] called to provide protection to the holy places of Islam and Christianity in Jerusalem at the inauguration of the Moscow Cathedral Mosque" "President of the State of Palestine Mahmoud Abbas called on the international community to provide protection to the holy places of Christianity and Islam in Jerusalem and ensure the freedom of religion, as it existed before the Israeli occupation of Jerusalem in 1967, especially at the Al-Aqsa Mosque. His honor stated during his speech today, Wednesday, [Sept. 23, 2015], at the inauguration of the Moscow Cathedral Mosque in the presence of President of Russia Vladimir Putin and President of Turkey Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, together with Arab and Islamic delegations and international personalities: 'The systematic aggression against the blessed Al-Aqsa Mosque, the first direction of prayer and the third holiest [Islamic] sanctuary, in occupied East Jerusalem, the capital of the State of Palestine, cannot serve peace, coexistence and tolerance between the religions and nations. It provides an additional excuse for extremists around the world who use religions in their terror and their aggression against humanity.' His honor emphasized that the Al-Aqsa Mosque belongs to Muslims only, and it is the right of every Muslim in the world to visit it and hold religious ceremonies in its plaza. In addition, he expressed his strong opposition to any measure taken by the occupation, aimed at limiting Muslims' access to it and preventing them from holding their ceremonies freely inside it." [WAFA (the official Palestinian news agency), Sept. 23, 2015] Headline: "Palestinian and Arab condemnations of the occupation's actions in Jerusalem and at the Al-Aqsa Mosque" "PLO Executive Committee member Hanan Ashrawi stated: 'Israel is playing with fire with its desecration of the holy places. Its invasions of the Al-Aqsa Mosque plaza and the coercion of its division according to times and areas through its [Israel's] military establishments and branches, are all part of the completion of its Judaization scheme to annex the Al-Aqsa Mosque and its surroundings, and to impose facts on the ground by gradually imposing its security control over them and implementing its vision concerning what it calls the third Temple." [Al-Hayat Al-Jadida, Sept. 15, 2015] Headline: "Al-Qawasmi: 'Those carrying out Ribat at the Al-Aqsa [Mosque] are heroes, and the settlers are terrorists'" "Fatah Spokesperson Osama Al-Qawasmi said that those carrying out Ribat (i.e., religious conflict/war over land claimed to be Islamic) at the Al-Aqsa Mosque are heroes, and a source of pride for all Palestinians, and that they protect the honor of the Arab and Islamic nations with their bare chests and with the words 'Allah is great,' with their iron will, and with the fact that they trust first and foremost in Allah, and their absolute faith in our full right to our Jerusalem and the blessed [Al-Aqsa] Mosque. Al-Qawasmi emphasized in a statement to the press tonight [Sept. 20, 2015] that the true terrorists are the herds of settlers and [Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin] Netanyahu's extreme government which protects them and eases the way for their acts of invasion of the Al-Aqsa Mosque, as preparation for its division by areas and times. Likewise, he emphasized that the Palestinian people will not relinquish its land and holy sites, no matter what price it will have to pay." [WAFA (the official Palestinian news agency), Sept. 20, 2015] The PA considers any presence of Jews on the Temple Mount an "invasion." "Division according to areas and times" refers to a proposed law (May 2013) being reviewed in Israeli Parliament that would allow for both Jews and Muslims to pray on the Temple Mount. The law seeks to designate separate prayer times and areas of the site for Muslims and Jews.

Fatah has not claimed respoonsibility for the attack. and honestly, they weren't just Israelis.' they were Israeli settlers, living in an illegal settlement in the West Bank, that was likely built on stolen Arab land. they are not completely guilt free in all this.
While fatah hasn't claimed responsibility for attack, Al Aqsa Martyr Brigade did. Martyr Brigade was a terrorist group formed during second intifada that became armed wing of Fatah. In other words an armed wing of Fatah claimed responsibly(this was after Fatah and Tanzim the other armed wing of Fatah after second of intifada stopped their attacks). However, there is some doubt that Martry Brigade did it given how they haven't done a brutal attack like this since second intifada, this could be lone gunmen revenge attack for Duma house burning(attack was between settlements of Itamar and Elon More near Nablus which Duma is also near Nablus) and Martyr Brigade wanting to increase credibility among Palestinian street. If Martyr Brigade did do it then similar to last year's kidnapping of 3 settler teenagers when it was done by a Hamas cell acting independently of Hamas central leadership, Martyr Brigade acting independently in order to increase credibility among Palestinian street. Regardless since Martyr Brigade did claim responsibility Bibi should probably use administrative detection against leaders of Marty Brigade to prevent this from escalating more. It should also be noted location of this attack was between settlements of Itamar and Elon More. Itamar is one of the most extreme settlements along with Kiryat Arba and Yitzhar. Chief rabbi for Itamar Yeshiva Avihai rontzki was chief rabbi for Israeli military from 2006-2010 and while he was chief rabbi a "leaflet informed soldiers that cruelty is sometimes a "good attribute" and that all Palestinians were their enemy. Another asked: "Is it possible to compare today's Palestinians to the Philistines of the past? And if so, is it possible to apply lessons today from the military tactics of Samson and David?" It concluded: "A comparison is possible because the Philistines of the past were not natives and had invaded from a foreign land ... They invaded the Land of Israel, a land that did not belong to them and claimed political ownership over our country ... Today the problem is the same." http://imeu.org/article/state-sanctioned-incitement-israels-extremist-rabbis In a report called "When settlers attack" by the Jerusalem Fund it noted Yitzhar, Bracha, Alon Moreh, Itamar settlements were the settlements in Nablus region that attacked Palestinians the most. http://www.thejerusalemfund.org/ht/a/GetDocumentAction/i/32678 The response of Israeli settlers to this attack was also to torch a Palestinian car. Stones were also thrown at house of a Palestinian and at a Palestinian car on route 60(I don't see Israel authorizing live fire against them) http://www.ynetnews.com/articles/0,7340,L-4706354,00.html
I will let Brigitte Gabriel retort to your post. VIDEO Brigitte Gabriel supports Israel as the vanguard against Islamism https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2fnTHyyvzWg
"The Israel Defense Forces and Shin Bet security service said they carried out a joint operation in and around Nablus late Friday and early Saturday, arresting suspects in the killing of Eitam and Naama Henkin, who were gunned down while traveling with their four children Thursday night." http://www.timesofisrael.com/army-reports-significant-progress-in-hunt-for-henkin-killers/ The IDF managed to arrest 8 people after two days. Meanwhile no arrests have been made in the murders of 18 month old Ali Dawabsheh, his father, Saad, and mother, Reham, and the severe burning of his four-year old brother, Ali, whose home was firebombed 35 days ago. It speaks volumes.
Simply because there is no proof the Jews did it. Sorry to disappoint you! If you have any proof please display it so we can carry with this conversation.
We aren't talking about Lebanon or Arafat. You also completely ignored facts I cited like chief rabbi for Itamar's yeshiva saying all Palestinians regardless of whether they are a terrorist, women or child with Itamar along with Nablus being cited as among settlements most known for for attacking Palestinians in the Nablus region. http://imeu.org/article/state-sanctioned-incitement-israels-extremist-rabbis http://www.thejerusalemfund.org/ht/a/GetDocumentAction/i/32678 Human rights abuse under Islam and Israel's human rights violations in West Bank which no other Western democratic country does are separate issues with Islam not being a barrier to peace with Israel,; both Egypt and Jordan signed peace agreements with Israel and all 57(some of them like Persian Gulf states like Saudi Arabia already have unofficial relations with Israel) nations of Islamic cooperation supporting Arab peace initiative which would normalize relations between Israel and these countries in return for withdrawal(with Palestinian formed afterwards) to 67 lines adjusted through land swaps. It should noted also Israel right now is defacto two states, one is the state of Israel within green lines where there is rule of law and democratic society due to everyone under civil law, this state is one most people support, it's the one that helps against extremism due to being a progressive democratic society. The second state as noted by former Shin Bet head Yuval Diskin de facto State of Judea is being formed in the West Bank, he argued, where law enforcement is shockingly weak toward Jews and anarchistic, anti-state, violent, and racist ideologies are forming and they are treated tolerantly by the Israeli legal and judicial system. He contended that in the West Bank there are many hundreds of youths supporting messianic and/or anarchistic, anti-state ideologies, including dozens who daily adopt different levels of violence or terrorism against Palestinian lives and property and dozens who would be willing to unhesitatingly take part in violence and terrorism against their Jewish brothers when they see the value of sacred land as being put to the test. This society doesn't go with being a Western democratic society. This de facto state helps Islamist extremists as this is often cited by extremists as one of the reasons to fight the West. Ending this "anarchist, anti state" society where individuals often "daily adopt different levels of violence or terrorism against Palestinian lives and property" would remove one of the grievances Islamist use against it. http://www.jta.org/2015/08/07/news-...ist-ideology-growing-among-religious-zionists A much more important reason is also that Israel can't be a Jewish and democratic state at the same time which is what it was founded for. This is according to former Shin Bet heads like Ami Ayalon, former prime ministers like Ehud Barak, Yitzhak Rabin, and Ariel Sharon.
Below is some testimony from residents describing perpetrators fleeing "According to witnesses, at roughly 4 A.M. Friday morning, two masked men arrived at two homes in the village of Douma, not far from the settlement of Migdalim.

Today the problem is the same." imeu.org/article/state-sanctioned-incitement-israels-extremist-rabbis With religious leaders for both Itamar and Yitzhar as noted above condoned killing non Jews including children it's not a shock that this atrocity was done by Jewish extremist settlers. This also isn't a first time Jewish settlers have firebombed Arab houses with "B’Tselem, the Israeli human rights group which monitors settler activity, said that in the past three years, nine Palestinian homes in the West Bank had been set alight, and a Palestinian family had been severely burned when a Molotov cocktail was thrown at a Palestinian taxi. “In recent years, Israeli civilians set fire to dozens of Palestinian homes, mosques, businesses, agricultural land and vehicles in the West Bank. The vast majority of the these cases were never solved, and in many of them the Israeli police did not even bother to take elementary investigative actions,” B’Tselem said in a statement." http://www.theguardian.com/world/2015/jul/31/israel-talk-is-cheap-price-tag-violence For period covering 2004-2011 reported called when settlers attack by the Jerusalem fund noted "Vehicular attack-This is the use of vehicles to attack Palestinian civilians or their livestock. Often the most vulnerable members of society fall victim to these types of attacks including children and the elderly. Shepherds and Bedouin who are often grazing their livestock in fields adjacent to roads have fallen prey to these types of attacks as well. These incidents are most prevalent in the Hebron governorate but also increasingly a problem in the northern governorates of Nablus, Qalqilya and Salfit along an Israeli settler road corridor. Vehicular attacks have claimed the lives of ten Palestinian civilians over the period covered by our data and left 208 more injured. "Shootings-This is self-explanatory. Settlers are largely armed and haveused firearms against Palestinian civilians. Geographically, this attack type isdistributed throughout the West Bank with the largest number of incidents occurring in Hebron (24 percent) and Nablus (32 percent).

Good news readers... IDF News Desk Announcement Terrorist who shot and killed Naama and Eitam Henkin, Arrested Date: 05/10/2015 Location: Tel Aviv Oct 05, 2015 A joint effort of the IDF along with ISA and Israeli Police arrested the murderers who shot and killed Naama and Eitam Henkin while driving with their four children on October 1st 2015. The night of the attack, two of the terrorists drove the road between Itamar and Alon Moreh in order to stake out the area and choose the exact location of the attack. Immediately prior to the attack the four operatives drove to the chosen location for the attack, at which point one of the operatives began to stake out the area. When the area was determined fit for the planned attack, the operatives advanced on the road, identified the Henkin's family and fired at the vehicle. The terrorists then stopped, exited their vehicle, approached the family and opened fire again at the parents- Naama and Eitam Henkin from close range. Once the terrorists carried out the deadly attack, they fled the scene, running off to Nablus. Lt. Col. Peter Lerner, IDF Spokesman: "We are seeing a rise in the motivation for terror in Judea and Samaria. Hamas among other terror organizations are fueling instability across the entire region. Terrorism cannot go unanswered, cannot become an acceptable routine. We owe it to our people to continue taking all necessary measures to keep them safe." Below please find a press release from the ISA, including details from the investigation. ISA: Following an intelligence and operational effort to locate those involved in the October 1 shooting attack at an Israeli vehicle near Itamar in which Rabbi Eitam Henkin and his wife Naama were murdered while traveling with their four young children, the ISA, IDF and Israel Police have arrested members of the cell that perpetrated the attack. The detainees have been transferred for investigation by the ISA and have admitted their involvement in the murder of the Henkins. The cell – affiliated with Hamas in Nablus – numbered five terrorists, each of which had a defined role. One terrorist checked the route. Three terrorists were in the attacking vehicle – a driver and two attackers. The cell commander was not in the vehicle. Several additional suspects have been arrested on suspicion of aiding the cell. The cell commander was Raeb Ahmed Muhammad Alivi, born in 1978, and active in Hamas's military wing. He recruited the members of the cell, instructed them and provided them with weapons Members of the cell included: Yehye Muhammad Naif Abdallah Haj Hamed, born in 1991, a resident of Nablus. A Hamas member, he carried out the shooting in this attack and has been active in others. Samir Zahir Ibrahim Kusa, born in 1982, a resident of Nablus. A Hamas member, he drove the attacking vehicle. Kerem Lutfy Fathi Razek, born in 1992, a resident of Nablus. A Hamas member, he set out on the attack armed with a pistol but was mistakenly wounded by his colleague during the carrying out of the attack. Zid Ziad Jamil Amar, born in 1989, a resident of Nablus. A Hamas member, he checked the route. Cell members said that on the evening of the attack, two of them traveled on the route and selected the point from which they would open fire. Afterwards they collected the other members, one of which checked the route. Upon hearing that the route was clear, the cell set out, identified the Henkins' vehicle and opened fire. After the Henkins' vehicle stopped, two cell members left their vehicle and fired again from very close range. During the shooting, one of the cell members was accidentally shot by one of his colleagues and dropped his pistol, which was left at the scene and found by Israeli forces. After carrying out the shooing, the terrorists fled toward Nablus. The cell members also said that they had been involved in two shooting attacks in recent weeks, neither of which resulted in casualties, including the 30 August attack near the entrance to Kedumim. The investigation of the cell members is continuing. ________________________________________ IMRA - Independent Media Review and Analysis
Statement by PM Netanyahu (Communicated by the Prime Minister's Media Adviser) Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, this evening (Monday, 5 October 2015), made the following statement: "I would like to commend the ISA personnel who solved the terrible murder of the Henkins near Nablus. They acted very quickly and also apprehended the murderers. We are acting with a strong hand against terrorism and against inciters. We are operating on all fronts. We have brought an additional four IDF battalions into Judea and Samaria, and thousands of police into Jerusalem. The police are going deeply into the Arab neighborhoods, which has not been done in the past. We will demolish terrorists' homes. We are allowing our forces to take strong action against those who throw rocks and firebombs. This is necessary in order to safeguard the security of Israeli citizens on the roads and everywhere. We are not prepared to give immunity to any rioter, inciter or terrorist anywhere; therefore, there are no restrictions on the action of our security forces. We will also lift restrictions regarding action against inciters. We will act against the Islamic Movement which, together with Hamas and the Palestinian Authority, is the main source of incitement. I would like to thank the personnel of the IDF, Border Police, Israel Police and the ISA who have been working around the clock for our security; they are doing excellent work. They have full backing from me and from the government. We are in a difficult struggle but one thing should be clear – we will win. Just as we defeated previous waves of terrorism, we will defeat this one as well." ________________________________________ IMRA - Independent Media Review and Analysis
Injured Hamas Terrorist Hiding in Hospital Snatched by Israeli Forces Here is the drama of a wounded Hamas terrorist who was captured by Israeli Security Forces as he recovered from injuries sustained by his <partners in murder> during a recent terror attack. http://unitedwithisrael.org/watch-h...Nabbed-by-Israeli-Security-Forces-249x169_jpg
Can we expect any news of arrests in the murders of 18 month old Ali Dawabsheh, his father, Saad, and mother, Reham, and the severe burning of his four-year old brother, Ali, whose home was firebombed 38 days ago, I wonder.
There is no proof of Israelis sneaking in the center of Duma. So there will not be any arrest... Ali Dawabsheh was in a <Clan Clash> before the case was brought in the front page. Check all your posts... none are regular for they ALL drip of animus against the Jews!
Evidence has been provided you chose to ignore it. "According to witnesses, at roughly 4 A.M. Friday morning, two masked men arrived at two homes in the village of Douma, not far from the settlement of Migdalim. They sprayed painted graffiti reading "revenge" and "long live the Messiah" in Hebrew, breaking the windows of the homes and throwing two firebombs inside "Local resident Mesalem Daoubasah, 23, said he saw four settlers fleeing the scene, with several local residents following in pursuit. According to Daoubasah, the settlers fled toward the settlement of Ma'aleh Ephraim." Daoubasah added that other witnesses saw the settlers smash the windows of the house before throwing firebombs inside." http://www.haaretz.com/news/israel/1.668871 The Israeli army investigating the case also noted "A senior Israeli army officer said there is no doubt that Jews firebombed a West Bank Palestinian home that left an 18-month baby and his parents dead. “We know unequivocally that this is an act of Jewish terror,” the officer told reporters Tuesday in a briefing, the Israeli media reported. “All the rumor and speculation being spread on this issue lack any basis in reality. http://www.jta.org/2015/09/08/news-...r-duma-attack-was-definitely-jewish-terrorism This also isn't the first time settlers have firebombed houses. As noted before "That in the past three years, nine Palestinian homes in the West Bank had been set alight, and a Palestinian family had been severely burned when a Molotov cocktail was thrown at a Palestinian taxi. “In recent years, Israeli civilians set fire to dozens of Palestinian homes, mosques, businesses, agricultural land and vehicles in the West Bank. The vast majority of the these cases were never solved, and in many of them the Israeli police did not even bother to take elementary investigative actions,” B’Tselem said in a statement." http://www.theguardian.com/world/2015/jul/31/israel-talk-is-cheap-price-tag-violence This also isn't the first settlers have killed Palestinians as noted before from 2004-2011 24 Palestinians were killed and 303 injured by settlers. "Vehicular attack-This is the use of vehicles to attack Palestinian civilians or their livestock. Often the most vulnerable members of society fall victim to these types of attacks including children and the elderly. Shepherds and Bedouin who are often grazing their livestock in fields adjacent to roads have fallen prey to these types of attacks as well. These incidents are most prevalent in the Hebron governorate but also increasingly a problem in the northern governorates of Nablus, Qalqilya and Salfit along an Israeli settler road corridor. Vehicular attacks have claimed the lives of ten Palestinian civilians over the period covered by our data and left 208 more injured. "Shootings-This is self-explanatory.

Both Yitzhar and Itamar settlements are near Nablus and are known for being extreme with both settlements as mentioned before in Jerusalem fund report as most common attacking settlements in Nablus region. Chief rabbi for Itamar's yeshiva was former chief rabbi for Israeli miltiary from 2006-210 as noted before Another leaflet informed soldiers that cruelty is sometimes a "good attribute" and that all Palestinians were their enemy. Another asked: "Is it possible to compare today's Palestinians to the Philistines of the past? And if so, is it possible to apply lessons today from the military tactics(in the bible Israelite committed acts of genocide against Philistines as commanded by God) of Samson and David?" It concluded: "A comparison is possible because the Philistines of the past were not natives and had invaded from a foreign land ... They invaded the Land of Israel, a land that did not belong to them and claimed political ownership over our country ... Today the problem is the same." Chief rabbi for Yitzhar's yeshiva co-authorized King's Torah which calls for non Jews including children to be killed. http://www.thejerusalemfund.org/ht/a/GetDocumentAction/i/32678 http://imeu.org/article/state-sanctioned-incitement-israels-extremist-rabbis Why are you shocked that extremist settlers would have done this when they have killed Palestinians before, firebombed their homes and property before, when religious leaders for settlements in that area say it's okay to kill non Jews including children,?
ALL is fine but where is the <SOLID PROOF?>...You have none!! You have hearsay, how does a settler is recognized as a settler??? Are you a racist? Arabs have IDF uniforms, Arabs can write Hebrew etc... Where is the solid proof?
Hamas video to promote the killing of Jews... watch and realize why the shooting of Arab attackers has become more frequent. http://unitedwithisrael.org/watch-h...ouraging-Murder-of-Jews-in-Israel-209x139_jpg

It's not hearsay, hearsay means from someone that wasn't there, this is according to residents at Duma where the home was firebombed, The residents assumed they were settlers attacking since they have attacked with wearing masks before and were reported by witnesses fleeing towards direction of a settlement. This isn't the first time extremist settlers have killed as noted before between 2004-2011 settlers killed 24 Arabs either through shootings or vehicular attack. As noted before in the past three years nine Arab homes have been set on fire. Your country's army also says this is unequivocally an act of Jewish terrorism. As mentioned before Nablus is region with extremist settlements like Itamar and Yitzhar with their religious leaders saying it's okay to kill non Jews including children. Doesn't it concern you have communities in the West Bank whose religious leaders say this and are known for attacking Arabs(roughly 399 attacks for 2009-2013 each year 93 of them in which Arabs were injured and 306 where property was damaged four times the rate since UNOCHA(UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs) started monitoring this in 2006 with 24 Arabs killed by settlers between 2004-2011), that in cases like Kiryat Arba openly venerate Meir Kahane and Baruch Goldstein communities that would not be tolerated in Israel within green lines? Does it concern you that Dov Lior chief rabbi for Kiryat Arba's yeshiva in a rabbinical ruling said that Baruch Goldstein who massacred 29 Arabs is holier than victims of the holocaust? http://www.ynetnews.com/articles/0,7340,L-4448084,00.html https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=va8ceXouaIo http://www.thejerusalemfund.org/ht/a/GetDocumentAction/i/32678 http://www.theguardian.com/world/2015/jul/31/israel-talk-is-cheap-price-tag-violence http://imeu.org/article/state-sanctioned-incitement-israels-extremist-rabbis http://www.globalresearch.ca/settle...ign-of-terror-on-unarmed-palestinians/5366169
This wasn't Takyiah. Again even your country's army says it was unequivocally an act of Jewish terrorism. You never answered my question about settlements like Itamar, Yitzhar, and Kiryat Arba(by your silence you approve of communities led by people who don't see a problem killing non Jews including children? , by your silence you approve of communities where Meir Kahane and Baruch Goldstein is venerated where Baruch Goldstein someone that massacred 29 Arabs holier than victims of the holoacust?)
