Check point
Every time I venture into a mid-east debate the ‘Israeli checkpoints’ are always brought up as a rhetorical bludgeon to hit me over my head – figuratively speaking that is. It always seems to escape my detractors that the need for the checkpoints was the result of great deal of malice and the Palestinian compulsion to inflict grievous harm upon Jews. This You Tube video illustrations quite graphically the kind of dangers Israelis face from often the most unlikely looking of perqs at the checkpoints.
Apparently, this young woman with knife in her purse and her pants just happens to be a Hamas member.
Update: Sorry folks, the video has been removed from You Tube – if I find it anywhere else I will re-post it. Ynet News has a brief background piece on the stubbing at the checkpoint.
Very chilling video. I know they had to subdue the terrorist, but I don’t understand why the other guards didn’t help the stab victim?
