Eight people were injured in Tel Aviv by a Palestinian who rammed a stolen taxi into a police roadblock outside a nightclub and then got out of the car and began stabbing people.

The attack took place early Monday morning outside the Tel Aviv nightclub Haoman 17. The 20-year-old attacker, a resident of the West Bank town of Nablus, was subdued and taken into custody by Israeli police.

The man hijacked a taxi at 1:30 a.m. and some 10 minutes later drove it into a Border Police roadblock protecting the nightclub, which was packed with more than 1,000 high school students attending a party, The Jerusalem Post reported.

The attacker then got out of the car and shouted “Allahu Akbar!”—Arabic for “God is great!”—as he assaulted people with a knife.

According to The Jerusalem Post, five of those injured in the attack were members of the Border Police. One of those hurt in the attack was seriously injured, two were moderately injured and the rest were lightly injured, the newspaper reported.

My solution to rockets from Gaza. Line up a hendre or more bulldozers on the west bank. Advise the Palestinians that every time there is a rocket launched into Israel that the Bull Dozers will move forward 50 yards and level everything in sight Until they reach water.

Gee, and I thought Islam was the religion of peace.

When a large group of upwardly mobile people move into a depressed neighborhood, they tend to push the lower income people out. In big cities in the US, they can easily transplant themselves, but in Israel, real estate is hard to find. When the families have lived there for centuries, it is like what the white Europeans did to the Indians.

The Jews created the problem and while they are really good with creating money, they haven’t been so good in creating a solution. Hence, they will always be the target of resentment towards that stole their lands.

Wow Pe, you do know you are antisemitic scum, right?  You do know your attitude will cause more palestinians to die because you will feed into sense of deprivation; rather than force them to ask themselves why given land/resources etc. they have been unable to create a sustainable state.  Pe, you do know you are in Hitlerian depths and will probably burn in hell for your evilness, right?

These “peacemaker” were made as idiots, alike many other J. democrat-idiots.  They voted for Obama, friend of Arafat speech-writer; one of them gave up Gaza in schizophrenic dream to buy peace from judo-fobs.  Now, when Abbas-Karabas, patented looser, advertises his readiness for a third Intifada in the case of ‘67 borders confirmed by UN, they screaming “Peace Now”
Is it any way to explain to a stupid Jew that the best enemy is a dead enemy?
About article above.
How come that one grasshoper damaged number of Policemen, forget about youth?
Should not his family pay dearly?

I have been in 2 wars, was born a jew and have lived with Jews, christians, hindus, buddhists, athiests and moslems. I have been screwed over by christians and jews (some my own flesh and blood), all in the name of money, but never been screwed over by any moslems.

With all the money Jews control, in this world, they could and should buy a territory somewhere in a third world country like China or India. There they would prosper and live in peace.

I see no importance in living in any holy land if it means living in terror or if it means displacing innocent people.

All religion has ever done is enslave people with fear and create wars.

Pe, you are either a Jew hating anti semite, or if as you claim you are a Jew, you have a borderline personality and are in serious need of intensive therapy.  Either way, I suggest you stop writing at the “J"J, and seek psychiatric care immediately.

Whoa Pe, so you know a few big words and a lot of foul ones - spoken like a 14 year old Muslim (or if a Jew a very disturbed one).

Comment by george on 8/29/11 at 10:07 pm

guys, maybe you don’t know so I’ll tell you: jews always lived in eretz israel and especially in jerusalem,hebron and tzfat!

so the claim of the palestinians of stealing is far from the truth!!!

many jews in israel today saved their “british mandate of palestin” (= the real name, never use just “palestine”) ID’s!

No need to allow incitement to push us, there are those in the hate Israel/Jews community that are so empty of everything but hate they will say or do anything in their attempts to harm us.  We have 2 examples here, the terrorist and the false peacemaker. As shown by the moron and former JPost columnist many are in our own community.

Men, my English is not the best, anybody would distinquish my writing from Shekspirian, but definitian of Idiot-Democrat stays for decades.
They are people who voted for Hitler in Germany, Obama in USA, “Peace Now” in Israel.
I wish, Polossi’s friend, Syrian president, made a short trip in Gaza.  This guy is serious.

From all the posts I have read on this and other JJ blogs, it is obvious that modern Jews are war mongers, putting a much higher priority on war and killing than engineering a permanent peace.

The money Israel has spent on defense since 1947 could have bought the state of New Mexico, lock, stock and barrels.

There were always Jews integrated throughout the middle east, living in peace with their Moslem neighbors, before 1945. It was only after the exodist that the population of Israel, especially Palestine, became overrun with upwardly mobile european Jews.

Pe, who are you trying to kid - you are a Muslim Jew - hater who would love to see the middle east Judenfrei.  You and you ilk have almost completed your ethnic cleansing of Christians from the middle east (you’ve been 100% successful in ethnically cleansing the Jews).  Don’t think it’s going to happen in Israel - because your so - call perfect human the little MO is a paranoid killer/paedophile.  Unfortunate you that you believe in that religion.

Comment by george on 8/30/11 at 3:35 pm

Term/Pe, didn’t your mullah ever tell you that Islam is a religion of peace and swearing was bad?  Of course he probably also told you that raping 9 year old girls was a good thing as proven by the actions of little MO and Aisha.  Time to wash your mouth out with soap - for a 12 year old you do have a nasty mouth.
