The “West” is Liberals and Commies who hate themselves so much they prefer to die or be in dhimmitude.

Would you believe in a religion where the only guarantee that you get to heaven is by committing murder? Not only that but you get 72 virgins and can act intercessor between Allah and 70 relatives as a result of your murder(s). No wonder the mothers of “martyrs” want to bring up their kids to be murderers, they probably figure it’s the only way they’ll get into heaven considering they’re nothing but meat-puppets or meat-bots here on earth.

In a perfect world, the US would provide all possible assistance.

In any rational world - in any sane world - in any world NOT controlled by hateful democrats - the US would provide ALL possible assistance.

This is just shocking , It happened on the airport as well.
I have been planning to go there on holiday as well. It is inexpensive and very beautiful place that is swarming with tourists during the summer.

What we need to do is infiltrate the ranks of the suicide bombers, then turn them loose on targets among their peers, making them think they are targeting Jews and Americans.

There are a lot of nice Black Sea resorts in Romania, and Bulgaria.

Israelis go all over the world, especially Europe and Eastern Europe in order to escape the 100+ degree heat in Israel during the summer and the high-priced hotel costs in resort cities like Eilat on the Israeli Red Sea. All places that are cheap, have a lot of natural water falls or lakes, green forests and cheap food will be on the Israeli tourist agenda. Bulgaria was good to the Jews during WWII so there's a special relationship there. In short, it is beautiful, cheap and comfortable, hence they go there. The Muzzies know this too and stalk them (especially the Hizbollah) waiting for the right moment like today...scum.

The Bulgarian Black Sea coast is supposedly very beautiful and very inexpensive. And I wouldn’t be surprised by Israelis also having old family ties to Bulgaria.

You are correct on both counts.

Romania is another secret tourist spot for Westerners.
