Palestinian woman tries to stab troops in West Bank, is shot dead — IDF
Times of Israel ^ | 4/24/24 | Emanuel Fabian

Israeli troops foiled an attempted stabbing attack near the West Bank settlement of Kiryat Arba, the military said Wednesday.

The Israel Defense Forces said a female Palestinian assailant tried to stab troops of the Kfir Brigade’s Shimshon Battalion, who were stationed at an army post at a junction near the settlement.

“The troops engaged and opened fire at the terrorist who held a knife and charged toward the force,” the military said.

The woman was killed, the army said. No troops were hurt in the incident.

The official Palestinian news agency WAFA identified the alleged assailant as Maimouna Abdel Hamid Harahsheh, 20.

Violence in the West Bank, already on the rise before October 7 — when thousands of Hamas-led terrorists stormed southern Israel to kill nearly 1,200 people and abduct over 250 — has escalated throughout the war sparked by the onslaught, with frequent army raids on terror groups, rampages by Jewish settlers in Palestinian villages and deadly Palestinian street attacks.

Earlier this week, soldiers shot dead three Palestinians who attacked them in separate incidents near Hebron and in the Jordan Valley.

Troops also arrested Ahmed Dawabsha, 21, a resident of the West Bank town of Duma, near Ramallah, who is alleged to have been involved in the murder of 14-year-old Benjamin Achimeir, who was found dead on April 13, a day after setting out from an illegal West Bank outpost to herd sheep.

Since October 7, troops have arrested some 3,850 wanted Palestinians across the West Bank, including more than 1,650 affiliated with Hamas. According to the Palestinian Authority’s health ministry, more than 480 West Bank Palestinians have been killed in that time.

She’s lucky the Israelis killed her. Her corpse wasn’t abused, ripped apart, desecrated and then dragged all over town as it would have been if the Hammies had killed her.

Why?

I took him to take-your-kid-to-work day. It’s not funny! My wife is still pissed at me. She came to the market and said, “Where’s our son?” And I go, “Over there, over there and up there.” Kids nowadays, they blow up so fast.

Maybe some Columbia or Yale students can go over there and try the same. Work-study sort of thing.

Maybe the Ohio National Guard can give them some tips.

Life could be SO EASY for the Palestinians, if they only would WANT that to be so. I remember learning a bit about them when Iraq invaded Kuwait in 1990 - they (the Palestinians in Kuwait) took Iraq’s side and were later kicked out of Kuwait. Winds up that LOTS of Palestinians were working in Kuwait, and they were NOT all day-laborers, but rather had many, perhaps most, of the SKILLED positions in that country (engineers, doctors, etc.). Seems the Kuwaiti’s wealth made them lazy, and so they imported skilled workers.

But it says a lot about the Palestinians - if they want to live prosperous and peacefully, THEY CAN DO THAT, but not as long as they’re hell-bent on ridding the Middle East of ‘The Jew’.

There is no better place for an Arab to live than in Israel.
