Jerusalem Arabs attack Jews for taking wrong turn

Jerusalem Arabs attack Jews for taking wrong turn

Three young Israelis and a visiting Australian friend of theirs nearly lost their lives this week after accidentally entering an Arab neighborhood no the outskirts of Jerusalem, where the local residents felt compelled to violently attack the wayward Jews.

The three Israelis explained to Israel’s Ynet news portal that they are from the Tel Aviv area, and don’t know Jerusalem very well. So, after picking up their foreign friend from the Hebrew University campus on Mount Scopus, they made a wrong turn on their way downtown. Instead, they ended up in the village of Issawiya.

After realizing their mistake, one of the Israelis pulled over and asked a young Arab boy how to get to downtown Jerusalem. Instead of helping them, the boy called for a nearby Arab man. The two chuckled at the Israelis and the man made a phone call before telling the motorists to continue straight deeper into Issawiya. It was an ambush.

As the car reached the center of the village, the Israelis said young men started to appear everywhere with iron bars and bricks. They even hastily erected a makeshift roadblock to prevent the Israelis from escaping. The Arabs then proceeded to smash the car repeatedly with their bars and bricks.

“I had never encountered such a situation of helplessness without any preparation, and with friends and a terrified tourist,” said the driver of the car. “Several minutes later we were surrounded, and I realized that I must drive my car into the barrier if I want to get out of here alive.”

The four managed to get out of the center of Issawiya only to find that the local residents had used several taxis to block the road further on. Fortunately, they had failed to close one small gap, which the driver of the Israeli vehicle managed to squeeze through and reach safety.

While they managed to escape with their lives, the three Israelis and the young Australian girl will always be haunted by the evening they accidentally strayed into a Palestinian village.

“It was like entering a nightmare. They had a look of murder in their eyes,” one of them recounted after the ordeal. “Had we stayed there one more minute we wouldn’t be alive anymore. It wasn’t just an attempt to stone us, but an intentional desire to lynch us only several meters way from the university.”

The world likes to paint the local Arabs as living under siege, while the Israelis uncaringly lord over the land. But the reality, even in Jerusalem, is that Arabs can go just about anywhere without risking their lives, while Jews or other non-Arabs are in mortal danger any time they enter Arab areas. There is an exception for foreign media and diplomats, of course, as those are the people the Arabs are trying to convince that they are an oppressed but peaceful society

UN Resolution 5768 is coming and it will condemn the Israelis for getting lost!

Terrible story but not in any way unexpected. Arabs are murderers. They are killers.

The good thing about Arabs is that they kill a hundred of each other for every one ‘Infidel’ they kill.

These guys will kill anybody, they don’t care. Their wives, children, neighbors, friends, anyone, they don’t care.

They are murders and killers. That’s just what they do.

For an Arab, killing someone(anyone) is like, for you and me, its like going to lunch.

This happens all the time. It happened to me. Some Israelis simply deny the reality. Most know what neighborhoods to avoid.

I drove to the Dead Sea with my new wife, baby, brother-in-law, and Arab Jewish mother-in-law. Mother-in-law said “oh, there is no danger.” The highway back to Jerusalem passes by Bethlehem. Upon leaving the shore we were followed by a car of four young Arab men at a distance of about half a car length, driving at sixty miles per hour, until we approached the checkpoint entering the city, about fifteen miles. The Arab car stopped fifty feet from the check point (Cars from the territories, mostly owned by Arab Muslims, have different colored license plates). People are attacked all the time.

The IDF doesn't patrol the territories thanks to the U.S. and Saudi-funded far left, and the U.S. and Muslim-controlled UN. It is to be expected that Soros funded the latest Human Rights Watch group associated with the U.N. and with Bernadine Dohrn as a Vice President. That is a microcosm of what is happening worldwide, and to our government. Our left hates capitalism, reflexively, so they associate with Muslims, who hate anyone not a Muslim. Even if our left is constituted of spoiled brats who spend their lives rebelling against overly permissive parents, they are extremely dangerous. They fund the aimless Arabs in Gaza, the West Bank and in the U.S. and abide the indoctrination which turns them into killers. The left couldn't care less about Mohammad. They are at war with their parents, and capitalism.

Spent a few months working in Israel - drove (wandered) into a few dicey neighborhoods by mistake - VERY uncomfortable feeling - luckily that tank of a rental Volvo could traverse just about any terrain fairly quickly.

Because it was a misunderstanding. They where giving them directions and the Jews started getting bossy, so they kicked their @ss. Hillary would buy it, I doubt any American would?

South Africans used to arm up and intentionally wander into bad neighborhoods. When the natives got restless, out came the guns and it was self-defense time. Eventually, the natives never knew if it was a trap or not.

Effing Muslims.

The planet is overdue for a good, thorough cleansing of the cultural herpes known as Islam.

What’s with these idiot Israelis?
Blast the neighborhood.
Arrest everybody in sight.
Kick ‘em ALL across the nearest border.

THEN REPEAT AS NECESSARY! (Hell, they can’t hate you any more than they do already.)

They probably are thinking, “Ah, Jerusalem is just like Philadelphia. You don’t want to take a wrong turn in that city, either! Nor in Detroit, L.A., or any other segregated U.S. city.”

I am not surprised. We were in Jerusalem in 1999. We took the bus into east Jerusalem, which is Arab, to visit Lazarus’s tomb, and were going to walk up and over the Mount of Olives, back into Jerusalem proper. It was not a pleasant walk, with little kids throwing stones, not really serious but threatening nonetheless.

The Arab neighborhoods in Jerusalem, and Nazareth and Bethlehem — reminded me of the places here in Los Angeles where you would just NEVER go. They are inhabited by thugs and outsiders are considered prey for the picking.
