And this piece of shit got away....wounded by security guards, but he got away...for now. A Palestinian jihadist attacked an Israeli settlement in the West Bank today killing one young Israeli boy (all of 13 years old) and wounding another boy who is seven years old. Here's some of the details from Breitbart:
This apparently will be just the start of what awaits the new rule of Netanyahu - I think the tests will become steady and persistent. There's going to be a testing of the waters by Hamas, by Fatah, by the Islamic Jihad and al Qaeda in Gaza just to see how the new Israeli leader reacts. My suggestion to those terror groups is don't claim responsibility for this one - I have a feeling you'll regret it.
An ax-wielding Palestinian militant entered a Jewish settlement in the West Bank on Thursday and went on a rampage, killing an Israeli teenager and wounding a young boy before fleeing the area.Now, who exactly WOULD claim responsibility for the killing of a 13 year old and the wounding of a seven year old? But I wouldn't be a bit surprised to see one of the terror groups on Palestine step up and brag about this cowardly attack.
Authorities said a manhunt was under way for the assailant, who was believed to have been wounded by security guards.
Police spokesman Micky Rosenfeld said the militant used the ax and a knife in the attack in Bat Ayin, a settlement south of Jerusalem. "No shots were fired," he said.
Rescuers on the scene told Israel Radio that a 13-year-old boy was killed and a 7-year-old boy was badly wounded. There was no immediate claim of responsibility.

Israeli youth killed in West Bank ax attack
JERUSALEM (AP) - An ax-wielding Palestinian militant entered a Jewish settlement in the West Bank on Thursday and went on a rampage, killing an Israeli teenager and wounding a young boy before fleeing the area.
Authorities said a manhunt was under way for the assailant, who was believed to have been wounded by security guards.
Police spokesman Micky Rosenfeld said the militant used the ax and a knife in the attack in Bat Ayin, a settlement south of Jerusalem. "No shots were fired," he said.
Security guards wounded the attacker before he fled, said Shaul Goldstein, a settler leader. "The security team here managed to shoot and hit the terrorist, but he managed to escape," he told Army Radio.
Police and military units were searching for the attacker, according to Rosenfeld and army officials. Israeli TV showed images of a large group soldiers in combat gear gathered at an intersection, and the army said all roads around the settlement were closed.
Rescuers on the scene told Israel Radio that a 13-year-old boy was killed and a 7-year-old boy was badly wounded. There was no immediate claim of responsibility.
The attack was likely to heighten tensions between the Palestinians and Israel's new hard-line government, which has already voiced skepticism about peace negotiations in its first days in office.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was elected to office on a campaign that criticized his predecessor's peace negotiations with Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas.
Netanyahu has said he will still seek peace, but has given few details about his vision for a final agreement. He has specifically refused to endorse the idea of an independent Palestinian state—a key demand of the Palestinians and the centerpiece of U.S. diplomacy in the region.
On Wednesday, Netanyahu's foreign minister, Avigdor Lieberman, said Israeli concessions to the Palestinians would only bring more war. He also rejected the previous government's peace talks, launched at a U.S.-sponsored conference in 2007.
Netanyahu hasn't commented publicly on Lieberman's statement. But a close Netanyahu ally, Cabinet minister Gilad Erdan, said Thursday that Lieberman's comments reflected the position of the prime minister's Likud Party.
Israel's former chief peace negotiator, Tzipi Livni, said Lieberman's scathing rejection of recent negotiations shows the new government is not a partner for peace with the Palestinians.
"What happened yesterday is that the Israeli government announced that Israel isn't relevant, isn't a partner," Livni told Army Radio.

This pigs bastard must have felt very threatened by these children.Much the same as Abbas did was when he arranged the hi jack of a ship,on which a wheelchair bound 75 yr old was thrown overboard to his death.his name was Leon Klinghoffer and he was a citizen of the USA.Yes thats right the same Abbas who told the Arab press he was proud to have fired the first bullet against the Israelis in the latest and ongoing war.What do you mean follow my leader? He is the partner in the peace process.
This guy should be shot down in the street. Death is almost too good for him.
I feel the same way when I read about IDF forces shooting and killing a ten year old outside a school etc. Did Israeli troops feel threatened by Palestinian children? How many Palestinian children were killed during the latest Gaza battle? Whether a child is mangled as "collateral damage" by an Israeli air raid or hacked by a Palestinan terrorist the result is the same to that childs family. Both will want revenge. Neither this murderer or Israeli soldiers who kill Arab children have any moral high ground left to stand on. One can only hope that they will be chained up side by side in hell.
Anonymous,
Great, great comment. Thank you.
Esquerita,
first off...read Brent's comment to you - that speaks for me. One small point about your supposed "children casualties" of the Cast Lead Operation. A normal people would have gotten their kids out of the line of fire but no, the Palestinians, sometimes under threat from Hamas, sometimes not, give their kids up as shields. You and me would get our kids the hell out of those areas, but no...the Palis use them for photo ops.
Brent,
Great stuff as usual.
By the way Brent, I want to thank you for dropping a link to my site here over at Fox Nation. Much appreciated.

Just where were the people of Gaza supposed to take their kids with the borders and roads closed? Anyway my point is plenty of Palestinian children have been killed by Israel and dead kids are dead kids - evil when anyone does it. If you want to think they fake those photos of dead children and bullet riddled ambulances then you are the one with "Israel can do no wrong" blinders on. As for my "liberal buddies" - I live in the rural South, not a lot of "liberals" around my way. Not a lot of people who give a damn about foreign policy at all for that matter. I do hear plenty of "fuck the rest of the world - lets keep our money here" sentiment. Besides - talking politics with people who agree with me is boring.
... and those who support them.
