Palestinian Attacks in Jerusalem Using Construction Vehicle - Again
[AP/Washington Post ] Laurie Copans - A Palestinian attacker turned a construction vehicle - a backhoe loader - into a fearsome weapon in downtown Jerusalem on Tuesday, ramming a bus, overturning a car and injuring numerous people before he was shot dead, in the second attack of its kind in less than a month. In both cases the attackers were from eastern Jerusalem, where Palestinian residents hold Israeli ID cards and can move freely. The attack had Israeli Jews questioning whether they could continue to let Palestinians from eastern Jerusalem freely enter the Jewish section.
