Palestinians Murder 8 Jews on "Bulletproof" Bus


(FOX News/Jerusalem Post) - At least three Palestinian terrorists in IDF uniforms ambushed an armored bus near Emmanuel, 20 miles east of Tel Aviv, on Tuesday afternoon, tossing grenades through the windows and shooting at civilians trapped inside. Three members of one family were among the victims - a 9-month-old baby, her father, and her grandmother. Nineteen people were wounded including a 2-year-old, two 12-year-olds, and a pregnant woman. Eight are in serious condition. When the town's security officer drove to the scene, "I saw three soldiers at the side of the bus. I was happy, seeing they had already arrived...[and then] they shot at me." The IDF chased the terrorists and killed one Wednesday morning, with 3 soldiers wounded in the exchange. Seven months ago terrorists attacked a bus near the same location, murdering 11 and wounding scores.
