Terrorist Attack Foiled in Jerusalem, Soldier Killed in Schem (Nablus)
11:31 am Israel time: A terrorist attack was foiled in Jerusalem. A Palestinian was found with bomb in his bag. He was detained and the bomb is being exploded now.
[Personal update: I don't usually listen to music during the three weeks - but in between news reports on the radio they are playing songs - old ones. The ones they played twenty plus years ago when I was a student in Israel when the Lebanon war started in 1982. David Broza, Arik Einstein, etc. None of the modern stuff they usually play. Interesting to see.]
9:11 am Israel time: IDF radio is now reporting that one soldier killed, another two wounded seriously in Schem (Nablus). The soldiers were going after terrorists and a bomb was thrown at them in the casbah. Shimrit Meir reports that Al-Aksa Martyrs Brigade took responsibility for this attack and they say that it was under orders to heat up the situation in Israel in order to make it difficult for the IDF to fight in Lebanon.
9:06 am Israel time: Ynet reports that Palestinians threw two Molotov cocktails at a synagogue in the Ramat Shlomo neighborhood in Jerusalem. No injuries reported.
9:03 am Israel time: Rockets hit Kiryat Shmona.
8:34 am Israel time: Two Kassams land in Ashkelon, no injuries reported so far.
7:30 am Israel time: Katyusha lands in Acco, two slightly injured. Reports of rockets landing in Tzfat.
7:05 am Israel time: Warning sirens go off in Tiberias. About an hour ago the sirens went off in Haifa but there was no katyusha attack

"One ought never to turn one's back on a threatened danger and try to run away from it. If you do that, you will double the danger. But if you meet it promptly and without flinching, you will reduce the danger by half."
Sir Winston Churchill
Our prayers are with you and yours and may God keep a hedge of protection around your nation.
...as a matter of fact, I'm buggin' Him about it right now.
