Terrorist sneaks into outpost, stabs man as family watches
2017-03-02
[IsraelTimes] A Paleostinian stabbed and lightly maimed a resident of the southern West Bank settlement outpost of Havat Mor inside his home on Wednesday, the army said.

The victim shot the alleged terrorist, who was pronounced dead on the scene by a local doctor, a spokesperson for the Magen David Adom ambulance service said.
Good.
The Paleostinian man had broken into the West Bank outpost in the Hebron Hills, the army said.

The man was in his home when he heard a noise outside. Leaving his home to investigate, he saw a Paleostinian man holding two knives, according to the Ynet news site.

The victim then ran back inside his house to get his pistol. The Paleostinian followed him into the living room and stabbed the Israeli man in front of his wife and children, according to the report.

The Israeli eventually managed to take out and use his gun on the attacker.

The victim, 33, suffered stab wounds to the limbs, Magen David Adom said. He was described as lightly injured.

The assailant was identified by the Paleostinian health ministry as Said Muhammad Ali Qisiyeh, 24, from al-Dharia, located near Hebron.

On Tuesday, police set up roadblocks and closed streets for several hours in response to suspicions of an unspecified "security incident" in the Beersheba-Rahat area, several kilometers south of the scene of Wednesday’s attack.

They lifted the precautions Tuesday night.

Israeli security officials have noted a marked drop in attacks in the last several months, following a several-month wave of violence starting in October 2015.

However,
some men learn by reading. A few learn by observation. The rest have to pee on the electric fence for themselves...
sporadic attacks have persisted.

Since October 2015, 40 Israelis, two Americans, a Paleostinian and an Eritrea
...is run by the People's Front for Democracy and Justice (PFDJ), with about the amounts of democracy and justice you'd expect from a party with that name. National elections have been periodically scheduled and cancelled; none have ever been held in the country. The president, Isaias Afewerki, has been in office since independence in 1993 and will probably die there of old age...
n national have been killed in stabbing, car-ramming and shooting attacks.

According to AFP figures, some 250 Paleostinians, a Jordanian and a Sudanese migrant have also been killed, most of them in the course of carrying out attacks, Israel says, and many of the others in festivities with troops in the West Bank and at the Gazoo border, as well as in Israeli Arclight airstrikes in the Gazoo Strip.
That's a nice ratio.
