Maybe I'm old fashioned. But I think people should take responsibility for their own actions.
If you leave your windows open and there's snow all over your seat, you should take responsibility. If you toss your keys in a dumpster, it's your fault. And if you try a car bombing and it costs you a hand, it's not the fault of your victims.
But Muslim terrorists don't seem very responsible. Here's the story from Aussie Dave at Isreallycool.
A palestinian woman tries to detonate a car bomb at a checkpoint. Ends up only causing a fire in her car, resulting in her sustaining serious burns on her face, hands, back and chest, and resulting in her hand being amputated.
And in typical palestinian style, they have found a way to blame her hand amputation on Israel.
Here's the PIC spin.
Israa Jaabis, from the occupied East Jerusalem neighborhood of Jabal al-Mukabbir, sustained serious burns on her face, hands, back and chest when fire broke out in her car due to a faulty domestic gas cylinder she had in the back seat while she was near an East Jerusalem checkpoint in Oct. 2015.
It's funny how these things just happen. You're at a checkpoint, which is a common target of terrorist attacks, and a fire just'breaks out' in your gas cylinder.
Police stopped Israa Jaabis, 31, the would-be bomber, as she drove on a highway between Jerusalem and Maale Adumim, an Israeli settlement in the occupied West Bank. She shouted “Allah Akbar” (God is the greatest) before detonating her bomb.
One police officer was slightly injured. Jaabis suffered burns to 40 per cent of her body and was taken to a Jerusalem hospital.
Shin Bet, the internal security agency, said Jaabis had tried to ignite a gas cylinder and was carrying leaflets in support of Palestinians killed in clashes with Israeli forces.
Obviously she just happened to be carrying terrorist leaflets and was shouting, "Allahu Akbar" to greet the Israelis just as a fire happened to start.
Here's more on this tragic accident.
A Palestinian driver yelled ‘Allahu Akbar’ (God is great) and there was an explosion, said police officer Moshe Chen who foiled a car bombing attack on the road to Jerusalem early Sunday morning.
“You always hear of terrorist attacks and suddenly I was in one, boom, that’s how it is,” the lightly wounded police offer told reporters as he lay in a hospital bed in Sha’are Tzedek Medical Center.Security forces found handwritten notes in her possession that contained messages of support for “martyrs,” the Shin Bet said.
A woman sat in the driver’s seat, but there were no other passengers in the car, even though she was driving in the commuter lane, which is designated for buses or groups of three or more people, he said.
Chen said he continued to drive but her car moved closer and closer to his vehicle, as if to catch up with it, in a way that made him nervous.
“I felt that something was wrong,” Chen said.
He was able to stop her car, exit his and speak with her.“I told her that she had violated a traffic regulation, but she seemed not to understand what was happening. She spoke in Arabic and then she said, ‘Allahu Akbar’ and I saw that some smoke was coming out of the car,” Chen said.
Initially, he said he thought something had possibly caught fire in the car and contemplated getting a fire extinguisher to put it out, when there was an explosion.
“It was then that I understood she was a terrorist,” he said.“People tried to offer help. I asked them to stay away because there was a terrorist,” Chen said.
“Some of them had weapons and I told them not to shoot at the woman. She was wounded and did not pose a danger. I called for more police and security forces to come to the scene,” he said.
Photographs in the first moments of the incident show the woman on the ground on the road along with Chen.
In a tape recording of the call Chen made to the police dispatcher, Chen can be heard slightly breathless describing the situation and asking for help.
“I am on the road in the direction of the A-Zaim junction from the Adumim junction. A woman drove alone in the public transportation lane. I saw her acting suspiciously, she yelled ‘Allahu akbar’ [‘God is great’]. It seems as if she has set off a device. I am lightly wounded, the terrorist is on the ground, the car is burnt, it was going to burn, someone there put out the fire with a fire extinguisher.
“I don’t know if I am lightly wounded, I am in shock, I have suffered some burns,” Chen added. “The device went off, she detonated the device.”In the hospital, Chen told reporters,“I could have died, but I am here, healthy and whole. I am very emotional,” Chen said while explaining that he has four children.
“My son told me that his father is a hero,” he said.
There seems to be rather little interest in Chen's health and welfare.
Adnan Damiri, spokesman for the Palestinian Authority security forces, however, accused the Israel Police of “fabricating” the story about the car.
He said an official investigation conducted by the PA showed that the woman’s car had been intercepted by an Israeli police vehicle.
“When the woman stopped the car, the airbag in front of the driver’s seat suddenly went off,” Damiri claimed. “The policeman saw this as an excuse to open fire at the woman when she tried to get out of the car. That’s why the Israel Police fabricated the story, which is a lie and misleading.”
If there was no explosion, how did she suffer burns all over her body? But you can't expect the compulsive liars of the PLO to have any kind of consistency. And so after all the money that Israeli taxpayers spent on taking care of this terrorist, it's all Israel's fault.
Jaabis had to have eight of her fingers amputated following the fire in 2015; Israel's deliberate medical negligence has worsened her health condition that she had to have her hand amputated.
I suspect that her suicide bombing had something to do with that amputation.
