    The suspect, Mohammad Yunis Ali Abi-Henek, from near Bethlehem, carried out the terror attack near Adam Square in Jerusalem.

    The Shin Bet investigation found that the suspect expressed the desire to end his own life on the day of the attack. On the same day the terrorist bought a kitchen knife and hid it in his jacket. He took a taxi from Ramallah towards Bethlehem whilst trying to decide which person he would target. The assailant noticed an officer and got out of the taxi, stabbed the officer in the back and fled the scene, according to the Shin Bet.

    The Shin Bet vowed to “continue to act with all the means at its disposal to prevent terror attacks and to bring to justice terrorists even if the attack has long passed.”

    I draw your attention to a grave error in this report; you refer to the fictional city of Jerusalem – why? We all know it is really Al-Quds…..

    Isn’t it? If not, kindly stop calling Yehuda and the Shomron by the name given to it by the occupying forces of Trans-Jordan for 19 years.

    Now he can look forward to a life of 5 daily prayers, 3 meals, healthcare, world cup soccer matches, instead of the death penalty.
