bus fire in Jerusalem possible terrorist attack-molly Mitchell 5th

summary

21 people were injured in a recent explosion within a bus in Jerusalem. The Israeli Prime Minister is documenting it as a terrorist attack, while police are a bit skeptical, they claim that it may have simply been a crime, although terrorist groups are praising the attack. Although these attack seemed to have been declining as of recent, its obvious they aren't going away for a while.

analysis

This bus attack is just one of many attacks in Jerusalem over Palestinian-Israeli tensions, stabbings to being run over are just the tip of the iceberg on these attacks. Its extremely sad to see these attacks continue, but can't help remind us of a time when tensions were high between the apparent American Communists and the American-Americans in the early 1900s.
