JERUSALEM (TheBlaze/AP) — Palestinians carried out two stabbing attacks in Jerusalem on Saturday before being shot dead by police while another two Palestinians were killed during a violent demonstration near the Gaza border fence as a weeklong bout of violence showed no signs of slowing.
In the first stabbing on Saturday, a 16-year-old Arab attacked two Israelis who were walking from the Old City toward the city center, said police spokesman Micky Rosenfeld. Police opened fire, killing the attacker. The two victims were lightly wounded, Rosenfeld said.
Later, just outside the Old City, another Palestinian stabbed two police officers, one in the neck. Rosenfeld said other police forces opened fire and killed the attacker, but also wounded
The female Arab motorist who blew herself up at a West Bank checkpoint on her way to Jerusalem was critically injured, Israeli police confirmed. The police officer who pulled her over received minor injuries.
There are reports that additional explosives were found in the woman’s car, with speculation that they had been meant to be used for a terror attack in Jerusalem.

At least one Israeli police officer was injured as an alleged female Palestinian suicide bomber detonated an explosive device while passing a checkpoint in a vehicle going in the direction of Jerusalem, social media reports say. The car bomb suicide reportedly took place in a West Bank area near Ma’ale Adumim.

The people in this region seem really violent and angry all the time. I'm going to take a wild guess and say it's the lack of booze, pork and half naked women. Bringing that to the region is a mid east peace plan that will actually work.

So maybe my query isn't in the right thread, but I've been wondering, and it's probably easily explained:
Why do so many people worry about our alliance with Isreal? Is it just a religious thing? Is it a proxy-ish thing? Is it because they're powerful? Is it because we saved some people during WW2 and now we feel responsible? Is it because "they" are so ingrained with our culture (Hollywood, etc) that "they" are calling the shots on who we protect? (I use the parentheses because it's what I feel "some" people think how it is, or whatever...)
Well, Israeli jets have just bombed a pregnant Palestinian mother and her child.....can't really blame the Palestinians for being a tad peeved. Sure, Hamas may (or may not) have fired rockets at Israel, but if they did, reports are saying (as usual) no-one was hurt and the rockets were shot down.

Jeez I wonder if it has anything to do with the recent bombing raids Israel is carrying out on Palestine.

If somebody was hurt by Hamas rockets, perhaps.
It still doesn't justify Israeli actions, innocent people should never have to suffer or die like that.
