An Israeli woman was lightly injured in a shooting attack Sunday night in the West Bank just hours before the government-imposed 10 month freeze on settlement construction was scheduled to come to an end.
The attack took place in the South Hebron Hills on Road 60 near the settlement of Teneh Omarim. The woman was shot in the leg while she was driving along the highway in her car.

I heard the only building they did, was the foundation work, so when the deadline ends, they can build the houses very quickly. Other then that, I am un-aware of them building structures [houses/buildings] during the freeze..
"There is not and never has been a freeze on construction in Jerusalem, nor will there ever be," said Yishai, whose approval of a 1,600 new housing units in East Jerusalem during U.S. Vice President Joe Biden's visit in March sparked tension in U.S.-Israeli ties.

Yup, pretty dumb move IMHO, and not consistent with either Jewish or Christian scriptures. But given all the provocations, it truly takes supernatural self control to avoid falling into a revenge mentality. That is where true religion steps in, to provide that self control. The Bible calles it " the peace of God that is beyond all understanding."

I don't know what that man's background was, but I could imagine if you've lost loved ones, you could be put over the edge. Unfortunately what I see is a lot of horrific mind control and propaganda going, spreading a doctrine of hate.

As for the Kaaba, it is very unlikely that Abraham had anything to do with it. Prior to the campaign of Muhammed, the area was a center for paganism, and in particular the moon god cult of Sin, which eventually became Muhammed's standard. There is an interesting discussion about it here.
