So now they hit near the intended target - 100 yards from Ariel
Scheinman Sharon's tromping grounds. So Arafats quarters got it, and
they near Sharons.....and Netanyahu still smiling. Strange these
places where the kids hang out are hit - for you see the more radical
Rabbis when the russian kids were killed at the Disco sounded like Jerry
Falwell, for he felt the kids would better be somewhere worshiping their
war mongering God.
So the show goes on - and now they bring it to our shores. Is it worth
it?

Eleven killed, dozens injured in suicide bombing in JerusalemBy Haim
Shadmi, Jonathan Lis and Anshel Pfeffer, Ha'aretz Correspondents and
Ha'aretz ServiceEleven people were killed and 52 were injured Saturday
evening when a suicide bomber blew himself up in the Jerusalem
neighborhood of Rehavia.
The bombing took place on the corner of Azza and Balfour streets, near
the Moment cafe.
Both the Al Aqsa Martyrs Brigades, a militia linked to Palestinian
Authority Chairman Yasser Arafat's Fatah movement, and the military wing
of Hamas, Iz a Din al-Kassam, claimed responsibility for the attack.
According to Magen David Adom emergency workers, 52 people were wounded
in the attack, nine of them seriously and nine moderately.
The wounded were taken to Shaare Zedek Hospital, Hadassah University
Hospital, Ein Karem, and Hadassh University Hospital, Mt. Scopus.
The attack took place approximately 100 meters (yards) from Prime
Minister Ariel Sharon's official residence. Sharon was not there at the
time.
Jerusalem Police Chief Mickey Levy said the assailant walked into the
cafe and detonated an explosive device. "This is a very, very serious
attack," Levy said. He said that the proximity of the attack to the
prime minister's residence was "a coincidence."
Levy said that the suicide bomber was 22-years-old and was not a
resident of Jerusalem. Levy said that police officers searched the area
for additional explosive devices, and none were found. Police are also
searching for an individual suspected of driving the suicide bomber to
the site of the attack.
A waitress at the Moment cafe told Ha'aretz that the cafe was packed at
the time of the attack. "The suicide bomber stood at the entrance behind
the door. There was a great explosion... all the people sitting next to
the bar were hit," the waitress said.
