The News on the Israel Street
Palestinian terror in the last 24 hours . . .
Palestinian terrorists attacked all day and night in every direction. A few examples:
*A Jerusalem policeman was wounded by “rocks” in Silwan. He is in “moderate” condition this morning.
*The Hashmonaim Checkpoint near Qalqilya was the scene of a thwarted stabbing attack.
*An IDF patrol was attacked with 3 IEDs near Beit El.
*Palestinian terrorists opened fire on Israeli motorists on Route 446 between Nili and Ofarim.
*An Israeli was wounded at Wadi Joz by “rock” throwing terrorists. She had to be evacuated to a nearby hospital.
*Palestinian terrorists shattered windows on a bus near Karmei Tzur in Gush Etzion.
*Palestinian terrorists in Hevron attacked and wounded an Israeli man near the Bakery Checkpoint.
*Palestinian terrorists attacked an IDF outpost near Hevron with two pipe bombs.

Sara Netanyahu to be indicted within 10 days . . . again . . .
Israel’s Channel 2, one of the three Israeli TV networks dedicated to the destruction of the Netanyahus, breathlessly announced last night that Sara Netanyahu would be indicted within 10 days.
Again.
Not indicted again. But announced that the indictment would come within 10 days again. Every 5 days for the last month, the news has crowed that Netanyahu would be indicted in 10 days.
Yesterday’s “10 day announcement” came without reference to the release of private polygraph tests yesterday showing that Netanyahu has been telling the truth concerning her role in everything from garden furniture to pizza delivery.
The entire witchhunt to get Sara Netanyahu is beyond pathetic–and is almost entirely based on the testimony of the former manager of the Prime Minister’s residence whom we have pictures of taking food by the truck load from the residence to his brother’s home.
Will she be indicted in the next 10 days? Probably.

Israel: Doing Something “Right” For A Change in Judea and Samaria
Wow!
Can you believe it?
In the space of three days:
1. Major General Roni Numa signed the order updating the power of the municipal committee of the Hevron Jewish community.
2. After 70 (yes 70) years, the Civil Administration registered 87.6 hectares (213 acres) to the Jewish National Fund. The land is located beside and within the boundaries of Kfar Etzion.
3. The government announced that it is spending 120 million shekels for the construction of the new settlement of Amihai which is being built to replace the Amona community which was destroyed back in July.
This is almost unprecedented in recent years. And if you add President Rivlin’s visit out to Ma’ale Adumim yesterday which seemed to suggest that he approved Israel sovereignty over that community–you have a fourth very good sign.
What do our “friends” the Palestinians have to say? Referring to the Hevron munipalization, the PLO declared it was racist, destructive, and “the most dangerous Israeli provocation since 1967.”
And our “friends” in B’Tselem and Peace Now? Apartheid. Apartheid. And apartheid.
All of which means that Israel is doing something right for a change.
