More terrorism - this time by fire. From The Jerusalem Post:

As Israel burns, are we looking at a new form of eco-terrorism?
With hundreds of wildfires currently raging across Israel for a third consecutive day, many are concerned that this may be a new form of terrorism.

Israel Police estimate that over 200 fires have broken out throughout central and northern Israel since Wednesday and assessments by police have strengthened suspicions that many the fires were deliberately set, some suspected of being nationalistically motivated.

"since Wednesday" - that would be Wednesday, November 23rd. Today is Thursday, November 24th. More:

The wildfires have been cheered by many on social media, using the hashtag #اسراييل_تحترق or #IsraelBurns, many saying that this is divine retribution for the pending controversial law to limit loudspeakers for the Muslim call to prayer.

Last week Hamas leader Khaled Mashaal said that “what the Israeli occupation state is doing at the Al-Aqsa Mosque, as well as preventing the call to prayer in Jerusalem, is playing with fire. This created a fierce reaction in the Palestinian community and the whole of the Islamic nation.”

Israel is our only friend in the Middle East - she is the one outpost of Democracy in the entire riegon. For those who profess sympathies for the Palestinians, you need to read your history and see that the organizer of the current Palestinian nation is a KGB plant and that the current leader - Mahmoud Abbas- is also a Russian mole.
