Arabs Celebrating the Murder of Pregnant Woman and 3 Others

I really didn't want to post this, purely because I am disgusted enough with these monsters as is. But I realized that if I want the news spread, I must spread it myself; and show my outrage and disgust for such actions. So I copied these pictures from Vicious Babushka, another blog worth reading, and made some modifications to the captions(all of the captions mentioned "peace talks" and I felt it took away from the real message that should be conveyed.Also read about the funeral, and the neglect of the media to cover the funeral, of these murdered Israelis, by VB.)

 Also see Elder of Ziyon on how we should expect more attacks after another shooting that wounded two. (I wonder, is Abbas laughing at the fact that Jews were killed or crying because it was Hamas that killed the Jews and not the PLO)

Arab Terror Attack Kills a Pregnant Mother and Her Husband Along With Two Others and The General Media is Mostly Silent

An Arab terror attack kills a pregnant mother and her husband, parents of six children, along with two others, and the general media is practically silent? Where is the outrage? You know, the same outrage that came when it was announced that Rabbi Ovadia Yosef said that god should smite Israel's enemies, and named Abbas specifically?
Only two papers mentioned it on YahooNews, whereas around five talked about the "fiery rabbi and his speech." Well, at least it was covered. Here is an excerpt from AP, a watered down version of the virulently antiSemitic AFP:

Assailants firing from a passing car riddled the vehicle with bullets as it traveled near Hebron — a volatile city that has been a flash point of violence in the past. Some 500 ultranationalist Jewish settlers live in heavily fortified enclaves in the city amid more than 100,000 Palestinians.
One of the victims was pregnant, said police spokesman Micky Rosenfeld. Israel's national rescue service said the victims were two men and two women, and Israeli media said everyone in the car was killed.
Video broadcast live on Israel TV late Tuesday showed a white Subaru station wagon standing at an angle at the side of a road, its windows shot out and its doors dotted with bullet holes. The car was flanked by army and police vehicles and dozens of soldiers.
The attackers fled and Israeli forces set up roadblocks and carried out searches to try to catch them.
About 3,000 people joined a rally in Gaza to celebrate the attack. Hamas military wing spokesman Abu Obeida was among them and told The Associated Press: "The Qassam Brigades announces its full responsibility for the heroic operation in Hebron."

Yet the paper suddenly twisted to talk about the talks:

A previous U.S. launching of Israeli-Palestinian peace talks was also accompanied by deadly violence. Palestinian gunmen shot and killed an Israeli in the West Bank before then-President George W. Bush convened Israeli and Palestinian leaders for a summit in Annapolis, Maryland, in November 2007. The gunmen said the attack was "an act of protest against the Annapolis conference."
Talking to reporters on his plane heading for Washington, Abbas called for decisive American involvement in the talks.
He said that if the two sides reach a deadlock, the Obama administration should "present bridging proposals to bridge the gap between the two positions."
In one major challenge to the first direct talks between the sides in two years, Abbas warned it would be difficult to continue negotiating if Israel fails to extend a 10-month curb on West Bank settlement constructionthat ends in late September. Netanyahu has not made a final decision.
 So, the main point is what this will do to the Peace Talks? Not the loss of human life by terrorists? Where is the media outcry?The silence is deafening and speaks volumes.

Update:Elder of Ziyon, one of my favorite news blogs, recommended looking at Backspin on the "disgraceful way AP illustrated the attack."
