Stabbing of Non-member of Religion of Peace by a "youth" in Jerusalem
2006-08-12
An Arab assailant stabbed to death a European tourist in Jerusalem's Old City today, Israeli police said. Italian media quoted the Rome foreign ministry as saying the victim was a 25-year-old Italian, Angelo Frammartino, and that he had travelled to Israel last week to do volunteer work. "An Arab youth approached a group of three or four tourists from behind and stabbed one man before fleeing," a police spokesman said. "He died of his wounds." The spokesman declined to disclose the man's nationality, saying only that he was a European and that police believed he was likely the victim of a "terrorist attack".

#1   he was a European and that police believed he was likely the victim of a "terrorist attack".
Interesting. The police in Jerusalem know terrorism when they see it. OTOH in Seattle, when a gunman killed a woman and wounded five others in a Jewish community center, the police declared the shooting a "hate crime" carried out by a lone gunman.
