Israel On High Alert Ahead Of Yom Kippur
2012-09-25
Complete closure imposed on West Bank and Gazoo, increased police presence and security forces deployment -- all part of IDF, police preparations for 'holiest day' of year.

The special police alertness level which was put into effect ahead of the Rosh Hashanah holiday will continue during Yom Kippur and will only be terminated after the Simchat Torah holiday in 10 days time.

#4  When it comes to Islamist terrorism, Israel's Yom Kippur === America's 9/11. A date marked in their calendar.

When you can't afford to survive the lesson of a costly mistake, you learn from the costly mistakes of others...

#3  Jihadis hunting jihadis?

#2  I assume just a general precaution, Skidmark, especially with all the regional preparations for mayhem. Beyond that, your guess is probably better than mine. Is Egypt really massing on the border, or just moving tanks and airplanes into the area to hunt jihadis?

#1  Prep for the Holiday or reaction to Egypt massing on the border TW?
