Father of Tel Aviv terror suspect arrested
2016-01-05
Police on Tuesday arrested the father of Nahat Melhem, suspected of carrying out the terror attack on a Tel Aviv pub on Friday that killed three and wounded several more. Five others were arrested along with Mohammed Melhem on suspicion of acting as an accessory to murder.
Probably, won't start executing them until he surrenders---a pity.

I await further reports, g(r)omgoru. I know you Israelis will get to the truth.

#4  It's very odd. Ynet has an op-ed from a long-time friend of the family, who says the family are good Israeli citizens, and The Times of Israel reports a former employer says the shooter was practically a Boy Scout.

So I'm going to hope, until further evidence to the contrary is presented, that the purpose of these arrests is to get the shooter to turn himself in.

#3  so this would be the guy who called police to ID his son from news videos and who said you gotta catch him before he kills again? Quite a well-developed case of taqqiya, there....

Au contraire.
