What difference does it make? Hamas lauds terror attack, Abu Mazen calls it 'natural response' to Israeli 'crimes'
The world still doesn't get it. Or doesn't want to get it. Russian Nikolay Mladenov is the UN Special Coordinator for the 'peace process.' He condemned the attack:
And yet, he expressed shock that Hamas celebrated the attack.I condemn the #terror attack in #TelAviv, all must reject violence & say #NO2terror. Our prayers are with the families of those killed— Nickolay E. MLADENOV (@nmladenov) June 8, 2016
And my prediction that Abbas would declare the terrorists 'heroes' or 'martyrs' or something similar did not take long to come true.Shocked? In what cave do u live? What will you say when the 'moderate' Abbas declares the terrorists heroes/martyrs? https://t.co/SUVs6MfAd1— (((IsraelMatzav))) (@IsraelMatzav) June 8, 2016
.@nmladenov This is the 'moderate' Abbas' 'condemnation.' Told you so. https://t.co/FW4srXJ935— (((IsraelMatzav))) (@IsraelMatzav) June 8, 2016
This morning, the 'moderate' 'Abbas' goes even further, by himself, calling last night's terror attack a 'natural response' to Israeli 'crimes.'
But Mladenov was not the only one whose reaction belied sincerity. Here's the EU's Federika Mog with my response.Unexpectedly! https://t.co/QVuRmraJo6— (((IsraelMatzav))) (@IsraelMatzav) June 9, 2016
And Gaza was not the only place they celebrated. Here's a picture from a NATO country of a celebration of the Tel Aviv terror attack. Can you guess in which country this took place?Right.... As if those who wish to make themselves shahids will be deterred by being 'brought to justice.' https://t.co/cI0zNf1NyF— (((IsraelMatzav))) (@IsraelMatzav) June 9, 2016
And finally, for those who have not seen it yet, here's a harrowing video of last night's terror attack.
Let's go to the videotape.

Mrs. Carl and I went out to dinner here in Jerusalem shortly before the attack happened. The place where we ate had actually had a suicide bombing very close by during the intifada in the early 2000's, and I was surprised to see that there was no security guard outside. My guess is that you go back tonight, there will be one there.
The 'Palestinians' continue to look for opportunities to murder us. Occasionally, they succeed. Fortunately, it's far less often than it was 15 years ago.
By the way, the United States and Hillary Clinton have condemned last night's terror attack. I have not yet seen any condemnation issued by President Obama or Donald Trump. If you see one, please give me a holler. I've been too busy working to post much recently....

Exactly how close is that cafe to the Kirya, just across the street or on the other side of the Market? Could they have been hoping to catch some MoD or IDF staff there?
This is just out from Donald Trump:
I condemn, in the strongest possible terms, the outrageous terrorist shootings that took the lives of at least four innocent civilians and wounded at least twenty others in Tel Aviv yesterday.
The Israeli security forces’ investigation is ongoing, but some facts have already emerged — and they are grim.
Just as fast as the condolences arrive from the civilized world is the praise arising out of the uncivilized one. Hamas praised the attack, calling the attackers “heroes.” Reports out of Hebron indicate that residents of the terrorists’ hometown lit up the night sky with celebratory fireworks. One Palestinian “news organization” even referred to the shootings, in which the assailants dressed up as observant Jews, as a “Ramadan treat.” The leader of Hamas called the injured terrorist a “hero.” How despicable!
The American people stand strong with the people of Israel, who have suffered far too long from terrorism. Israel’s security is a matter of paramount importance to me and the American people.
We understand all too well the unspeakable horror that terrorism unleashes. To address it — and address it we must! — we must recognize the parallel horror of the culture of religious hatred that permeates many Palestinian quarters. From schools that indoctrinate toddlers to grow up to kill Israelis to the daily menu of hate that spews forth from various “news organizations,” change is long overdue in the Palestinian territories.
Let us begin the arduous task of creating a future where peace can take root and terror finds no refuge.
I express my deepest condolences to the families of the four Israelis who were murdered, as well as my wishes for a speedy recovery to the wounded.

Carl, never mind my prior about the restaurant's location v/v the Kirya. I just found it on the company's website. pBMb
Nothing from Obama, of course. He's allowing the State Department comments to speak for him. The latest of which is tone deaf.

Innocents slaughtered by those who come from a savage and terrorist culture. I'm most horrified by Fatah's written statement, and Abbas' recent comment. It's a given that Hamas will glorify such murders. Abbas' & Fatah's statements proves again that Ban Ki Moon's statement, months ago, that such barbaric behavior is an "understandable response", has given Fatah/PA 'cover' to continue full time incitement of their population. He too, has a lot of blood on his hands in my opinion.
