Hmmm... Bat Yam bus bomb just like Boston Marathon bomb
The bomb that was used to blow up a Dan bus in Bat Yam last month was remarkably similar to the bomb that was used in the
Boston Marathon terror attack in April of last year.
The bomb that exploded last month on an evacuated public bus in
central Israel closely resembled the type used in the Boston Marathon
attack.
The
explosive in Bat Yam was enclosed in a pressure cooker and was
activated by a cell phone, according to the Shin Bet security service.
...
The bomb, which was placed in a black backpack with wires sticking
out, detonated on December 22. The passengers were evacuated from the
bus before the bomb was detonated after alerting the driver to a
suspicious package left on the vehicle, which was traveling from Bnei
Brak to Bat Yam.
The pressure-cooker bomb included more than four pounds of explosives and was surrounded by bails and screws.
At
the Boston Marathon in April, three people were killed and more than
250 were injured by a bomb allegedly made by brothers Dzhokhar and
Tamerlan Tsarnaev, possibly using an Al-Qaida manual online.
I saw online a while ago that the bomb was a pressure cooker and that it was activated by a cell phone. But until now, I thought that the only connection between the two bombings might have been the use of the al-Qaeda manual if that.
The fact that the Shin Bet has chosen to highlight the connection makes me think that there's more to it than the manual. Hmmm.

Protesting the Arab takeover of Bat Yam
Arutz Sheva says that '
hundreds' of people came out to Monday's
demonstration in Bat Yam, while
JPost says 200. So which was it?
Let's go to the videotape.
Baruch Marzel and the demonstrators got it right.
I don't understand why only the 'nationalists' are opposed to the assimilation in Bat Yam. All Orthodox Jews should oppose the assimilation in Bat Yam.

Jews for a Jewish Bat Yam
It's sad that such a demonstration is even necessary in Israel.
But it is.
After a rabbis' letter instructing Jews to not sell or rent apartments to Arabs, racist behavior reaches new low [not my view. CiJ]: An organization called Jews for a Jewish Bat Yam is expected to protest on Monday against the "assimilation of young Jewish women with Arabs living in the city or in nearby Jaffa."
The protest will be held around 7:30 pm near the Bat Yam mall, not far from the police station. The organizers are also expected to show support for the controversial rabbis' letter.
"It's a local organization of Bat Yam residents, because the public is tired of so many Arabs going out with Jewish girls," explained one of the organizers, Bentzi Gufstein. "In addition to the protest, we will hand out pamphlets explain the situation."
The organization behind this local protest is actually the Lehava organization, which works to prevent intermarriage in Israel. The right-wing activist Baruch Marzel and a few local rabbis will participate in the demonstration, and the organizers are expecting hundreds more.
During the past week, posters have been hung around the city calling residents to come out and protest. Some of the posters explain: "I will not allow them to hit on my sister! What would you do if an Arab hit on your sister? Put an end to it! Recently we have learned of a grave phenomenon: Hundreds of girls from Bat Yam and the center get together with Arabs, they are integrated amongst us, their confidence rising. Put an end to it! Lower their confidence!"
Another poster reads: "Keeping Bat Yam Jewish. Arabs are taking over Bat Yam, buying and renting apartments from Jews, taking and ruining Bat Yam girls! Around 15,000 Jewish girls have been taken to villages! Jews, come on, let's win!"
No, it's not a 'new low' as YNet claims. The Jewish people survivied for 3,000 years because we did not intermarry. Those who intermarry - God forbid - are lost to the Jewish people. In the case of Arabs marrying Jewish women, the women soon find themselves tortured prisoners. I am personally acquainted with people who rescue these women and hide them from their husbands. Remember
this story?
Read the whole thing. It's sickening that these people are being labeled 'racists.' Those of you who are in Israel may want to think about joining them tonight.
