The current wave of Arab terror has continued for over three months, and has kept up a steady pace of attacks which often occur multiple times per day.

So far there have been close to 1,000 security incidents since the middle of September when the attacks began. Of those, 296 incidents included injuries or fatalities. 29 Jews have been killed and 491 injured, of whom 342 have been civilians.

Analyst Nehemia Gershuni Eliyahu of Walla! News organized the statistics, which include attempted car-ramming attacks, shootings, firebombings, stabbings and arrests of those carrying knives, attacks are based on a nationalistic background, and rock-throwing attacks wherein there were injuries on any level.

In September the majority of attacks were rock throwing and firebomb attacks. During that time, 38 of the 89 attacks took place in eastern Jerusalem.

October was the most violent month of the current wave of terror during which 420 attacks were perpetrated. These attacks included 156 firebombings, 79 rock-throwing attacks, 41 shooting attacks, and five car-ramming attacks. October also saw a rise in knife attacks, and arrests made of individuals carrying an illegal knife, from four incidents in September to 78 such attacks and incidents in October.

November and December saw a dramatic decline in the number of terror attacks, except for car-ramming attacks which more than doubled to total of 12 in November and 11 in December, as opposed to five during the month of October.

Rock throwing attacks diminished by 67 percent and the number of shooting attacks lessened by half. The amount of stabbing attacks also diminished, from 78 in October, to 40 in November. In December the trend continued to decline t a total of only 31 attacks.

While there have been civilians who have stepped up to thwart attacks, and or become first responders, the statistics have shown that security forces – be they soldiers, Border Police or regular police – have been the primary responders to attacks.

Some 61 soldiers and another 61 Border Police officers have neutralized terrorists who have carried out attacks, as opposed to 13 security guards, and ten civilians who have done the same.

  1. Palestinians raise NIS 250,000 to rebuild terrorist’s home

    Muhannad Halabi, 19, murdered two Israelis in Jerusalem in October and wounded a 2-year-old; his house was destroyed by IDF on Friday

    http://www.timesofisrael.com/palestinians-raise-nis-250000-to-rebuild-terrorists-home/

    so will Israel allow it to be rebuilt? best to deport the families along with destroying their home. It is obvious that the pals support terror murder agianst Jews so instead of stalking phantom jews for questionable crimes the settlers should be armed and deployed in attacks against the terror collective. Peace is absurd until they change their culture… it took japan 2 atom bombs and many decades of occupation with complete control of their culture… and now they are best of friends. the jew killing culture of Islam should be banned from Israel and any territories under its control. anti semitism should bring mandatory deportation in the homeland and safe haven for Jews. Right now their is more muslim abuse and murder of Jews in Israel than France with the GOI doing nothing to attack the collective Jew killers in their homes.

  2. Israel: Milhem was a terrorist acting alone, but he had lots of help when hiding out

    “He received full help, in particular from his close relatives,” local residents told Ynet. “He slept in a different location every day. They brought him food and took care of him.”

    http://www.timesofisrael.com/israel-milhem-was-a-terrorist-acting-alone-but-he-had-lots-of-help-when-hiding-out/?utm_source=The+Times+of+Israel+Daily+Edition&utm_campaign=6081fc5425-2015_01_10&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_adb46cec92-6081fc5425-54816837

    The GOI is frantically trying to maintain their narrative that the murder and stabbings are not organized but like their Duma rubbish everything points otherwise.

    IMO the family pre planned his escape with help and immediately got him back into their area where the killer was helped by them and the whole village. Of course the father came out early when the killer was safe, as a distraction and red herring for plausible deniability of their involvement and a ruse to keep their home from being demolished like the other recent case. Sorry, but the whole thing was pre planned to a T.

    Contrast this behavior of BB to do everything possible to paint it as an individual crime as opposed to his and rivlin, erdan and yaalon’s relentless and continuous attempts to paint a picture of a dangerous jewish conspiracy of terrorists in order to give their fraud credibility….. …..yet we have no evidence of any one helping the supposed Jewish terrorists and certainly not an entire village of jewish settlers.

    Once more the GOI shows their dishonesty in denying organized arab terror compared to their decision to declare their fake Jewish terror conspiracy world wide. Am I the only one to notice this difference in MO and wonder why?

  3. HMMM, looks like these events call for this conclusion:

    Netanyahu: Israel needs to close gap between Arabs and Jews with law enforcement, resources…
    http://www.jpost.com/Arab-Israeli-Conflict/PM-Gvt-needs-to-close-gap-between-Arabs-and-Jews-through-resources-law-enforcement-440983

    Wow, why didnt I come up with this fantastic solution to the daily muslim abuses of Jews on the Mount, the daily stabbings and murders of Jews, the illegal euro building of muslim homes in the jewish homeland, the fact that a whole Israeli arab village aided and abetted the Tel Aviv terrorist……….

    When you really look at it BB’s conclusion and solution appears to make obvious sense…. DUH??????

    this approach began with the success of the Marshall plan but in that plan the US completely decimated and slaughtered their enemies with 2 atom bombs in Japans case and fire bombings of civilians in Germany. After they decimated the enemy they occupied them for many decades and completely changed their internal culture so that today we have the decendents of those we atom bombed playing baseball with no links backwards to their warlike and dangerous culture. Without the initial decimation and humiliation, without the complete control of the culture in religion and education… the Marshall Plan scenario is irrelevant and unsuccessful.

    Hence, building up the 5th column and pals without totally dismantling and overhauling their culture of islamic anti semitism and violence will prove again… over and over…. to be futile….. even when BB and Benett proclaim the narrative. This is where kumbaya jews lose their heads.
