Two Dead In Tel Aviv Shooting Attack, Car Bomb Explodes At Afghan Restaurant In Violent Start To New Year

Tyler Durden's picture




 

Just hours after Bavarian authorities closed the Hauptbahnhof and Pasing stations in Munich after Germany received a tip from French and American intelligence sources that a terrorist attack was planned for New Year’s Eve, two “incidents” have occurred in Kabul and Tel Aviv.

While it’s not clear if the two are related, at least one person is dead in a shooting at a Tel Aviv pub, and witnesses are reporting a large explosion at a restaurant in Kabul close to a district Reuters says contains many foreign embassies and government buildings. Both are being called "suspected terror attacks."

Reports indicate the shooter in Tel Aviv used an automatic rifle in the attack, firing 10 shots into a crowd. “At least seven were wounded, two critically, in the attack on Friday afternoon,” Haaretz reports, adding that “security forces and emergency teams rushed to the site, on the corner of Dizengoff and Gordon St., and are combing the area.”  A manhunt is underway for the suspect. Here's more from The Times of Israel:

Two people are dead and three are in serious condition in a shooting attack in Tel Aviv just before 3 p.m. Friday.

 

Witnesses say some 10 shots were fired in the attack, apparently in automatic bursts.

 

The shots were fired inside a bar at Dizengoff 122, near the city’s well-known Dizengoff Center Mall. The area is crowded on Friday afternoons.

Here's the stunning CCTV footage:

And here are the visuals from the scene in Tel Aviv:

Meanwhile, in Kabul, police say a car bomb targeted a restaurant popular with Afghan officials and foreign diplomats. "[An] official, who spoke on condition of anonymity because he is not authorized to speak to the media, said the explosion appeared to have hit "Le Jardin", one of a small number of restaurants in Kabul still frequented by foreigners," Reuters says, adding that "the explosion came days after the Taliban claimed responsibility for a suicide attack near Kabul airport that killed one person and wounded 33 others, the latest in a series of suicide attacks in the city."

Some sources say the attack in Israel may be an act of "nationalist terror," suggesting no immediate connection with ISIS and certainly not with the Taliban.

Even if the attacks aren't related, it says something about the state of society in the new year when terror attacks have become so commonplace that they accidentally happen at the same time in geographically distinct locations.

Happy New Year.

More wars and violence as the balkanization of the Middle East proceeds. The war on terror is meant to create more terror and mayhem.

Almost all attacks within Israel are commited by israeli arabs, whom are hebrew speakers and citizens of Israel. Not living under occupation.

That's interesting. I would have presumed the attacks were coming from Palestinian Israelis.

Can you elaborate on why they are attacking?

"Some sources say the attack in Israel may be an act of "nationalist terror,""

So this is Israeli Jew on Jew terror but gets piggy backed on actual internatioal terror.

Just watch how this is spoon fed US MSM style to the world.

LOL, all the christian zionist will be slurping this one up.

The israelis mount attacks on their own people just like they do in the USA in order to achieve political objectives. Watch as they take even more of what is left of Palestinian land.

Hmm, 9 is 3 squared.  6 divided by 2 divided by 1 is three.  Now what to do with the zero?  Add it then square the result and we're back to 9.  Cool?  And 6 minus two minus zero minus one is three!  Wow, I can do this all night!

So much turth here, this shit is deep.  /sarc

Nice joke, we get the gag.  2 3's for 33 at 3pm, and than the 33 from Kabbalah, er Kabul, right.  What bullshit, the two were put together precisely as a gag.  Three is your Binah/ Shekina that you adore with its 33 moons orbiting, change the numbers or tune, the repetition gets boring.

 

Only looked at the last twitter pic, so blooming obvious, the Israeli's playing the blue pillar, why the pic is weird blue, they're telling you, "you" must defeat Islam, not them, they don't intend to lift a finger to help.  As posted by Ur i cunt, didn't catch that one either, did you.  "You will defeat the devil terror that is

The # is the three on your keyboard, and also a magical seal in Kabbalah, seal of saturn, look it up.  It's all about the three, the 6 and 9 are the pillars in action doing the flip, controlled chaos.

2016 shows nothing on the horizon that will change the world’s current volatility (economic/social).  There will always be people that strike back for reasons to many to mention but we have a good idea what makes people resort to extreme choices.  Matters are made worse when placed in a cocktail of bad situations, served by the West and East, with no light of hope anywhere to be found.

 

It is easy to say “Peace” but that is just a title of a book with blank pages and to promote it without content (like most things) is a blank brain that should be on mute.   We need fresh approaches and they should not be the current PC choices.

Now don't get me wrong, as I am big on the 2nd A--- BUT.. the one thing that bothers me, as I carry a loaded AR 10 with a 1911 backup about everywhere I go, is who is the correct target when the shit starts flying?

 

With everybody blasting away at each other I am afraid we could have some instigator start shooting and then just disappear and let the 250 million armed individuals in this country unknowingly start shooting at each other.

Kinda like the jungles of Nam

Everyone has to go to the market sometime.  But the rest of the story is what happens when the police show up to said scenario above?

 

Knowing the police, anyone with a gun will be a target and here we go again.

 

If this starts happening then of course the only option that the gov can come up with is if you have a gun you are the enemy so for your own good and the good of the people, disarm.

Imho this is how it could work out.

If you are truely God's chosen people and you rule the world with such ease...why is it that I look around and all I see is suffering? Surely God's chosen could look after their goyim debt slaves better? Oh I see, your Talmud declares that us Goyim are filthy animals and we must be culled from time to time eh? Ok then, why are you so poor at even that job? The Zionist's can't even build a 3rd temple after 2000 years of trying since Rome crushed you all??? That stinks of weakness to me. What about more than 4000 years ago when you stole a load of Summerian fairy stories? Where was your God then? That's right nowhere. You Zionist's are at the very apex of your power right now. Seventy years ago the British "let" you have your stolen land for a high price of permenantly destabilising their surrounding oil fields to allow cheap extraction and you can't even complete your desired genocide cleanly in 70 years? Fucking amateurs...we British and our slow American children managed to effectively wipe out a whole culture within 50 years...Even with your complete control of a global usury scheme and the most sophisticated brain washing apparatus known to man you are failing....Your numbers are in the few millions and the Goyim are becoming more aware exponentially. The Internet was a grave error, the truth travels just as fast as your lies now. You must move quickly because your Goyim slave armies have been shown to be weak by the Christians from the North and the Persians... However, I respect Zionists like I respect a venomous snake or a Tiger...very dangerous...but NOT immortal and NOT undefeatable. Your hubris makes you weak. Even with your stolen Samson option, do you think that will save you from economic and demographic destruction? You might survive another 2 thousand years as you are very tenacious. However, I am sure the Egyptian civilisation thought they would last forever... Now they are dust, and so shall your "civilisation" be. In 10000 years the Abrahamic child genital mutilators will be merely a bloody footnote in history like the rest...So enjoy your industrial scale child raping politcal blackmail rings and debt based currency creation schemes while you can, because nothing lasts forever...not even that Yahweh/Satan you worship :)
