Danny, one thing I’ve noticed in some of the reports, especially from one girl who survived by sitting quiet in a bush for hours, is the incredible “energy” mentioned of the terrorists. Based on this outrageous bloody and heartless rampage that went on and on, I am wondering what all these terrorist were high on. I think there is something they are all taking to make them into such heartless, sick attackers (much more wound up on more than just their sick training and corrupt values and their hate) . I don’t know much, but it could be something other than speed …maybe like meth. Maybe there’s a way to find out what this is and find out if any of those medical supplies Israel used to let through are that drug. And stop it in future.

I may not be articulating this very well, but I think that is worth looking into. I am over here in Ohio and I don’t really know whom to share this idea with or what it helps- I think this drug makes them feel super powerful, certainly more than a strong coffee or say Red Bull energy drink. Details I know, but still.

I think it started in zest during the "Knife Intifada." I couldn't figure out how an Arab could be walking down the street and with one quick strike kill or incapacitate their victim. Stabbing a person to death is not so simple, especially if the victim puts up a fight. But if the victim is calmly walking down the street minding their own business, and the attacker is overdosed with adrenaline (meth-induced) focused solely on piercing the victim's neck, then we can understand. A meth-crazed assailant can be stopped--with a bullet through the eyes. That is why most Israelis will be armed in the near future.

I wonder if they can stop that and if they also make any effort to check the blood of the perpetrators that they did catch I need a terrorist that they did catch/shoot

I agree... Arab "Assassins " in the past were called that because of the hashish they took before killing (probably combined with some other drug).

This is the second time I’m hearing this theory. I believe it’s worth investigating.

I had known of the Hebron massacre, but hadn’t known the details. I will, as horrific as it is,see if i can get hold of Londres book. Many years back, an Israeli colleague of mine who had fought in the Haganah and the War of Independence told me, The British were our enemies, but they had rules of conduct. The Arabs on the other hand, did not. The dragged the bodies of their victims through the streets snd mutilated them. The scenes were so terrible, the press decided not to publish the photos.

Like most Jews here in the USA, and all around the world, I and my friends are heartbroken by the events of the past week. Sadly, it is in some ways a repetition of the arrogance displayed by some of the leaders and planners of Israel's military. Think Bar Lev Line. Hopefully the thinking and the "Conception" of the planners will change permanently and Israel will suffer no more of these types of incidents.
