One person was killed and three others wounded in a shooting attack at the Adorayim Junction south of Hevron in Judea.

The fatality has been identified as a 40, who was traveling in his car with his family when it was targeted.

His wife was seriously wounded in the attack, and was evacuated to Jerusalem’s Hadassah Ein Kerem hospital with multiple gunshot wounds to her upper body.

Two other family members were also wounded in the attack, one moderately and the other lightly.

According to initial reports, a “Kia” model car overtook the family as they drove along Route 60 and opened fire, striking both parents and causing the car to overturn. The other family members were apparently injured from the crash.

IDF forces responded quickly and are currently pursuing the terrorists who carried out the attack.

The attack bears a chilling resemblance to the drive-by shooting which targeted another Jewish family in the same area in November last year.

Rabbi Yaakov Litman and his son Netanel were murdered in that attack, as they were traveling with their family. Thhat deadly attack also took place on a Friday, not long before Shabbat.

The latest attack comes just hours after an attempted stabbing at the Tomb of the Patriarchs in nearby Hevron.

In that incident, a female Arab terrorist was shot dead when she drew a knife and attempted to stab Israeli soldiers guarding the holy site. There were no Israeli casualties in that incident.

Yesterday (Thursday), a 13-year-old Israeli girl was murdered as she slept in her bed in the town of Kiryat Arba, by an Arab terrorist armed with a knife. The terrorist also wounded a member of the town’s security team responding to the attack before other security team members shot him dead.

As the funeral of young Hallel-Yaffa Ariel took place, further north in Netanya a second Arab terrorist struck, wounding two civilians at a local market before being shot dead.

    If the victims would have been MP’s / family of MP’s ( member of israeli parliament/govenment) and not just some” troublemaking, vilified, hated settlers” – now would be the time when the israeli government / the IDF would start a large operation to once and for all stop the Abbas incited mass murdering of Jews in Israel….

    But as with Shalit – probably nothing really will happen !
    Oh sorry – forgot to mention that the IAF has now flattened some empty terror buildings in Gaza – AFTER informing the terrorists in advance to run for safety…..Wow – this surly will scare the arab/muslim murderes and their inciters ( Abbas & buddies )….

    Where is the common sense of former times / former governments when the IDF acted according to ”an eye for an eye ” ?
    Has everybody become ”politically correct ? ”

    Today , peple seem to prefer to be murdered being ”politically correct” instead of using good old common sense and extinguish the enemies and stay alive…..

    Israeli government has forsaken / left behind the Jews living in historical Israel ( Judea & Samaria ) – the israeli government wants to be internationally ”politically correct’…..

    The israeli government has forgotten the fact that whenver you forsake those most vulnerable / exposed of your society / nation , the society / nation itself is endangered…
    Example : in Europe, the Jews are forsaken, left alone to cope with muslim terror against Jews. Now this has lead to europe becoming the target of muslim terror…See ?

    Hopefully some brave people in the government will rise now and demand that ALL israeli citizens are treated + protected equally….even if they live in historical Israel (!)…

    If israeli government is not stopping this arab / muslim murder wave NOW – the israeli government will be co – responsible for every further jewish baby, child, woman and man who will be murdered by arab / muslim murderers from NOW on….

    Will the israeli government finally do what has to be done ?
    Maybe the government has to talk to Big Brother BHO first and ask for his permission….

    Too bad for the average israeli citizen who is murdered because the israeli government is NOT doing its job to protect ALL israeli citizens equally…
