Can’t help but wonder if this was intentional.
Al tiftach peh, but even worse, will other yishmoeilim yimach shmom get ideas that crashing cars (like planes) is easier to pull off than wearing a bomb.
Lets hope it was just an accident and we only hear bisuros tovos
YRK –
I seriously doubt a driver on one side of the highway would be able to positively identify the religion/nationality of the driver of a car coming in the opposite direction in enough time to act on your “suicide car” theory. It was a tragic accident.
just,
I dont’ hear your s’vara. Rov drivers in West Jerulasem are Yidden. And from their perspective, if they accidnetally kill an aino-yehudi, nisht g’ferlach, it was still a good try.
That is true, but there was one such case about 20 years ago where an Arab trucker forced a car with two rebbeim and their two sons off a cliff. They were all killed instantly – he was a friend of the family. There are many other such stories where Arab cars intentionally drove into bus stops, or bulldozers into private cars etc.
In light of all that, this does sound like an accident. In Israel, cars often pass other cars by going into opposing traffic.
yrk-
accourding to the police, the jewish woman was the cause of the accident.i would also agree with justajew, that it would be hard to identify who is driving in your direction.as far as the location of the accident, adam/chizma highway is not in jerusalem at all,rather east of jerusalem in the direction of the west bank.

According to the police, the jewish woman caused the accident, by mistakenly entering the lane of oncoming traffic.furthermore i agree with justajew that it would be hard to pull off an accurate attack in such a manner. btw Michoel, adam chizma highway is not in jerusalem, rather east of jerusalem in the direction of the west bank, and a very large percentage of the cars driving there are arabs.
