One person is dead, as many as five are in critical condition and at least one is seriously hurt in a shooting attack in Tel Aviv just before 3 p.m. Friday.
Initial reports say the shooter may have been caught, but authorities could not confirm the report. A police manhunt remains underway for the attacker, with roads around the attack site closed by police.

A total of 10 casualties are reported.
Medics are attempting to resuscitate one victim at the scene. At least eight others are evacuated to nearby hospitals, including Sourasky Medical Center Ichilov in Tel Aviv, Sheba Medical Center at Tel Hashomer in Ramat Gan and Beilinson Hospital in Petah Tikva.
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.
Tel Aviv Mayor Ron Huldai called on residents “to be alert,” saying “this looks like nationalist [terror], but it still isn’t clear” what the motive was.
Terrorism “attempts to frighten us and disrupt our lives. I urge everyone to take a deep breath, relax, and we will take care of this.”

Too bad it’s only one dead. I’d really like to read about the whole goddamn city being wiped off the map.
2016 is getting off to great start !!!
A random shooting. They happen daily in most any major metropolitan area. But let’s run 24/7 coverage ad-nauseum into the mix and declare a modern day holohoax because a couple kikes ate some lead in Jooville.
Right…blame it on a Palestinian, so they can destroy what’s left of Gaza!
More evidence that God just loves those physical Jews, aka those who refused to accept the promise made to Abraham, and now they are NOT chosen.
‘jews’ were never God’s Chosen to begin with, DL. They were the descendants of Esau, not Jacob.
That would be the Hebrews.
Absolutely #1
“Ben-David said the shooter’s calm demeanor and the way he was holding and shooting the gun show he was well trained. According to Ben-David, a Quran, the Muslim holy book, was found later in the attacker’s bag.”
“Channel 10 also reported that the shooter used an assault rifle and fired about 30 shots. It said that Israeli police and special forces were going house to house in the area, searching for the gunman.”
This is what JERUSALEM (AP) is saying.

“One person is dead, as many as five are in critical condition and at least one is seriously hurt in a shooting attack…”
That’s seven…
“A total of 10 casualties are reported.”
Okay, a slight discrepancy there.
“Witnesses say some 10 shots were fired in the attack,..”
Excuse me? 10 for 10???
wow… 🙄
It had to be a Jewish shooter.
If it was a Palestinian, it would have been all over the story.
Maybe someone should give the Palestinians advance notice, so THEY, TOO, can sit on the bank, BBQ, and cheer?
And OF COURSE the Quran was left. I’m just surprised a photo ID was not also conveniently left, too.
