A security guard shot and killed an Israeli man on Friday at one of Judaism's holiest sites in Jerusalem, the Western Wall, which was immediately shut to visitors, police said.

The guard opened fire after the man, in an adjacent restroom, was heard shouting "Allahu Akbar," Arabic for "God is greatest", police spokesman Micky Rosenfeld said.

Rosenfeld said the guard opened fire with his pistol because he suspected the man was a Palestinian militant. "The fact he shouted Allahu Akbar, that seems to be why the security guard drew his weapon and fired a number of shots at him," he said.

Busybody will be sending him a medal.

Perhaps it was the Vengeful Hand of Allah moving to smite one of his despised children, an insect loathsome in His Perfect Sight.


In fact, I'm quite sure of it.


Oh Ye of no Faith . . . .

I don't blame people for being trigger happy there. Not one bit.
