is seen only in the movies--Thought the IRA & Hamas did use that punishment to deal with people they thought were squealers--

When someone is approaching with a 6" knife, and is warned to stop, and he doesn`t, his intentions aren`t peaceful--A knife, unlike a bullet makes a large hole, and the knife is usually filthy--

I am fairly certain you have read of Israeli police and soldiers that were stabbed--Now, tell me, why should any of them take a change??
