Avi Issacharoff, Haaretz Correspondent, and Reuters: IDF troops at checkpoint shoot dead knife-carrying Palestinian
Talkback
Title:#8 Deborah - Why did he carry a knife?
Name:* BEN JABO
City: USAState:
The dead man should have had more brains than to menace the IDF with a 6" knife--
The onus was on the dead man, not on IDF--
Too many IDF personnel & Police have been stabbed by knives--

Instead of the IDF using a stun gun, which would have meant that the assailant was too close, it used proper force to foil him--

It would be much better if you asked the deceased (if he were still alive) why he found it necessary to carry a 6 inch knife--
