Israeli police protect a Jewish worshipper at the Western Wall from stones during clashes between Palestinians and Israeli border police at the Jerusalem’s Old City, April 2, 2004
Over the course of history, Jews have been prevented from praying and practicing their religion. Now that we have our own state, how can we allow this to happen here?
I have said it before and I will say it again – rocks kill. A friend of my wife had her skull bashed in by a rock thrown her way by a terrorist. She survived, but barely. Anyone who has ever visited the Western Wall will have an idea of the damage a rock could do to your skull if it lands on you from above.
If people are throwing rocks at you, you have to treat them like anyone trying to kill you. Fire a warning shot first and if they continue, you act to prevent them from killing. If they are caught, they should be charged with attempted murder (or murder if anyone is killed), and sentenced accordingly.
