This morning, my mate and fellow anglo-Israeli blogger, Harry, got stoned on Road 443, the Jerusalem-Modi’in highway. We are all very relieved that he’s ok. Baruch Hashem.
Harry was extremely lucky. A stone thrown at a moving car can cause serious damage. My wife’s friend Danielle was hit in the head by one. She almost died, but, thank G-d, survived.
What Harry does not state in his account of the attack was that this is not his first brush with stone throwing terrorists. It happened to him over a year ago.
As far as I am concerned, these stone throwers are terrorists, and not just “stupid kids” like one blogger would like us all to believe. Stones can kill, and these kids wanted to kill their intended victims, including Harry. Also, it would be nice to express your relief that Harry is ok before you launch into your political rhetoric.
Harry believes that his “years of political moderation might be over.” Good for him. I am also really impressed with Harry’s ability to recollect the music that was playing at the time of the incident (he did the same thing last time he got stoned by PLO Arabs, and on that occasion the song was “Divine Intervention”). You can’t stop the music..
