ABLUS (Ma'an) -- An Israeli bus driver ran over two Palestinians at the al-Jalama checkpoint in Jenin, killing one person and injuring another, Palestinian security sources said Tuesday.

Palestinian security sources told Ma'an that Noor Hassan Naim Salim, 22, and Alaa Kayid Salim, 20, from Nablus were injured after being ran over by an Israeli bus.

Hussein was taken to an Israeli hospital with serious injuries and later died. Salim was taken to Jenin governmental hospital with light injuries.

I'm surprised. The bus driver was only arrested for running over the Palestinians. Palestinians apparently are gunned down for such actions.

Will the bus driver's house be destroyed for acting like a terrorist, or are there two sets of rules for Israeli and Palestinians?

1. Can you tell me what you know about the bus driver?

His name, for instance?

4. The driver was an Israeli Arab.

Note in the translation it was an Egged Israeli Bus led by a Palestinian driver.

==================

Bigots wanting to incite hate and violence are claiming this was a busload of Jewish settler colonists.

8. Colonists run over and kill Palestinian

Ramallah: A speeding Israeli bus loaded with colonists ran over a group of Palestinians, killing one and hurting two others near the Israeli checkpoint of Al Jalamah between Nablus and Jenin.

The Israeli bus crossed the checkpoint without stopping just as a group of Palestinian workers inside Israel stepped out having gone through their inspection process.

The speeding bus ran over Noor Hassan Salem, 22, his cousin Alaa Kayed Salem and a third villager from a village near Nablus.

That kind of thing.

2. what was the protocol? "we don't want him to see a judge"?

[Dick Dastardly]

3. Other media said it was unknown whether it was intentional or an accident unlike the always slanted

news coverage from Maan.

It was unclear if the incident was an intentional attack or an accident.

5. The driver was an Israeli Arab. So now what? n/t

[R. Daneel Olivaw]

6. My question still stands.

[shira]

7. How do u know it was intentional? n/t

[R. Daneel Olivaw]

9. How do you know it wasn't? My question still stands.

[shira]

10. Media like Al-Jazeera question whether it was intentional. n/t

[King_David]

12. Of course your question still stands,

[R. Daneel Olivaw]

13. Yes.

[King_David]

11. Of course it does ,

[Shaktimaan]

17. Didn't you already answer it?

I'm surprised. The bus driver was only arrested for running over the Palestinians. Palestinians apparently are gunned down for such actions.

But the driver in this case actually was palestinian. Why do you suppose he wasn't shot by the police?

[oberliner]

14. Keep posted on this

Curious to see if anything changes in the coverage once it is widely reported that the driver was a Palestinian citizen of Israel.

[shira]

15. Anti-Israel haters don't care if driver is a Palestinian citizen of Israel

They'll use this story only if it can be twisted into an "Israeli" hitting a Palestinian.

The inference being that a Jew did it. That's a big story for those wanting to incite.

Some Arab media outlets are expert at doing this, reporting that a busload of settler colonists ran over Palestinians. This is the kind of news that thrills Jew-hating shitbags.

16. Palestinians say that the driver was wearing a kippah

وقال عبد السلام نعيم سالم عم الشهيد ، ظهر اليوم الأربعاء (26-11): "إن الاحتلال تأخر عن الوصول لإسعاف الشهيد، لما يزيد عن ثلاثة أرباع الساعة، رغم أن الحادث وقع على بعد عشرات الأمتار من حاجز برطعة العسكري"، ونفى عم الشهيد أن يكون سائق الحافلة عربيًّا بحسب الادعاء الاسرائيلي، مؤكدًا أن السائق كان يعتمر قلنسوة المستوطنين الاسرائيلية، وقد خلعها عقب تنفيذ جريمته وحاول الفرار
