Pregnant Palestinian woman at Israeli checkpoint

[Acesn8's]

This is a woman who about a year earlier was treated for massive burn over her body from a cooking gas tank explosion. She is stopped at the border when she wants to return to the same hospital in Israel due to pregnancy.

Due to suspicion and security integrity, she is asked to undress at the border terminal.

And the world asks: "why do the Israelis need checkpoints, and a border fence?" watch the video, and "get" the answer.

The video is only 3 minutes

wow.....going back to the ones who opened their doors to her.....sad.

The only thing surprising is how many people in the USA and Europe refuse to believe what's happening.

I will always support the Israelis...period.

Same here , those folks go through that kind crap every day.

 

[DaRedneck]

No doubt. I'll always support them too. Imagine living in a little bitty tiny nation surrounded by much larger nations whose number one goal in life is to see the destruction of your nation and its people.

so is this a fail for the chick, or a win for Isreal? Isreal should make their of Failblog of failed or foiled terrorist attacks and post them up!

It's a win for Israel, and a testament to what kind of fanatical terrorists they're up against. If that had been America, the woman would have been allowed to pass, or best case scenario is she'd have been given a chickenshit, back-of-the-hand, politically correct patdown that would have found nothing and the female bomber would have arrived at her target safe and sound and detonated her bomb. More power to the Israelis, they're badass!

Both. It even took her two tries (at least) to detonate herself.

Now they don't have to worry about defusing the device and they can just hose down the area w/ a water cannon for cleanup. Call it a training exercise.

That whole region is fucked up. But Israel isn't the monster so many try to claim it is...

I'm too familiar with Pallywood (Google that word) to believe much that comes out of Palestine.

One of my tee shirts from Israel has an F-16 on the front and the words, "Don't worry America, Israel is behind you!"



They're great people, pure and simple.

The Palestinians should thank their god that Israel's collective memory doesn't make a "final solution" to the Palestinian problem attractive to them.....just about any other country would....
