Stabbings attacks against Jews continue in and around Israel:
A series of stabbing attacks have resulted in the deaths of three alleged Palestinian attackers and resulted in several more Israelis and Palestinians being injured as violence intensifies in Israel and the occupied Palestinian territories.
Writing on Twitter, Israeli police spokesman Micky Rosenfeld said that four apparent stabbing incidents took place in Jerusalem on Monday.
The spokesman said a Palestinian assailant was shot dead on Monday night after stabbing an Israeli soldier on a bus entering Jerusalem. The soldier was lightly injured.
Here’s how Slate reported it:
There have been at least 17 random stabbing attacks in Israel since last Wednesday: http://t.co/lNRjRPYVAi pic.twitter.com/7n7W26ejCt

So Slate really went with “random,” eh?
Hi @BenMathisLilley, did you see that @Slate editors put "random" in your headline and dropped it into your lede? https://t.co/2jKblim7uo

Word to the wise: 17 stabbings in less than a week means that what's happening ISN'T random. Idiots. https://t.co/iGPVeHSLC9

I wonder if the wave of “random” stabbing attacks on Jews in Israel has anything to do with this kind of thing? http://t.co/UozC2uT6yw
