(58,724 posts)A Palestinian woman armed with a knife and her younger brother were shot dead by Israeli security forces at the Qalandiyah checkpoint in the West Bank on Wednesday morning, Jerusalem Police said, prompting clashes in the area.
Before being shot, the two were ordered to stop several times but continued to approach officers and guards stationed at a drive-through checkpoint not intended for pedestrians.
According to the police, as the two approached, the woman's hand was buried inside her bag and his hand was behind his back. The two eventually heeded the police's call, stopping a short distance from the officers and turning away, but the woman then spun back around and pulled out the knife, throwing it directly at one of the officers. Police and security guards then shot the two.
The police found another knife identical to the one she was carrying, while a switchblade was found on the her brother's body.

...but the woman then spun back around and pulled out the knife, throwing it directly at one of the officers. Police and security guards then shot the two....
She was 5 months pregnant. Don't you think a person in that condition would find it difficult to do this with any ferocity? Besides she was shot 15 times.
Here is a photo of the scene. Do you see a knife anywhere? If she was trying to attack someone don't you think it would be found close relative to her? I don't see a knife in this photo.
