Elderly terror victims: Arabs refused to help us as we bled

[shira]

...Police continue to search for the two masked terrorists, who stabbed the two women as they walked on Armon Hanatziv's Haas Promenade overlooking the Old City together with Fuchs and two other elderly women. The victims were classified as being in moderate but stable condition. Fuchs revealed that Arab laborers at the scene of the attack refused to help the Jewish victims, even as they bled from their stab wounds.

The five elderly women had set out from the senior residence where they all live for a walk on the promenade, as is their custom. Suddenly the two terrorists pounced on them, stabbing the two victims repeatedly before fleeing the scene. Fuchs recalled how one of the five elderly women shouted to her friends: "girls, run, run!" "We looked back and she was sitting on the ground bleeding from her chest," she described. Another of her friends was also wounded in the attack.

She said she and her friends asked Arab workers who were nearby to help, but they ignored their requests. "We walked and next to the bathrooms stood Arabs who were cleaning there. We asked them to call an ambulance. They wouldn't agree to do so, and acted as if they were talking on the phone."

Two Arab residents from the adjacent neighborhood of Jabel Mukaber were arrested shortly afterwards on Tuesday, but they were later released after it was clarified they were not connected to the attack. The terrorists remain at large. The refusal to help wounded Jewish terror victims brings to mind the lethal stabbing in Jerusalem's Old City last October, in which Arab doctors apparently refused to treat a young seriously wounded mother and her infant son after her husband and another man was murdered.

1. Letter: Prosecute Arab workers who ignored terror victims

The Lavi civil rights organization penned a strong letter to Jerusalem Mayor Nir Barkat Wednesday, demanding that he find and prosecute Arab workers who refused to help elderly terror victims who lay bleeding in the street in the capital on Tuesday. "Today, a number of elderly women from a nursing home strolled along the Armon Hanetziv Promenade," the letter began. "During the walk, two women were attacked by terrorists who stabbed them in different parts of their bodies."

"These women were seriously injured, and fell in the street bleeding and crying out for help, while they and their friends asked bystanders to call an ambulance," it continued. "Unfortunately, the housekeeping staff who were present ignored the injured elderly and their friends."

"It stands to reason that these are workers employed by the Jerusalem Municipality, ergo we turn to you, Mayor, for help." The letter argues that the workers violated the Good Samaritan Law of 1998 demanding that bystanders approached for help, do so - and also noted the moral issues with overlooking the incident.

"We ask you, therefore, to order the investigation and prosecution of laborers who refused to help old women who were attacked, and take every measure to express in public disgust at seeing this behavior in Jerusalem."

3. They could fire them first

What they did is not right at all.

6. Firing them would make them into immediate victims...

I'd bet the house on it.

4. but it is Israel's fault

and the true victims here are the bystanders who were laughing and spitting at this woman who had been stabbed and whose husband had just been murdered. I guess the murderers are also victims, e.g., according to Unicef.

5. Well, you can't blame them for laughing and spitting - right?

Just a natural reaction we see everywhere in the world to women with their children bludgeoned or hacked up by psychotics.
