8. There's an attempt to place them during Ramadan.

Jihadists like the hadith (or part of the Qur'aan) that calls it the time or month of jihad. I suspect that the lack of consistency in mapping such incidents to a calendar is largely due to the use of the incorrect calendar.

Ramadan started a few days ago. Palestinian violence immediately increased. It may be a fluke, given that it's only been a few days. It might not. Look at the long term.
