Yes, it appears that the Times published their story before Mondoweiss, but besides having a similar headlines you insinuations fall on their face once again.

The Times: ‘The third intifada is here,’ Jerusalem terrorist wrote day before attack

Mondoweiss: ‘Third intifada was launched,’ Palestinian law student posted before fatal attack in Jerusalem

As one can see that both the Times and Mondoweiss have used the attacker's words in parens, but after that your weak sauce argument couldn't even spice up a bowl of flaming jalapeños.

"The times broke the story first!', ober cries, "It's a lift!"

No, ober a lift would be where an article has similarities, beyond the basic story line of 'man bites dog.'

In fact, Mondoweiss goes a little more in-depth than the times so I'll leave that to the passing DUer to read.

Once again you have proved yourself to be a tireless hero of journalistic integrity in order to shut down discussion, IMHO, and to raise doubts where none really exist, except perhaps in your own fevered imaginations.

Don't forget to pick up your anemic excuses on your way out.
