Over the last two weeks the Israeli government and media had been doing their best to cover the news of the Jewish families living in Hevron.

Today a Palestinian bomber once again blew himself up in a crowd. Islamic Jihad today demonstrated a terror act by dispatching a suicide bomber to a Tel Aviv sandwich shop. Almost two dozen wounded according to early reports.
