RIP to that poor woman. My thoughts are with her family.

I hate that this further induces the dangerous reputation the country has–as a result of obvious reasons–however, I would love to travel there, but I hate the fact that my parents always respond with such disdain because of its stigma.

It's no coincidence that it's always young vulnerable women that get attacked. These men are cowards through and through.

More than 20% of Israeli citizens are Arab/Palestinian by nationality. They live and work in Israel living alongside their Jewish neighbours quite peacefully. The problem is, it's impossible to tell which ones are the peaceful Palestinians and which ones think it's okay to stab people, blow up a bus, shoot at a school etc. We're only hearing about this because a British person was the victim. This kind of thing happens all the time in Israel.
