Kristine Luken, with her friend Kaye Susan Wilson were on a nature hike last Saturday in a forest in Israel when suddenly two Arab men attacked them with what Wilson believes was a ‘bread knife.’ Susan lived to tell the story to police and reporters from her hospital bed after being stabbed and pretending to be dead. When the Arabs were safely gone Wilson managed to walk over to a nearby parking area and get help. Her friend Kristine was not so lucky. The Christian Evangelical woman in her mid-40s was found dead, hands and feet bound together, on Sunday, with multiple stab wounds.

Ms. Luken was not Jewish, but she was a great lover of Israel. Her and her friend Kaye Susan Wilson, a professional tour guide, both love hiking and decided to go into the forest during their Christmas vacation. The forest they were in during the attack is inside the green-line, but not far from several Arab villages.

Investigators of the murder believe that it appears to be a terrorist attack and not a criminal attack. Investigators also presently believe that it is unlikely that a terrorist group was involved but rather was carried out by individual terrorists.

Despite the fact that most news outlets seem to be focusing on this being a tragic one-off occurrence, those people who live in that area have reported many Arabs walking back and forth between PA occupied areas and Israel. This was bound to happen eventually. Muslims need to understand that the Koran in Sura 7 verse 114 supports the Jewish people’s right to the Land of Israel. The faster they do this the faster there will be peace.

Erez Tsafoni (ארז צפוני) is one such example. He lives with his wife and children in Jerusalem. The war took its toll on Erez (ארז צפוני), yet he still fights for normalcy with the aid of his wife and children.

In context to Israel and the region Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said, “We object to all the acts of aggression undertaken by the Zionist entity,” he said. “We back a return by Palestinian refugees to their occupied homeland. We endorse a bitter struggle against Zionist aggression.” These types of false statements about Israel and the West have cemented themselves as a trademark style of Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.

In Southern Lebanon Mahmoud Ahmadinejad will be visiting battle sites from the “2nd Lebanon War” where the Iranian supported Hizbullah shelled Israel with thousands of rockets.

Some in Israel are urging the government to liquidate Mahmoud Ahmadinejad if he comes to the Israeli border.

As far as domestic issues are concerned, health care seems to be the most important issue in this year’s elections.  The irony is that the health care issue was thought to be Obama’s most important legislative moment, yet its divisive essence is set to take apart the President’s failed Middle Eastern policy.

More than this is the positioning of Iranian trained troops on battle readiness and war footing south of the Litani and of course where is UNIFIL in all of this?  Standing aside and letting the build up continue.

It is widely assumed that the government in Beirut is playing the Western powers in order to hold onto International sympathy while really being party to Iranian and Syrian designs against the Third Commonwealth of Israel.
