Commentary:<\/p>\n

A massive attempted car bombing attack was averted at Haifa’s Lev Hamifratz mall when one of several explosive devices hidden in a parked auto failed and thanks to an alert mall employee who reported hearing an explosion at about 8:30 p.m. on Saturday night.<\/p>\n

Here is a clear case of Hashem’s will to prevent massive loss of Jewish life, although there are those who will attribute the failed event to merely, Derech HaTeva, the mal-function of an explosive device.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Jerusalem Post reports on the<\/strong> car bombing attempt:<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Police sappers… dispatched to scan the area…. found a partially exploded bomb in the trunk of a white Subaru car which was parked outside the shopping center.<\/p>\n

A further search of the vehicle uncovered several more unexploded bombs, which were neutralized by the sappers. No one was injured.<\/p>\n

It was not immediately clear how the vehicle managed to get past the security checks at the mall entrance. The car was registered to a woman who lives in Jerusalem, but police would not release her identity. Northern District head Cmdr. Shimon Koren told Army Radio on Sunday morning that the vehicle had been stolen.<\/p>\n

Police immediately moved to evacuate the mall, which was filled with shoppers, and sealed off the area.<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The name of the vehicle owner was not revealed although <\/strong> Israel National News reports:<\/a><\/p>\n

  • \nThe car in which the explosives were found was registered to a woman who lives in eastern Jerusalem, police said. <\/em><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Northern District Commander Shimon Koren said that “the background of the incident is almost certainly hostile terrorism. We see no signs of anything else.”<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

    The Jerusalem Post report continues: <\/strong><\/p>\n

    Northern Police spokesman Moshe Weitzman told… that “dozens of kilograms of explosives” were uncovered in the car.<\/p>\n

    The ‘Free Galilee’ terror group has claimed responsibility for an attempted car bombing attack…<\/p>\n

    The mall and the surrounding area were reopened on Sunday morning. <\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

    When will the governance of Israel get the Divine message of a massive tragedy overted and move from spineless to a government of backbone and principle? Or will it take Heaven forbid, massive casualties to send a message both to the government and to the Israeli masses? MB <\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
