Woke up Sunday morning and didn't hear a word about a terrorist attack in Jerusalem last night. I don't believe Israel should be the focus of our news, but the fact that the leader of the "moderate" *Palestinian Authority, Abbas, on Facebook praised and incited a terrorist who shot a pregnant women and Americans, should  be newsworthy. See Fatah praises shooting of pregnant woman and 7 others: “Praise to the one whose rifle only speaks against his enemy!” from PMW. By Monday, there were reports about the shooting, but still no mention of Fatah's praise.
