That’s right, my loyal readers, summer is just about here! How are you going to keep your kids busy when the weather gets hot? We all know about the Hamas summer camps where kids learn fun things like how to shoot guns and explode things. (By the way, what else do they do at camp? Terrorist gaga? Terrorist talent show? Terrorist cheers?
“We’ve got jihad, yes we do, we’ve got jihad, how bout you?
WE’VE GOT THE MOST! WE’VE GOT THE MOST!”
Well, it looks like the Jews have jumped on the bandwagon with incitement of our own. Here’s a plaque from the old train station just off Derech Hevron in Jerusalem. While it appears to commemmorate some historical event, it also appears to be giving us some very disturbing instruction.
I just can’t figure out why we’re supposed to target our own building.Is this some kind of military reverse psychology?
If anyone follows through with this, I’ll be sure to take pictures. I just love a good explosion.
If I had been drinking just now, it would have come out through my nose.
it sounds like a jihadist version of the “stations of the cross” (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stations_of_the_Cross)
1. pack up the C4
2. kiss you wife good bye
…
…
11. blow up the railway station
12. you’ve made it! paradise!
What’s it going to take to get you to stop by the Center? You were literally right outside! Jeez! There are plenty of things to poke fun at right here!
*end rant*
In fact, the Jews were the ones doing the blowing up at the time, so maybe…
Amalia, it’s comments like that that make me keep blogging, even while missiles are falling outside my building.
Ilana, I was in a stopped car on the way to the Crossroads magic show in Beit Shemesh. But this reminds me, I should probably write sometime on the misuse of the word “literally”. Like when commentators say “Michael Jordan is literally on fire!” GET THAT GUY SOME WATER!
Maybe it’s a new song…I’ll listen for it on gargle lots.
First we had a midnight train to Georgia…
Rod Stewart gave us a downtown train…
Soul Asylum gave us a runaway train…
then came – come on ride the train…yeah, ride it (choo-choo!)
now – the smashing new hit, exploding all over the middle east – Blow up the Train Station! (the kids love it)
Aww, man, you scooped me – a friend of mine told me about this sign just a few days ago, and I was hoping to get it…
It is, indeed, an excellent sign!
If the grammar police stopped by the Center, I would literally be in shock.
I sent this picture to my Mom, and here is her reply:
“I wrote the Mayor today requesting that he order an immediate investigation into this embarrassing revelation.”
Huh? Like she wrote Nir Barkat telling him that the sign is ridiculous? Hopefully I’ll get a meeting with him.
“What War Zone???: The Official Blog of the City of Jerusalem”
OMG. Is this for real???? I can’t believe this! And yes, this sign must be changed. Crazy!
Is it possible they meant to put it in quotation marks? You know, like a title based on a quote from a some communication? Is there any indication in the fine print?
I just really hate to think that someone was that stupid.
same grammatical error on a sign on jaffa corner of cheshin (below the russian compound), you could start a photo series, perhaps a deck of cards “Jerusalem: it’s full of bad signs”

Thanks for hosting a great edition, and thanks for the links!!!
Haveil Havalim #218 Is Up!
There are others. See here.
They need a better translator. Preferably a native speaker of English.
