[Jared Moya]

At least five people were shot, one of them fatally, at the Jewish Federation of Greater Seattle, and one person was arrested, authorities said. A witness told a local newspaper that the man said he was a Muslim who was angry at Israel.

Five or six people were wounded in the incident Friday afternoon, assistant police chief Jim Pugel said.

One person died, fire department spokeswoman Helen Fitzpatrick said.

Amy Wasser-Simpson, vice president for planning and community services at the Jewish Federation told The Seattle Times that a man got through security at the building and told staff members: "I'm Muslim American. I'm angry at Israel," then began shooting.

One wounded woman was shot in the abdomen and another woman was hit in the arm, according to news accounts. Information on the others wounded was not immediately available.

One woman killed, and 4 women wounded. Hows that playing out on Al Jazeera I wonder? Another great victory for the warriors of Islam.

Incidents like this one are exactly the reason why Israel and Jews in general dont take shit from anyone.

All Israel wants is to have a secure border and live in peace with it's neighbors. But the militants in islamic countries like Syria are the ones who are calling for Israel to be wiped off the map! I really don't know who is worse to the jews...Hitler or the militant factions that carry out terrorisim.

Why can't they let Israel live? Sad situation.

And this idiot that carried out attacks against these women who have done nothing to harm him is just a coward in my opinion.

I've said this before, and I'm gonna say it again:

DON'T FUCK WITH ISRAEL!!

People obviously haven't realized that yet, and until they do, they're gonna get their

asses wooped. As far as that attack on the Jewish people in America, that Muslim can go

f**k himself.

Nobody wants peace over there. To many people making and turning a profit. The people who run firearms to all the countries, make weaponry, the people who want to rise up against their own government and keep starting war and causing hurt to other countries. You take someone out, a new person rises and do the same crap. Its a viscous cycle.

I can't agree with the anti-rebellion part. That is only a natural human act. If there is a rebellion, then

the government's doing something wrong, not the people. People rebel for rights and freedom, not for

dictatorship. But, I agree, that does not make all this fighting alright.

Uhr... people will rebel in the name of rights and freedom, and in doing so install a dictatorship... just ask Cuba.
