Murder in Tel Aviv . . . Near Murder in Binyamin/Yehuda

This brave security guard saved many lives by blocking them with his body and deserves all the “conforting” words in these articles. 

After saving many lives: Security guard murdered in (Arab Terrorist) Tel Aviv shooting attack

Hen Amir was murdered Saturday afternoon in a terror attack in Tel Aviv. He is survived by his wife and three daughters.

Chen Amir, a 42-year-old municipal security guard was murdered on Saturday afternoon in a shooting attack on Montefiore Street in Tel Aviv. Amir is survived by his wife Vered and three daughters. His family has agreed to donate his organs in order so save additional lives.

The incident took place after two security guards at the scene turned to the terrorist, who had aroused their suspicions. In response, the terrorist drew his weapon and began firing at the head of one of the security guards. The second security guard neutralized the terrorist, who later died in the hospital. The terrorist has been identified as a resident of Jenin, who was found to be carrying a letter announcing his intention to become a "martyr.”

Shabak (Shin Bet) has identified the terrorist as Kamel Abu Bakr, 22, a resident of Rummanah, who had been hiding in Jenin for the past six months. Abu Bakr was known to be affiliated with the Islamic Jihad terror group, and did not hold an entry permit into Israel due to his terrorist affiliation.

Tel Aviv shooting attack: Chen blocked the terrorist with his body

Head of unit which employed Chen Amir, who was murdered in a terrorist attack yesterday, describes effect of loss on friends and family.

Hanan Peretz, the head of the inspector's unit of the Tel Aviv municipality, spoke this morning about the murder of Chen Amir, a 42-year-old municipal security guard, in a terrorist shooting attack yesterday.

"This is a very difficult incident that we are dealing with, both in the unit and in the family," Peretz told 103 FM Radio. "His friends used to call him 'King Chen Amir.' He was just a pleasant person, amazing, always smiling, always ready with a hug and love."

He added, "His friends in the unit still don't know how to digest the news. They are very hurt and grieving, and Amir, whose love for motorcycles was truly extraordinary, also happened to be a motorcycle mechanic, and he really liked the job, the unit, and even before recently. This is an unbearable loss."

"He really blocked the terrorist with his body," he said, describing how the two security guards noticed and ultimately stopped the terrorist. "Chen was first, followed by Oz, who would ultimately neutralize the terrorist. He came right up with his motorcycle to block [the terrorist's] path towards Allenby and he didn't have time to get off before he was shot. Then Oz, who kept his composure, strove for contact and ended the incident.”

[…] "This is not an easy incident to deal with. This is a father of three little girls who we hope will be able to get through it. We are with them, we embrace them, we will support them. It is difficult for us, it is difficult for his friends. With the action he took, I am happy that we prevented a very serious attack, on the one hand. On the other hand, it came at a very heavy price for us, for the family," he added.

ONLY AS A COMPARISON BETWEEN “US” AND “THEM”:

When a Shepherd looking after his flock in Binyamin/Yehuda came under attack from an Arab Terrorist intruder, does the one terribly wounded by a min-boulder thrown at his head, while wounded, pull his authorized for protection firearm and shoot the Terrorist, saving the lives of his friends from further attack, GETS ARRESTED along with his friends, AND NOT “COMFORTED” IN THE TEXT OF THE REPORTING ARTICLE!!
