Pictures from Israel (These pictures load faster now!)

Prof. Zvi Gimmon, M.D. of the Hadassah Hospital in Jerusalem, presented pictures from daily life in Jerusalem today.

This is an x-ray taken after one of the recent suicide bombings on a Saturday night in Jerusalem. The patient lungs were invaded by 5 bolts.


You can see the three EKG leads (solid white), but in addition there are 5 (!) bolts
that were part of the suicide bomber's weapon. There is no other purpose of these bolts than to inflict as
much human damage as possible.

Nuts, bolts, and shrapnel invaded the entire left leg of this patient.

Another patient with shrapnel, nuts, bolts, screws from a suicide bomber's explosives.

This is one of the bolts removed from a patient. the ruler next to the bolt shows the size: It was almost an inch wide.
Note. These were inserted into the explosives by hand for extra effect.

This is a residentce in Jerusalem. Note the porch on the top floor: It's bullet proof glass. The people on the floor below didn't believe in bullet proof windows; so they did it the old fashioned way: Sand bags.
