Terror in Israel: Buses Explode—but It Could Have Been Much, Much Worse If Not for Bombers' Mistake

On the same day sick Hamas terrorists celebrated as they turned over the coffins of slain hostages, including the Bibas babies, to Israel, multiple buses exploded in Tel Aviv as a result of a presumed terror attack.

Fortunately—for reasons we’ll get to in a moment—the buses were empty and no one was killed.

Not only did three buses explode, but bombs had been placed on others as well:

Two empty buses exploded simultaneously in different parking lots in Bat Yam, near Tel Aviv, before a third one went up in flames, according to Israeli media reports. 

Additional bombs were also planted on two other buses in Bat Yam and Holon but failed to explode. They have since been disabled, police said.

Hamas' Tulkarm battalion has hinted that they were behind the explosions, according to a report.

As disturbing as the attack was, it could have been much, much worse if the intellectually challenged terrorists hadn’t set the detonators to the wrong time:

Police are investigating the explosion adding 'large forces are at the scenes, searching for suspects'.

A defence official has stated incendiary devices were accidentally set for 9pm instead of 9am.

Local forces confirmed three bombs exploded while two were being defused at separate locations with fears 'hundreds could have died' had the devices set off as intended.

A spokesman said: 'These are identical explosive devices with a timer. Three have detonated, and two additional ones have been located and are currently being neutralised.'

While protesters in America and abroad continue to march against Israel, they seem to ignore the almost constant reminders that Hamas is composed of savages who have no regard for human life or dignity. Luckily, whoever was behind this attack appears to have botched it, but they came oh-so-close to wreaking unspeakable carnage. It’s hard to imagine there will ever be peace while they still walk the earth.
