Bad-ass supreme.....
Moshe Plesser, the off-duty soldier who shot and killed the terrorist on Wednesday, was riding his bike down Jaffa Road when he spotted the overturned bus and a massive bulldozer tearing through the streets of Jerusalem.
Understanding that the Arab driver behind the wheel was in the midst of a terror rampage, Plesser, on a furlough from the Golani Brigade's elite Egoz unit, threw his bike to the side of the road and began chasing after the bulldozer.
Speaking with reporters several hours after the attack, Plesser recalled the sequence of events that led to his courageous action on Wednesday. He is the brother-in-law of Capt. David Shapira, the IDF officer who stormed the Mercaz Harav Yeshiva in March and killed the Arab terrorist who had massacred eight students in the religious seminary.
As he began running towards the bulldozer, Plesser said that he shouted out to onlookers for a gun. Together with another civilian, Plesser climbed aboard the bulldozer and began wrestling with the driver.
"At one point he [the driver] yelled out "Allah Akhbar" [God is great] and stepped on the gas pedal," Plesser recalled. "I drew the weapon of the civilian who was with me and shot the driver three times in the head. I think I did what is expected from every soldier and citizen."
Seconds later, a police officer, Eli Mizrahi, climbed aboard the bulldozer and shot the terrorist again, killing him.

Now the guy will be called a murderous Nazi and worse for killing that loser. He should have taken the Olmert way-look the other way and maybe the punk would have simply disappeared.

"In related news, the imam of Al Aqsa Mosque reported to his celebratory congregation that the unidentified shaheed, a martyr and true Lion of Islam, was met personally at the Gates of Paradise by the Infidel Virgin, the esteemed St. Pancake, Rachel Corrie, aka patron saint of the Catepillar Corporation."

This was the act of a good man.
He saw an evil man taking innocent life, and he put a stop to it with three in the head.
Bravo.

Judging by the size of the hole in the terrorist's head after getting 3 from Plesser, I think he was already dead by the time that cop gives him "one more, to be sure" with the rifle.

So what is your point, scooter, other than you might have a bigger hole in your head than the terrorist.
