A Palestinian suicide bomber carried out the deadliest attack on Israel in almost two years on Monday when he detonated his explosives at a falafel restaurant in Tel Aviv - an act that Hamas, which leads the new Palestinian government, called legitimate.
That same falafel place actually was bombed TWICE!
Up until this thread, I imagined it was more random violence, but obviously not.
