Over the past few years Israelis have been less diligent in reporting suspicious objects became the main concern of both the police and the citizenry has focused on suicide bombers. They gain all the benefits without any of the costs. They instill fear in the hearts of Israelis - and the victims of terror are not displayed in the international media. The opposite effect happened with the bus bombs, when even the most open minded observer could not feel for the cause of a terrorist who blows up tens of innocent Jews. Acts of terror cannot and should not be ignored only because the few rather than the many are injured.
Terror is terror.
