The article contains almost no information about the political drama which shook Israel for over two years after the incident. There was a power struggle between the executive branch and the judicial system over whether the Shabak members involved were to face trial. This struggle had a lasting effect on the independence of the Attorney General from the Cabinet. If anyone knows more about this it would make a really important addition. -- Zvika ( talk) 06:25, 4 November 2009 (UTC)

ISRAEL IN DOCK OVER BUS TERRORIST. From David Shipler, New York Times, Bani Suheila, Gaza.
Evidence is accumulating that one of the Arabs who hijacked an Israeli bus last week may have been captured alive and killed later. His mother, uncle, cousin and neighbours identified him on Wednesday as the man photographed by the Israeli newspaper Hadashot as he was being led handcuffed from the bus by two security agents. The picture was shown on Tuesday to people in the village of Bani Suheila by a journalist from the newspaper. The Israeli military censor has barred publication of the picture. The photograph is of excellent quality, and many residents said they recognized the man as Majdi Abu Jumaa. A neighbour gave the paper a photograph of the young man taken a year ago, and the resemblance is unmistakable. Several days ago he was named by the Israeli Army spokesman as one of four Arabs who took part in the hijacking. The spokesman insisted that all four were killed in the assault. When news of the photograph came to light several days ago, the spokesman speculated that the man being led away, alive and apparently unharmed, was a passenger, possibly one under suspicion for collaboration in the hijacking. The spokesman stuck to this position on Wednesday, denying the assertions that the hijacker was killed after capture. He added that autopsies were done on all four bodies.
On Friday 27 April 1984, The Times (London), published a report "Israel reprimands US journalist" by Christopher Walker: On Tuesday, Mr Shipler, a senior member of the large foreign press corps, was summonded by Mr Mordechai Dolinsky, director of the Government press office. A subsequent communique said: "Mr Shipler was officially informed that he has been in violation of military censorship, and the rules of censorship were reviewed with him. The consequences of the violation of these rules were spelt out for him in the strongest possible terms." Although certain senior Government figures are understood to have pressed for the revocation of Mr Shipler's Israeli press credentials, official sources said yesterday that there was no intention to take further action against him. Mr Shipler, a former Moscow correspondent, is to leave Israel soon to head his paper's Washington bureau. Padres Hana ( talk) 20:42, 1 April 2010 (UTC)
Is it just me, or is practically everything referenced to or about Ehud Yatom a BLP violation? Particularly since the one source it uses doesn't load? No More Mr Nice Guy ( talk) 12:04, 16 April 2010 (UTC)
Does anyone happen to have the actual Christopher Walker article most of this article is based on? Got link? No More Mr Nice Guy ( talk) 22:23, 27 April 2010 (UTC)

Very little has ever been written about the survivors of this attack. My wife, Karen Ben-Ya'acov was a passenger on the bus travelling home to Ashkelon on her way back home from work in Tel-Aviv. We were newly-wed, I was still serving in the army and she was pregnant with our daughter. She was slightly injured and after the rescue was taken straight to hospital. Thankfully both she and my daughter (now 26) survived, though Karen was severely traumatised, never went back on a bus and ultimately left Israel. Whilst condoning the actions of the Israeli forces is inappropriate, I am forever grateful that they intervened and saved the lives of all the passengers except for the poor female Israeli soldier who was shot through the head by one of the soldiers when she stood up rather than duck down as instructed. No passengers were interviewed or their experiences taken into account during that very long night held captive by armed men who would have in my opinion just as easily opened fire on the passengers as other terrorists have in the past.

I think what is bothering me is the over-use of the word "militant" where "teenager" would be equally applicable. Padres Hana ( talk) 11:37, 13 November 2011 (UTC)

This is first time I have put one of these up. The use of "terrorist" is overdone, "hyjackers" is more accurate... or "hostage-takers". Anyway re-reading this article after a long time I've reacted badly - look at the picture of Abu Jumma (and his captors!). Padres Hana ( talk) 21:15, 21 November 2012 (UTC)
