Teen Otniel killer influenced by TV show, Shin Bet says

When young Palestinians try to murder Jews daily, is there any plausible way to pretend they aren't being incited?

Before stabbing Dafna Meir to death, Morad Bader Abdullah Adais, 15, watched Palestinian TV protraying Israel as killing young Arabs, security agency says, drawing direct link.

The Palestinian teenager accused of stabbing Israeli mother-of-six Dafna Meir to death last week was influenced by Palestinian TV, the Shin Bet security agency said Sunday. The linkage between the fatal attack and the Palestinian broadcast was the latest in a string of accusations from Jerusalem that an almost 5-month-long wave of terrorism and violence is being driven by Palestinian incitement on social media and via official channels.
