Here is ANOTHER example of the risk we are put at because of supporting Israel. Luckily the attack failed because the bombs failed to explode. Notice that the media doesn't make it clear what the motive is. They mention things that if you already understood the background, you could get his motive but they don't make it clear:

"NEW YORK - In 1973, a young terrorist named Khalid Duhham Al-Jawary entered the United States and quickly began plotting an audacious attack in New York City.
He built three powerful bombs — bombs powerful enough to kill, maim and destroy — and put them in rental cars scattered around town,
near Israeli targets.The plot failed. The explosive devices did not detonate, and Al-Jawary fled the country, escaping prosecution for nearly two decades ...
Bomb plot foiled
On Jan. 12, 1973, Al-Jawary flew to Boston via Montreal and then to New York City. He began scouting targets for a terrorist attack.
He picked
two Israeli banks on Fifth Avenue and the El-Al cargo terminal at Kennedy Airport.Possibly working with two or more people, Al-Jawary rented three cars and assembled three bombs comprised of large containers filled with gasoline, propane tanks, plastic explosives, blasting caps and batteries, according to FBI and federal court records.
Two of the bombs used alarm clocks, but a third employed a sophisticated electronic-timing device commonly referred to as an "e-cell," ... It was twice as powerful as the other two bombs.
On March 4, Al-Jawary — and possibly others — readied the cars
in anticipation of Israeli Prime Minister Golda Meir's visit to the city.Each car contained a Hebrew language newspaper with propaganda [WHAT DID IT SAY? WHY DON'T THEY TELL THEIR READERS?] from
Black September — the terrorist organization that carried out the massacre of
Israeli athletes at the Munich Olympics just months earlier —
tucked inside.But the bombs failed to explode. They were discovered after the two cars on Fifth Avenue were towed, and the FBI learned about the third car at JFK and notified police. ..."
