Stop And Think...
According to A7, Women In Green has called on the public not to stop hitchhiking. They insist that residents should not allow terrorist to disrupt the daily routine of Israeli civilians. I only agree on one level, the level that one should not let the terrorists win by living in fear. I however, do not feel that we should continue to call on people to hitchhike, more get to the root of the problem. WIG should call on the government to increase public transportation. An appropriate call would be to not to stop going out to the shtachim, or not to stop your daily routine. However, if there was a safer mode of transportation then hitchhinking...go for it! Protect the students, soliders, residents and tourists who travel the shtachim on a regular basis.

every person who would have hitchhiked, but changed his mind, only makes it more dangerous for those still without rides.
two people together at a trempiada are much safer than one. a terrorist is less likely to stop, and one might notice something suspicious that the other doesn't.
