Israel has destroyed the home of a Palestinian who ran over and killed two people in Jerusalem last month just days after militants killed four rabbis and a policeman at a synagogue in the city. The east Jerusalem home of Abdel-Rahman Shaloudi, 21, was blown up before dawn, the Israeli Defence Force said. The decision to destroy it is likely to further inflame tensions that are already on a knife edge after a spate of clashes between Palestinians and Israelis in the wake of this year's two month war in Gaza. Shaloudi was shot dead by police as he tried to flee after mowing down commuters at a light railway stop on October 22.
