From Al Arabiya:
Police in Abu Dhabi are investigating the death of an American teacher stabbed in a shopping center toilet by a suspect wearing a Muslim veil, official media reported Wednesday.It sure sounds like the many attacks on random Israelis lately simply because they are Jewish. The burqa as a means to disguise the murderer is a nice touch, though, and it is even causing some Arab nations to question the wisdom of allowing so many people to walk around in disguise.
The motive for Monday's attack in Boutik Mall was unclear.
Witnesses said the 37-year-old American woman, who worked at a nursery school in Abu Dhabi, was stabbed by a person wearing a black robe, black gloves and a niqab -- a Muslim veil that conceals the face except for the eyes.
"The victim was stabbed with a sharp object following an argument in the ladies toilets," the head of Abu Dhabi's police criminal investigations department, Colonel Rashid Bourscheid, was quoted by The National daily as saying.
"Police are still trying to determine the reasons for the attack and the identity of the suspect, who fled the scene," he said.
...
The stabbing took place on the same day as a recording attributed to IS spokesman Abu Mohammed al-Adnani urged Muslims to attack Westerners by any means, even if only to "spit on their faces".
Violent crime is relatively rare in Abu Dhabi although there have been attacks on foreigners elsewhere in the region.
In Saudi Arabia on Saturday, an assailant stabbed and wounded a Canadian while he shopped at a mall in Dhahran on the Gulf coast.
Last month a Danish national was shot and wounded in the Saudi capital Riyadh -- an attack that IS on Monday claimed was carried out by its supporters.
Once again, Palestinian Arabs re in the forefront of terror fashion and tactics. I think that we need more European countries rewarding them with symbolic recognition to make sure that they learn the lesson that they have no responsibilities whatsoever.
UPDATE: The stabber was caught, after she attempted to bomb the home of an Egyptian-American doctor.
The police say that she was targeting Americans.

UPDATE 2: My guess was right. ISIS is asking Muslims to do "lone burka" attacks against Westerners.
