911............(nok phone....?) 'I Think He's Nuts' JERUSALEM (Reuters) - Moshe Bik, a Hasidic Jew, believes he was on a mission from God when he pulled the plug on a cellular telephone that was attached as a detonator to a bomb planted in his ultra-Orthodox neighborhood in Jerusalem. Several minutes after the bearded, 36-year-old seminary student severed the connection on Thursday, the phone rang, a signal which police said would have triggered an explosion next to a school. "I was the messenger sent from Heaven to neutralize the bomb," the Maariv daily quoted Bik as saying on Friday. Spotting a knapsack on the pavement, Bik opened the bag and found two mortar shells connected by wires to a cellular telephone. So he gave the wires a tug and removed the phone. Police believe the device was planted by Palestinian guerrillas -- and issued a warning to the public to leave suspicious objects to their explosives experts. "I think he's nuts," Bik's wife, Leah, told reporters.
