Stabbings, firebombings, and yeshiva burnings—in Israel

Jews are being stabbed, firebombed, and their yeshivas burned down—in Israel. Not in Europe, at least, not at this time.

A fire broke out Saturday night in a hesder yeshiva (program which combines advanced Talmudic studies with military service) in the northern city of Akko. There were no injuries, but the building sustained damage.

The city’s firefighting services reported that an initial investigation into the incident pointed to arson.

The fire broke out at around 3:30 am in a yeshiva located in one of the city’s mixed neighborhoods. Local firefighters were dispatched to the area and managed to put out the fire.

Another stabbing:

A 20-year-old Arab attempted to stab an Israel Nature and National Parks Service inspector Sunday, in Jerusalem’s Yad Avshalon neighborhood, near the Mount of Olives.

The inspector drew his weapon and was able to overpower his assailant, unharmed.

The molotov cocktail attacks seem to have eased off for the moment, but rest assured they’ll be back. A cheap and easy way to try to kill Jews—lob a firebomb into their car as they drive past, or at their bus, or even at their homes.

In Eretz Yisrael. Not in Nazi Germany. And the incitement that causes this hatred and violence? Well, that never stops. Because the world blames it on the “occupation,” not on the Arabs being raised on a steady diet of Jew-hatred. And oh yeah—the “wall” being built to prevent terror attacks. Yes, that “wall” causes terror attacks. Except that it doesn’t, unless you call the weekly riots against the fence terror attacks.
