NEW HORRIFIC DETAILS ON THE MELBOURNE SYNAGOGUE ARSON

Disturbing new informations have emerged about the arson attack on a synagogue in Melbourne on Friday night, during Shabbat services.

According to reports, the man accused of setting the fire first tried to enter the synagogue, where around 20 Jews were gathered.

He rang the synagogue’s doorbell and, as he waited for someone to answer, reached into his bag for what’s believed to have been a petrol bomb.

Inside, a 13-year-old Jewish boy happened to be in the synagogue office. Hearing the bell, he checked the security monitors. Not recognizing the man, the boy made a life-saving decision: he didn’t open the door.

The attacker rang the bell a second time, then left the lit petrol bomb at the base of the entrance and casually walked away.

Moments later, the boy noticed smoke seeping through the door. By that time, a passerby had already called emergency services.

Fortunately, the fire caused only superficial damage. The synagogue’s reinforced security measures: a steel door and a blast-proof transparent plastic cage installed a few years ago contained the flames.

Police are still investigating what else the attacker had in his bag. But we know this: he came to kill Jews.

A synagogue should not have to be barricaded with steel doors and a blast-proof plastic cage. Jews shouldn’t have to monitor who’s at the door. And a 13-year-old boy should never have to carry the responsibility of protecting his community from a terrorist.

Most of all, Jews should not have to fear for their lives every time they go to synagogue.

It’s all wrong. And I truly hope the world sees it.

SHOCKING NEW PHOTO FROM OCTOBER 7:

Surrounded by terrorists, wearing only in his underwear, this harrowing image was taken moments after the abduction of Yagil Yaakov from Kibbutz Nir Oz.

Yagil was just 13 years old at the time. He was kidnapped along with his father, Yair (“Yaya”) Yaakov, who was later murdered by Hamas in captivity. His body was recently returned to Israel for burial.

Never forget that this war began with Hamas kidnapping children, raping women and burning entire families alive.

Hamas came. Hamas kidnapped me. Hamas murdered my friends. But I won; I survived. Now, I speak for those who can’t.

I’ll keep exposing Hamas’ crimes and fighting for the hostages’ release—including my partner, Avinatan.

I refuse to let terror sympathizers control the narrative.

@HjalteOlsen Hjalte, det er ikke et privilegie at være den gruppe der proportionelt er udsat for flest hadforbrydelser i landet. Som man siger på engelsk, get over yourself.

[Tal @TalSz]

@HjalteOlsen Seriøst, at spinne det som om det giver jøder en fordel i livet at antisemitismen (ét ord i øvrigt) er så ude af kontrol er misvisende og ondsindet.
Jeg LOVER dig vi helst ville være foruden.

@moecream2500 @HjalteOlsen Behandling af hovedpine skal kureres forskelligt om du har en hjernesvulst eller fordi du er dehydreret.
At forsøge at betegne antisemitismen som et privilegie er vanvittigt. Især når folk herhjemme er truet på livet af den.

[Tal @TalSz]

@JDemag420 @HjalteOlsen 1. Ingen offerrolle. Bare realiteten.
2. Det er statistisk bevist.
3. Vrøvl. Men skal det forstås som at du legitimerer antisemitismen, alligevel?

[Tal @TalSz]

@HjalteOlsen Ikke at adressere, hvor problemet er dødsensfarligt er useriøst og utroværdigt.

Så dine venner kan gå i synagogen uden politi? De kan fejre Chanukah offentligt på Rådhuspladsen uden politi? De kan sende deres børn i den jødiske vuggestue uden politi?

[Tal @TalSz]

@HjalteOlsen Fordi antisemitisme er et privilegie? Jeg mener jøder også fortjener at leve frit. At leve i et land, hvor vi kan samles uden politibeskyttelse. Hvor vores tilhørsforhold ikke skal skjules. Hvor sikkerhed ikke er vores første overvejelse. Det kræver en præciseret indsats.

[Tal @TalSz]

@KashifAhmadDK @BywaterJoanne Den reelle kamp mod antisemitisme? Fortæl os gerne hvordan du bidrager til den.

[Tal @TalSz]

@DSUAlexander Det er ækelt!

[Tal @TalSz]

@HjalteOlsen Det har alt med sagen at gøre. Historisk ved vi at stigende antisemitisme er tegn på et sygt samfund. Det kræver konkret handling og ikke en Corbynistisk ‘all forms of racism’ tilgang, der fejler alle og puster til ilden.

[Tal @TalSz]

@BywaterJoanne @shanishalomp Tusind tak for din indsats!

[Tal @TalSz]

@mikaelmilhoj Har lige set et byrådsmedlem retfærdiggøre det, fordi det svarer til ‘forskelsbehandling’. Som om den stigende antisemitisme er et privilegie. Vanvittigt.

74-year-old Sarah couldn't make it to the bomb shelter because of her disabilities. Unwilling to leave her behind, Sarah's 87-year-old husband Emil held her close as they hid in the stairwell.

They were hit, with Sarah sustaining spinal fractures while Emil suffered broken ribs and deep cuts.

In the hospital, the two shared a room, still holding hands despite the trauma.

It just goes to show that love will always be stronger than hate.
