3 synagogues set on fire in Israel

Your Jewish News – by Anika Rao

Three synagogues were torched over the weekend in two separate incidents, Israel Police said.

Police investigators suspect arson in all cases.

The first incident unfolded at the Chabad synagogue in Kibbutz Magal. The synagogue was destroyed and the Torah scrolls were burned.

Hours later, two synagogues were burned in Petah Tikva. The Hovevei Zion Synagogue on Petah Tikva Street, was burned during the afternoon. 

An unidentified man is suspected of having entered the synagogue while it was empty and used flammable liquids to set the ark on fire. The ark was damaged, but the Torah scrolls were not damaged. 

Police launched an investigation, but so far no arrests have been made.

  1. “An unidentified man is suspected of having entered the synagogue while it was empty and used flammable liquids to set the ark on fire.”

    It will undoubtedly be ‘discovered’ he was a Muslim, or a Palestinian at the very least.

    Mossad.

    Or an affiliate.

    1. Impossible.

      According to the Talmud, He’s in Hell in boiling excrement.

      (I couldn’t make this stuff up if I tried).

  2. The human mind is capable of transcending many different levels of awareness. Multimedia keeps you in this world, unable to view what’s really going on beyond the screen in front of you. I pity these people glued to their smartphones while the house is burning down. I went to a Green Bay Packer game and the people sitting next to me were on their smartphones so much, I think they watched most of the game on the big screen replay. What are we evolving into? I can retire my sunglasses as the current path to the future doesn’t look too bright. I just wonder how much more of this charade will we tolerate? How many more must die at the hands of trigger-happy pigs? How many more insane laws, crooked politicians, and illegal wars will we allow this criminal government to have before we say “enough is enough”. I’m sick and tired of the daily insults they throw at my intelligence. I have to think there are likeminded out there at the ready.

  3. With all of the security and segregation which exist in Israel, who other than a Jew would have the ability to even enter a synagogue, let alone torch it?

    I can hear the whining that will prevail on the MSM for the next month: ‘Oy vey, the suffering of the poor Jews… Israel needs more money’.
