Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu has released a strong condemnation following the recent arson attacks against shuls. Mr. Netanyahu stated “we cannot permit such attacks to pass in silence”.
“Any attack against shuls and houses of worship is an assault against that which is hold to the People of Israel” stated the prime minister, adding “we many of remain silent and everything possible will be done to apprehend those responsible”.
As was reported earlier by YWN-ISRAEL, many sifrei kodesh and tashmishei kedusha were destroyed in the arson attacks this past Shabbos in the Kvish 6 Highway caravan shul and another shul located on Chovavei Tzion Street in Petach Tikvah.
The investigations are continuing. Police are not ruling out the possibility the arson attacks were acts of Arab terrorism.

Hearing it from BJ Netanyahu is nice but we want to hear it from other “price tag” prosecutors such as Livni, Aharonovitch, and Peres.
Strangely they are all silent. I’m predicting (hopefully wrongly) that no one is arrested, as oppose to the news we hear each week of a different group of hilltop youth arrested and held without rights to a lawyer etc.
maybe mr.pm is recognizing Hashem and his land a little more?
