Talk is cheap. What punishment could be given to bring this beautiful, holy Jewish mother back to take care of her children????
When terrorist acts repeat themselves, we know that society is sick. Therefore, a more effective way of preventing these heinous crimes must be implemented. It’s not enough to catch the perpetrator. That sick society must be given a strong medicine. Enough!
We can still say Tehillim for the infant, still alive but in serious but stable condition
If this doesn’t prove how correct Moreinu HoRav Meir Kahana ืื”ื ืืฆืงืืื”ื was, then what can?
Even if they are caught they will be let out by this sick Supreme Court. Death penalty for terrorist. But that will only happen if Ben Gevir becomes prime minister.
