The Yeshiva Massacre in Jerusalem this day (March 6) in 2008 occurred when 26-year-old, well-to-do East Jerusalemite Alaa Abu Dheim walked into a religious school with an AK-47 in a cardboard box & sprayed fire for 16 minutes, murdering eight boys & wounding 15.
All of the murdered and wounded were unarmed kids and young men who were sitting and studying.
Of course Hamas praised the attack as “heroic,” and Gazans handed out sweets and fired guns in celebration. But don’t look away at the poll showing 84% of Palestinians supported this massacre of studying Jewish kids at school.
Meanwhile, forget also the idea of the “poor, desperate” terrorist under “occupation.” Dheim was none of those things. He was engaged to be married, came from a financially comfortable family, held a steady job, and had full Israeli residency status.
No, Palestinian terror is born of a culture that educates martyrdom and the glorification of killing Jews.

May Aharon’s memory forever be a blessing.🕯️
Three people are injured in a suspected car-ramming terror attack at the al-Khader Junction, Magen David Adom says. According to MDA, two are listed in light-to-moderate condition, and one is listed in good condition. Police say that the assailant was "neutralized" by security forces at the scene. The incident was initially reported as a shooting, due to the gunfire toward the attacker.

NETANEL FELBER UPDATE - PLEASE SHARE (Netanel Felber was shot in the head by a Palestinian terrorist in December 2018, while on IDF duty protecting the citizens of Israel. His recovery and progress has been an open miracle and a testimony to the power of prayer.) 1)A few weeks ago, Netanel got a new electric wheelchair, which has a joystick. There was skepticism that he would know how to use it, but he proved to be a pro at it. The first time he used it, he was even coordinated enough to go out of a doorway. He doesn’t have great depth perception because his eyes don’t work together so well, so he sometimes doesn’t stop in time, but he is learning. He has been “driving” inside the apartment and around the neighborhood. He is so proud that he can go where he wants. An additional benefit is that when people visit and go out with him, he can be at eye level with them. 2)Netanel’s mother I was sitting on his right side. He wanted to get her attention, but he couldn’t touch her or bang on the handle of his wheelchair because he doesn’t yet have control over his right side. So, he moved his left hand near her and snapped his left fingers to get her attention. 3)Thank God, there are positive developments with regard to Netanel being able to walk and stand. His standing posture and stability have really improved. Netanel can now help to advance his right leg, which he was once completely unable to move and he had needed the therapist to move it completely. Now he is able to play a role in moving it. PLEASE CONTINUE TO PRAY FOR NETANEL ILAN BEN SHAYNA TZIPORA
Reports say that one of the heroes who stopped the terrorists was a Haredi man with a gun license — a commander in the Hashmonaim brigade. In a community often divided between those who serve and those who protest against serving in the army, I feel overwhelming gratitude for this man - for his courage, and for his choice to do everything he could to protect his brothers and sisters this morning. May his bravery remind us that in moments of danger, what binds us together is stronger than what sets us apart.
