Wednesday 22nd October, 2014 / 28th Tishrei, 5775
President Reuven Rivlin responded to the terrorist attack which took place
in Jerusalem earlier this evening:
“The atrocious murder of an innocent baby girl, a victim of indiscriminate
terrorism, should disgust all those who have a heart.
The increasing incitement on the Arab streets and the streets of Jerusalem,
which unfortunately receives the backing of leaders in the Arab world, has
the ability to destroy the delicate balance of life in Jerusalem, and carry
us all into a maelstrom of destruction and pain.
As a sovereign people in our own country, and capital city, it is the
security forces alone, who have the responsibility to act, decisively and
unashamedly, in the face of these brutal terrorist operations.
At such difficult times, our hearts are with the bereaved family and we pray
for a quick and complete recovery of the wounded.”
