Terrorist Strikes Jerusalem Yeshiva

by Eric on March 6, 2008

A terrorist armed with a semi-automatic weapon entered the dining room of Mercaz HaRav yeshiva and opened fire. The terrorist murdered 8 students and injured many others. The yeshiva was founded in 1924 by the famous Rav Kook, and is credited as the organization that led to the birth of Religious Zionism.

In honor of those who were killed in the attack, I will have “posting silence” for the rest of the day.
