The Hazon David synagogue has been destroyed for the 36th time.
Like thieves in the night, armed with heavy equipment, the destruction contractor and a tight chain of policemen managed within two hours to leave the place as a heap of rubble. The Holy Ark and Torah scroll were exiled. What a terrible sight. The roar of bulldozers dug deeply into their hearts but the people’s spirit remains strong. As sure as the sun will shine tomorrow, we know that tomorrow, a synagogue will arise anew.
The people’s spirit is indeed strong but where is the spirit of the leadership that was just elected by our own will?
We call on the nationalist representatives: Stop the destruction. Allow things to be sorted out. Allow for the time for the necessary arrangements to be made. Do not lend your hand to wanton destruction. You were elected in order to build. To develop. Do not betray the will of the people.
