'Cold blooded murder of two Jewish worshippers on their most holy days was an abomination' - You rletters and today's Picture from the Past


Attacks were an abomination
We have had many depressing times in recent years. The previous seven days were however, a new low. The cold blooded murder of two Jewish worshippers on their most holy days was an abomination. Worse than this is the plain fact that British Jews had been expecting it.
They had warned of rising antisemitism to the point were Jews were hiding their identity and placing their own security around their synagogues. Any right thinking person should be deeply outraged and feel a sense of shame that such things are happening here.
It is inevitable that the politicians will point fingers but you can be sure that neither Labour, Conservative nor Liberals have covered themselves in glory. For some reason or many Britain has become a country that gives succour to antisemites. People who wish to see nothing less than the extinction of the Jewish state and people.
