Efrat region Arabs have saved Jewish Lives many times
This will not be on the news. It is a Rantburg Exclusive no link available.Rabbi Sholomo Riskin of Efrat was in Potomac Maryland this week. Among the things he spoke about was the relationship between the Jews of Efrat (the city is noted in the 5th chapter of Micah and is in on the P side of the Green line). On a number of occasions the Arabs in the area around Efrat have notified the Efrat security authorities of impending suicide bombers. Each time the bomber has been killed or caught. He said there are several local Imans who have told their followers to help stop suicide bombings. The local arabs and the Jews of Efrat have substantial commercial relations. He said the current situation is starting to be called âthe Oslo warâ by Israelis who realize that the Oslo agreement essentially paved the way for terrorism and for the harm to the Palestinian and Israeli economies (the former being by far the more severe). Riskin hopes Bush will be reelected. Posted by: mhw 2004-04-18 |
