Hevron~What Is Reallly Going On??

Fun in Hevron ( Pic © TAB)
In 2015 I posted about being in Hevron, at Me'arat HaMachpela for Parsha Chayei Sarah. It truly was a great weekend. The communities in Kiryat Arba and Hevron itself were close knit, but friendly and very welcoming to the hoards of strangers coming for the special Parsha. 

Of course there are those who are constantly screaming "occupation" and "apartheid", and that Jews should leave~but is that really true? Has anyone of these protesters actually made an honest effort to understand the whole situation?

This short video shows the facts on the ground in a straight forward way. The narrator also speaks of the one terrible attack by a Jew, Baruch Goldstein, an American-Israeli physician, that was (and still is) condemned by the entire political spectrum. It is said that he was under a great deal of stress and he felt a pogrom was in the making, so decided to attack first. Nobody will ever really know, because the arab mob tore him to bits (literally)

Conversely, when Tasyier Abu Snena carried out his terror attack (only one of the many against Jews) he was tried in a court of law, and found guilty. He was also held up as a great hero for killing Jews, and has now been elected Mayor of Hevron! 

There may never be a total peace, but it should be possible for people to live side by side without killing each other. These "organizations" who put out biased reports are only creating more friction which is not helpful to either side. I can say this because I live in the middle of an area surrounded by arabs and for the most part, we all go about our lives peacefully, because in the end, all we want is to be able to go to work, put a roof over our heads and live our lives with our families.

I Love Hevron! Please Listen to the Whole Video~Only Truth Will Bring Change...
