A couple of months ago I wrote that my hiatus from blogging would be resumed, but I am sorry to say that did not happen.
For the time being, my decision regarding this blog will be that during times of crisis and G-d forbid, war, I will resume the live blogging..that is daily or hourly updating.
At present there will not be a regular blog posting, however, from time to time I will bring an update or comment.
My reasons for this retreat are varied, including taking up residence for a while in one of many Israeli rabbit holes......according to a friend - the safest place to be when Israeli politics become too mishugana (crazy)
I realize I will lose some of my regular readers and for that I apologize. I appreciate your loyalty til now. Please check the other blog site: www.fromthehillsofjerusalem.blogspot.com
And truthfully, I will come out of the rabbit hole from time to time.....if you subscribe to this blog and check your subscribe list, any updates will show up there.
The murdered boy from Bat Ayin has been identified Shlomo Nativ and his age has been reported as 16 years instead of the earlier reports of 13 yrs. His funeral will take place at 5pm this afternoon in the community of Bat Ayin.
The village of Bat Ayin does not have a security fence for ideological reasons and it's residents do not employ arab laborers in general. Whether or not an isolated family did in fact employ an arab worker is not clear at this point. Whether it was a worker inside Bat Ayin or infiltration, it doesn't matter. The only reason an arab would run into a Jewish town wielding an axe is to murder Jews who live there.
It appears that the terrorist was apprehended and disarmed by residents and shot by a memeber of the community security team , nevertheless, he still managed to flee the scene. Conflicting reports remain as to where the terrorist is now, and a home in a near by arab village (Kherbat Tzafa) has been surrounded by Israeli security.

The lovely Greek Colony (HaMoshava Yevanit) neighborhood of Jerusalem has a
wonderful charm of yesteryear about it, but like many Jerusalem
neighborhoods,...
