In the wake of this murder, both Arab and Israeli authorities will work to condemn all violence and protect Jews around the world. Chabad emissaries will also reinforce their dedication to advancing Jewish life and resilience. Amid rising antisemitism and security threats, particularly from Iran, Jewish leaders and allies will intensify protective measures and prove that faith and unity are stronger than violence and evil.
While Israel has a right to speak about violence against Jews, there's been an equal rise in anti-Muslim violence over the past year. The rate of anti-Muslim and anti-Palestinian crimes in the US, for example, is up significantly. In Israel, too, the police have purposely neglected Arab communities, resulting in record homicide rates. The Arab diaspora deserves just as much recognition and protection as Israelis.
