Jewish Woman Brutally Murdered in Iran

[metanoiame]

A Jewish woman was murdered by Muslim extremists in the Iranian city of Esfahan, the Israeli media is reporting. The victim was 56, and it appears the reason for the murder is an ongoing effort to take over the family home by an adjacent mosque.

there is more on this story here http://www.timesofisrael.com/jewish-woman-brutally-murdered-in-iran-over-property-dispute/

I waited for some time to see if there will be some comments, but no- nobody interesting in this suppose because she was Jew.

No, generally people aren't interested (as much as other similar stories) in this community, because it didn't happen in America. Pay attention.

yeah, articles on events outside of the US (or the UK or Canada, since we have a lot of British and Canadian members as well) often don't get a lot of comments

no it's not the reason- because when was the Israel operation in Palestine here were a lot of comments with hate toward Israel.

This is just proof that no religious belief or ethnicity ensures a people who are exempt from perpetuating hate crimes. Killing people because you want to expand your property is never right. I feel awful for the sisters, and hope they get some justice.

Awful. My heart goes out to the victim's family.
