Dozens of Jews killed in Israel

[Quasar44]

What the hell is up with Orthodox Jews being so obsessed

 

[Quasar44]

Every rare encounter I have with them is very very distasteful

The article says they were orthodox Jews.

This is horrible...

What horrible is they were spreading covid 19.

If this had happened in the USA, and it was discovered they had Covid-19, the cause of death would be marked as Covid-19.

All you guys suddenly think you're prophets.

I bought an on-line Certificate in Prophetology from an Obama funded college.

Too bad you failed.

You sick human

All men!! Spreading covid!!

Sadly the tyrants running the NY Government forced the Jews into observing their faith in secret....reminds me of 1930s Germany.

Karma maybe? Do your homework on Middle East bullshit in particular the Talmud. These sick, racist, schizophrenic, genocidal pedophiles think killing Whitey will bring forth their "savior" while Christians (uneducated Whites) worship the "savior" they rejected.

There was NO pandemic in 1930s Germany.

Wow are these folks insane . Having thousands run in a small area never ends well

Orthodox Jews don't do spectator sports or attend large events.

Huh?

They do. All the time.

Wow are these folks insane . Having thousands run in a small area never ends well

A t least 44 people have been killed in a crush at a crowded religious festival in the north-east of Israel.

Dozens more were injured at the Lag B'Omer festival, which takes place annually at the foot of Mount Meron.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu travelled to the scene and said Sunday would be a day of national mourning.

Tens of thousands of Orthodox Jews attended the all-night festival, making it the largest event in Israel since the coronavirus pandemic began.

Israel is a nation in shock. This is the worst civilian disaster in its modern history.

Questions are being asked about how an annual celebration turned into such a tragedy.

Police - who were in charge of public security at the site - are used to even bigger numbers turning up and they are already facing criticism. They have launched their own investigation.

At Mount Meron, there are still chaotic scenes and hundreds of buses are trying to transport the attendees away.

Meanwhile, many families have struggled to get news of their loved ones due to overburdened phone services.

Some bodies are yet to be identified and funerals are not expected to take place until after the Jewish Sabbath, which begins at sunset. Leading rabbis have called for prayers to support the bereaved and injured.

'No place to move'
Witnesses have described the panic as the crush began to unfold.

"It was crowded and there [was]... no place to move," one attendee told the BBC. "People started to fall on the ground."

"All of a sudden we saw paramedics... running by," another attendee, Shlomo Katz, said. "One after the other [they] started coming out... Then we understood that something is going on here."

Tragic and horrifying.....

Indeed.. I spoke with Jewish friends at the market this AM.. They told me all the participants were Orthodox.

I am assume this is something they have annually.....I wonder if the logistics or planning changed this year as opposed to previous years....I can't understand how it happened

This is an event that happens annually yes. It's the Jewish holiday of Lag Ba'omer, and each year at the time thousands of Orthodox Jews rise to mount Meiron to celebrate in honor of Rabbi Shimon-Bar-Yochai. They're separated by the religious community they belong to, and each have their own path to go up and down the mounain.

This year, celebrating not only the holiday but also winning over Covid19, both Netanyahu and minister Der'i agreed to not force gathering-limits at the mountain, and added to that that celebrations were prohibited in other places because of the heatwave, it caused 10 times more people to gather up at the mointain instead of the number of people usually fit to fill the place up.

The incident took place when a passage leading down from "Toldot Aharon" gathering was filled with people, and the police officers blocked the exists for some reason, causing a stampede. People fell on top of one another downhill, crushing eachother. Among the dead were also small children.

Israel is horrified over this.

Then what's happening at the border with the thousands of human trafficked kids being packed in container jails and then released into the US without being tested for Covid? Democrats, the party of hypocricy.
