An thoughtful art piece depicting Hanukkah candles snuffed out, smoke rising from the wicks, as blood-colored wax drips down.
Below that, three articles; two which follow the straight news portion.
Later that same day, Jewish film director Rob Reiner was stabbed to death with his wife in his home in Los Angeles. [UPDATE: his son Nick has been taken into custody as a suspect – it’s likely this was a family dispute not an antisemitic attack]. (2)
Also in California, a Redlands home was shot up in a drive-by shooting. The home has Hanukkah decorations out front and the residents did not seem to personally know who the shooter was. (3)
“The Mossad has been warning Australia regularly for months about Iranian and other potential terror plots against Jews, The Jerusalem Post has learned, following the attack that murdered 11 at a Hannukkah event on Sunday.
“Already in August, the Mossad gave helpful warnings to Australia regarding terror threats from Iran.” (4)
