On March 6th, 2008 a Palestinian went to the Mercaz HaRav Yeshiva school in Jerusalem and opened fire on the students at around 8:30 pm. A student named Yitzhak Dadon and an off duty IDF Captain named David Shapira stopped the assailant after a 16 minute shooting rampage that killed 8 and wounded 11, 5 of them critically. The attack was praised by Hamas, and polling showed that 84% of Palestinians supported the attack. It was publicly celebrated in the streets of Palestine with marches, fireworks, and passing out sweets to adults and children.
Also on this day in 2004 during the second intifada, the 4th in a series of 5 suicide bombings at the Erez crossing occurred, killing 2 and wounding 20. May all the victims’ memories be a blessing. #israel #palestine #jerusalem
