Once again, PM Benjamin Netanyahu sends loud and clear message.

7.1.2016

A horrible attack on a sleeping 13-year-old American citizen living in Jerusalemoccurred on Thursday and so far, President Obama has made no effort to make a comment.

Hallel Yaffa Ariel, verified a U.S. citizen by the State Department, was asleep in her bedroom when a Palestinian teen climbed over the wall of her village in the West Bank, sneaked through a window and stabbed the girl multiple times in the upper body. Her assailant fled and also stabbed a civilian security guard arriving to help. He was then shot and killed by Israeli officers and identified as 17-year-old Muhammad Nasser Tarayrah. The girl was rushed to the hospital but ultimately succumbed to her fatal wounds.

The mother of the Palestinian boy praised her son's actions, as noted by Pamela Geller:

"My son is a hero. He made me proud. My son died as a Martyr defending Jerusalem and the Al-Aqsa Mosque. Praise be to Allah, Lord of the Worlds, he has joined the Martyrs before him, and he is not better than them. Allah willing, all of them will follow this path, all the youth of Palestine. Allah be praised."

Here's what Obama said about the murder of a U.S. citizen by an Islamic terrorist: "…"

Nothing.

(He could barely muster a statement even after the recent terror in Istanbul.)

Meanwhile, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu had plenty to say, just as he didafter Orlando, and wholeheartedly condemned the attack on an innocent girl:

“You don’t murder a sleeping child for peace. You don’t slit a little girl’s throat to protest a policy you don’t like.

“You do this because you’ve been brainwashed. You’ve been brainwashed by a warped ideology that teaches you that this child isn’t human.

“We will not let barbarism defeat humanity. There’s no middle ground between beautiful Hallel and her unspeakably evil murderer.

“Today, each of us is going to fight back… We fight back first by fighting back, fighting the terrorists, fighting their backers, fighting those who incite for such murder, whether in Hebron or in Orlando, or in Berlin, or in Ankara, or in Belgium, anywhere.

“We fight back by making sure that our collective moral compass doesn’t waver even a millimeter."
