(Worthy News) – Prime Minister Naftali Bennett on Sunday condemned the overnight vandalism of the religious holy site of Joseph’s Tomb near the West Bank city of Nablus by Palestinian extremists, vowing to bring the perpetrators to justice.

“Dozens of Palestinian rioters in a frenzy of destruction simply vandalized a holy place for us, the Jews. They shattered the headstone over the tomb and set fire to rooms in the complex; I have seen the shocking pictures,” Bennett said.

“We will not tolerate such an attack on a place that is holy for us, on the eve of Passover, and will reach the rioters,” he warned. “We will see to the rebuilding of what has been destroyed, just as we always do.” [ Source: Algemeiner (Read More…) ]
