Holiday Shooting
Is A Shocker

A dispute between two
congregants at Chabad Weltman
Synagogue in Boca Raton last week
ended in the shooting of one and
the arrest of the other.
While 200 congregants prayed
inside the sanctuary on the first
day of Rosh Hashanah, Oct. 4, Marc
Benayer, 79, shot Jonathan Samuels
in the parking lot, according to the
Palm Beach Sheriff's Office.
Samuels, 43, had been helping
the gunman's former girlfriend,
Marta Pinto, obtain a restraining
order against Benayer. Samuels was
shot twice in the back at about 1:45
p.m. and was taken to Delray
Community Hospital in critical
condition.
"This was insanity for a Jew to do
to another Jew on Rosh Hashanah:'
said Rabbi Zalman Bukiet, spiritual
leader at the synagogue. "I've come
to the conclusion that I just can't
figure it out:'
After Samuels was wounded,
another congregant approached
Benayer and said, "My friend, don't
do this." The man took Benayer's
revolver, which had no more bul-
lets, according to the police.

The virulent anti-Semitic and
anti-Israel rhetoric in Palestinian
media and textbooks can be
defended as a matter of free
speech — despite Palestinian
promises to avoid incendiary
propaganda against Israel.

The Answer:

The Palestinians are bound by the
1998 Wye Accords, which estab-
lished a trilateral Anti-Incitement
Committee to cease incitement
and hostile propaganda. The
committee is required to issue a
decree, comparable to existing
Israeli legislation, prohibiting all
forms of incitement to violence or
terror, and establish mechanisms
for acting against all expressions
or threats of violence or terror.
