Melanie Escalante- British woman fatally stabbed

A 25 year old British woman was stabbed to death by Jameel Tamimi when on the Jerusalem light rail line on Friday night. Although they took her to the hospital soon after the incident, it was too late as the victim had died after arrival. Thankfully a suspect was arrested on the scene (Jameel Tamimi). The Israel security agency stated that the man suffers from "mental hardship". The large amount of people touring during the Easter/Passover holiday are when people decide to attack.

This woman came on a visit and wasn't expecting anything to happen to her but due to the unexplainable reasons of others, she is now dead and at such a young age.  People come to worship and pay their respects and end up getting assaulted for it. It's ridiculous that people are so bothered by what other people worship that they feel the need to harm them. I will never be able to fully comprehend these acts of terrorism. I hope that the families of this girl and any others who were insulted, can heal and recove from such tragedies.

  1. This is awful and I am sad this happened. I agree it is absolutely ridiculous to harm someone because of what they believe in or who they worship.

  2. This is terrible, I hope the man is punished for his actions. I wonder what kind of mental hardship the suspect suffers from.
