During a Shabbos cultural event in Beersheva, Israel Police Chief Yochanan Danino referenced last week’s vehicular accident in the French Hill neighborhood of the capital. Shalom Yochai Sherki HY”D was killed as a result and 20-year-old Shirah bas Ada was seriously injured.
While police have not yet officially declared the ‘incident’ an act of Arab terrorism, Danino during his address on Shabbos spoke of the “Tragic difficult terror attack”.
The family of the victim spoke out harshly before and during the levaya due to Israel Police’s hesitation to declare the fatal incident an act of terrorism as it clearly was. The 37-year-old Jerusalem Arab resident who drove the car was lightly injured and treated in Hadassah Mt. Scopus Hospital while in ISA (Israel Security Agency – Shin Bet) custody.
Shirah bas Ada on Sunday morning 1 Rosh Chodesh Iyar was reported in serious/stable condition and is still in need of tefilos.

A TERROR ATTACK!!!!!???? DUH! Sometimes it seems surreal
thinking about moving to Israel??
here’s what you REALLY need to know before you move to israel
on a nutshell
taxes are about 6 times more than in usa
tax on cars 118% starting
renewing car license annually – 400$ starting ( depends on engine size and type)
running your own business? be prepared for surprise visits from tax authoritis in your shop.
no free tax garage sale
e-v-e-r-y income must be reported , subjected to ridiculously high fines and jail penalties
tax authorities are running a snitching toll free line (named as the
“justice line”…)
and encouraging the citizens to call
18% vat applied on e-v-e-r-y-t-h-i-n-g! (services and products) except vegetables
80% tax on fuel (2$ per liter)
even if your salary is 2800$ a month you will end up seeing only 40 % of it , all the rest goes to taxes (IRS , “health tax” , national securitiy tax ( you’ll never see a penny back from them)
deduction standard is not exist in israel , no refunds!
speed cameras everywhere (30 kmh more = 250$ fine, 70 kmh more = losing you driving license)
biometric ID is a must for everybody , all the data being kept by the government
