The Guardian: Eight Israelis killed leaving synagogue in East Jerusalem 

Gunman waited until Shabbat prayers ended before opening fire on people in worst terrorist attack on Israelis in years 

Eight Israelis have been shot and killed as they left a synagogue in East Jerusalem, in the latest episode of spiralling violence across Israel and the occupied Palestinian territories over the past two days. 

A gunman in a car waited on Friday night until Shabbat prayers ended at a synagogue in Neve Yaakov, a neighbourhood of Israeli settlers in occupied East Jerusalem, before opening fire on people as they left the building, a preliminary Israeli police probe said. 

The attack came on International Holocaust Remembrance day.

Unless Russia wins the Fakestinians won't get much help. Russia has had to withdraw people and assets from Syria.

Iran has had to dial back aid. Unless the Russian contracts make the Iranians flush, Iranian financial aid might stay slim.

Not a good time to start something for the Fakestinians.
