2 Pro-Israel Arab Boys Under Threat, Now Looking for Safe Houses Abroad

Concerned Zionists are are working to place two courageous Muslim youths from Israel, Mohammad Zoabi and Yihya Mahmeed, in safe environments – after they expressed opinions sympathetic to the abducted Jewish teens and became targets of hatred in the radical Muslim community.

Zoabi received much media attention after he posted a video on Facebook expressing his concern for the three teen hostages. Mahmeed uploaded a picture of himself to Facebook, with a large Israeli flag and a sign saying “#Bring Back Our Boys.” The two boys, both high school students, immediately began receiving death threats. Several of Zoabi’s relatives were arrested on suspicion of planning to abduct him to Samaria. Mahmeed was assaulted in the street in his city of Umm al Fahm the other day while he was walking to school for his final exams. As result, he missed his exam.

“We are a handful of concerned Israelis and friends of Israel,” writes the group in a page dedicated to raising funds for the project.

“We are currently seeking a safe place for the boys outside of Israel until the situation claims down,” adds the group working to assist the two. “Hopefully, a trusted host will be found. The funds we are trying to raise will be used for air fare and upkeep expenses for the two boys.”

I couldn’t believe how an order to kill could be carried out in a minute

The armored truck brought the bodies. There were three people in the car, and nothing happened to the person in the back. He got out of the car, looked around like this, put his hands in the air, and the two bodies in front of him were hacked to pieces.continue reading ›
