Shira's Last Song

At 10 years old, Shira Banki was playing with muscians 4-7x her age.

At 16 years old, Shira was supporting friends in Jerusalem's Pride Parade when a Jewish extremist ripped through the crowd where Shira and 5 others were stabbed. Shira died in the hospital from her wounds.

10 years before, unbeknownst to Shira, this same extremist also went on a stabbing spree at Tel Aviv Pride. He had only been let out a few weeks before. I don't think if Israel has the dealth penalty or if this man will be forced into solitary confinement. But he deserves no mercy from anyone.

Baruch Dayan HaEmet
Blessed is the True Judge
May her name be for a blessing always.
