The Motive Isn't Clear

This Jew-hating terrorist got what he deserved, and the motive is very clear to the Jewish people:

Man sets fire to synagogue in France, is shot dead by police

"On Friday morning in Rouen, France, a man who set fire to a synagogue and fought with law enforcement was shot dead by police on the scene.

"According to the police, the man climbed a trash can at 6:30 am on Friday to reach the first floor of the synagogue and threw an “incendiary element” inside.

"He started a fire that caused 'significant damage' to the property but no injuries.

"When firefighters and law enforcement arrived on the scene, the arsonist climbed down, threw metal bars at the offices, and attacked them with a knife.

"The officers fired at the arsonist in self-defense and killed him.

"Jewish areas in France have been under high alert, given the steep rise in antisemitic incidents since the beginning of Israel’s war against Hamas.

"Nicolas Mayer-Rossignol, the mayor of Rouen, said that although the identity and motive of the man aren’t clear, 'in all likelihood, it is a deeply antisemitic act.'

"He added that anyone who attacks the Jewish community 'is attacking all of France.'"

Well, at least he said that.  But you know that if this had happened at a black church in America, nobody would have wondered what the motive was.  It's only when Jews are attacked is the motive -- and the attacks themselves -- questioned.
