The plot at the Huda Girls' school in Tarmiya was a "sophisticated and premeditated attempt to inflict massive casualties on our most innocent victims," military spokesman […]
In the post below I note that the three Christians murdered in Turkey were tortured before their deaths. When the American media reports developments in the case, that fact is never mentioned.
