Jerusalem Christians not surprised by attack on nun as abuse becomes routine
Priest says once-isolated incidents of ultra-Orthodox people spitting near them have become daily occurrences; 61 physical attacks recorded in 2025When Catel arrived in Jerusalem over a decade ago, such incidents were rare. Roughly once a year, he said, “when I went out in my habit, people — usually ultra-Orthodox Jews — would spit behind our back.”
“We never paid attention because they were isolated incidents,” he said. But for the past three or four years, it has become something of a daily occurrence.

“Everyone said this would happen someday,” said Pierre, a 30-year-old parishioner, who was “not surprised” by the incident and in fact expected things to escalate to a possible death if there were no intervention.
The day of the attack on the nun, a priest he knew was in the supermarket when a man stopped before him.
“He told his son, in Hebrew, ‘He should be killed,'” said Pierre. “If nothing is done… someone will take that step.”

... to live or pray in the Jewish/Hebrew Holylands. Only the special chosen people of God should be living and praying in the Holylands. All other people the Fanatical Jewish Extremeist who they believe are not Jewish should be removed from their lands. Netanyahu brought these Chabad sect of Hebrew Extremists from all over Russia and Eastern Europe to take over lands in the West Bank from Palestinians. Then establish Jewish settlements and steal these Palestinian land for their owners - forcing the Palestinians out. Terrorizing them so they will leave.
This is the ultimate goal of extreme right-wing Israelis and Hebrews - to force all other people out of Israel by gunpoint if necessary,.. or murder should they not get the hint. They really want this concept of Democracy to come to an end. So then their Theocracy becomes the primary force of dictating governmental policy and authority and the law primarily built upon Biblical teaching and their wacko interpretations thereof.
Viktor Orban held the same philosophy. Putin's governmental philosophy is also driven by the Extremist Orthodoxy of the Conservative Russian church.
Dictators and tyrants like to create the public perception that the hand of God helps guide the dictator to run the government. So they often align themselves with Fanatical Extremist churches to give their ruthless dictatorships the Blessings of the Heavens - AS IF.
Netanyahu does it, Mike Huckabee does it, Donald trump does it,... as do most of the members of Trump's cabinet. They are all ultra pious people who read, study, and practice the Good Books and have a spot reserved for themselves up in Heaven because they are such good, thoughtful, and rightious people.... AS IF....... 
They are all disgusting charlatans who artfully manage public perceptions in the effort to make themselves appear pious. But in reality
they are only snake oil salesmen trying to advance their cherished Fascist Agendas quietly and on the QT. Absent too much public awareness of what it is they are really up to. While they operate in the shadows, selfenriching themelves, and laughing all the way each time they make a deposit into their secret bank accounts. Corruption and ruthless tin pot dictators travel in the same exact ycircles.
