Nothing compares to the Holocaust. But a Jew taking a stone and throwing it at another Jew’s home is something tragic, intolerable and incomprehensible.”She added: “There is always a minority that carries out severe provocations. We are not afraid, but we are saddened. It would be good if people lowered the flames — from every direction, every side and every sector. We cannot fight one another when we have so many enemies around us. Disagreement is fine, but destruction? How is that possible? We know things will be okay.”6 View gallery Ambulances near the Sohlberg's house
