L'Unità: Attacco a una sinagoga di Detroit, ucciso l’attentatore: la sua famiglia morta nei raid israeliani in Libano

Le bombe statunitensi in Iran fanno riesplodere l’allarme terrorismo sul suolo Usa. Sembra essere infatti una rappresaglia, una vendetta per le morti in Medio Oriente provocate dall’attacco congiunto all’Iran e ai suoi alleati da parte di Stati Uniti ed Israele, quanto accaduto giovedì 12 marzo al Temple of Israel, sinagoga alla periferia di Detroit, in Michigan.
È qui che Ayman Ghazaleh si è lanciato a bordo della su auto contro la sinagoga, per poi tentare di irrompere nel luogo di culto. L’uomo è però morto quando il personale di sicurezza del Temple of Israel lo ha visto ed ha reagito aprendo il fuoco contro di lui. Ghazaleh è l’unica vittima dell’attacco: il bilancio è di un solo ferito, un agente della sicurezza che ha riportato lievi lesioni quando l’auto si è schiantata contro la sinagoga.
La sinagoga di Temple Israel situtata a West Bloomfield comprende un centro per la prima infanzia che offre assistenza e istruzione a bambini a partire dalle prime settimane di vita. Nell’auto di Ghazaleh sarebbe stata trovata una grande quantità di esplosivi: dalla sinagoga dopo lo schianto si è alzata una grossa quantità di denso fumo nero.

Secondo quanto riferito dalla Cnn, Ghazaleh prima di lanciarsi con la sua auto contro il Temple of Israel ha pubblicato sui social media le foto della sua famiglia, tra cui dei bambini, scrivendo che erano stati uccisi in un recente attacco israeliano nella città di Mashghara, in Libano, che con l’Iran è l’altro fronte caldo dell’offensiva di Stati Uniti e Israele nella regione mediorientale.
L’attacco è stato commentato anche dal primo ministro israeliano, Benjamin Netanyahu: “L’antisemitismo non conosce limiti né confini. Israele viene attaccato perché è lo Stato ebraico. Il Temple of Israel a Detroit è stato attaccato oggi perché è un luogo di culto ebraico”, ha scritto su X il leader di estrema destra, in cui ha reso “omaggio al coraggioso personale di sicurezza della sinagoga per l’intervento tempestivo. Hanno salvato delle vite”.

Attack on a Detroit synagogue, shooter killed: his family killed in Israeli raids in Lebanon

The United States’ bombs in Iran reignite the terrorism alarm on US soil. It appears to be a retaliatory strike, a revenge for the deaths in the Middle East caused by the joint attack on Iran and its allies by the United States and Israel, as happened on Thursday, March 12th, at the Temple of Israel synagogue on the outskirts of Detroit, Michigan.

It was here that Ayman Ghazaleh drove his car into the synagogue, attempting to break into the place of worship. The man died when the Temple of Israel security personnel saw him and reacted by opening fire on him. Ghazaleh is the only victim of the attack; the toll is of one injured, a security agent who sustained minor injuries when the car crashed into the synagogue.

The Temple Israel synagogue, located in West Bloomfield, includes a nursery center that offers care and education to children from their earliest weeks of life. A large quantity of explosives was found in Ghazaleh’s car: after the crash, a large amount of dense black smoke rose from the synagogue.

According to CNN, before driving his car into the Temple of Israel, Ghazaleh had posted photos of his family, including children, on social media, writing that they had been killed in a recent Israeli attack in the town of Mashghara, Lebanon, which, along with Iran, is the other hotbed of the United States and Israel’s offensive in the Middle East.

The attack was also commented on by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu: “Antisemitism knows no limits or boundaries. Israel is attacked because it is the Jewish state. The Temple of Israel in Detroit was attacked today because it is a Jewish place of worship,” wrote the far-right leader on X, paying “homage to the courageous security personnel of the synagogue for their timely intervention. They saved lives.”

Michigan Terrorist Attack

Not a lot posted about the incident in Michigan. I've seen one person call it terrorism, it might be, we don't know. It is too early to know what the motives are. It is as likely to be about a custody dispute as about geo-politics or anti-semitism.

So relieved that there were no deaths (other than the #terrorist) at #TempleIsrael in #Detroit today. A full and speedy recovery to the guard who was hit by the car, and to the 8 first responders who were hospitalized for reasons that are not yet clear (but are concerning, at least until we learn more).

Agi: Sparatoria in una sinagoga in Michigan, ucciso l'aggressore. Ignoto il bilancio

AGI - Sparatoria in corso in una sinagoga in Michigan, nel Midwest degli Stati Uniti. La notizia è riportata da vari media americani. L'allarme è scattato poco prima delle 13, ore locali, al Temple Israel di West Bloomfield, un sobborgo a nord di Detroit. Una densa colonna di fumo nero è stata vista alzarsi dal tetto della sinagoga. L'aggressore sarebbe stato ucciso. Le scuole della zona sono state evacuate e ai residenti e' stato chiesto di rifugiarsi sul posto.

Secondo le prime ricostruzioni fatte dai media locali, ma non ancora confermate, una persona si è schiantata con un veicolo all'ingresso del Tempio Israel, poi è uscita armata per entrare dentro l'edificio.
L'Fbi conferma

"I love connecting #Jews to #Judaism. There’s a big part of the #Jewish world where people don’t know what they’re missing out on. If people have only ever been exposed to one stream of Judaism from a young age, their worldview will be shaped by that experience. We have access to knowledge, spirituality, and meaningful ways to connect to G-d, and we should be sharing this with all Jews.

I try to show them love by inviting them to #Shabbat dinners and powerful experiences. These are all very important things to me. But I wasn’t always this way.

I grew up in #Sharon, #Massachusetts, surrounded by a rich tapestry of Jewish life. I attended #TempleIsrael, a #Conservative #synagogue, spent summers at #CampYJ in #Amherst, #NewHampshire, and was involved in #BBYO throughout high school. Between #Hebrew #school three days a week and my parents hosting many Jewish holidays, Judaism was woven into the fabric of my daily life.
