Bar mitzvah of orphan whose family's massacre was ignored by the media

Murdered 4-year-old Elad Fogel (one of several pictures that were posted with the family's permission after the attack).

One Family reports today the happy news that Roee Fogel, whose mother Ruth, father Udi, and three of his siblings; Yoav (11), Elad (4) and Hadas (3 months) were murdered in their home in Itamar in 2011, celebrated his Bar Mitzvah today.

The Fogel family massacre - which included the beheading of 3-month old baby Hadas - was one of the most brutal terrorist attacks in Israel's history.  Yet the massacre went completely unreported in the entire Western media as I reported from Israel at the time (interestingly several months later a British MP managed to get an apology from the BBC for failing to cover the story).

Something I never reported at the time, but is worth mentioning in the light of the current scandal about leftist Israelis who seek to destroy the Jewish State, is that several Israeli leftists told me that they felt no sympathy at all for the Fogel family 'because they chose to live in the occupied territories'. There are sadly many leftist Israelis who hate 'Jewish settlers' as much as the Muslims do...
