ISRAELI GOVERNMENT DOING ITS BEST TO HELP VICTIMS OF CARMEL FIRE

Following what's already being described as one of the worst fire tragedies in Israel's history, the government is doing its best to make repairs.

It's possible for other people to help, and more info can be found here at One Jerusalem. Also here at the Jawa Report.

In related news, Big Journalism writes about how Jeffrey Goldberg, disturbingly enough, has been going off the rails recently by telling people not to donate to Israel to help in relief efforts (I recall he attacked Pamela Geller a month or two ago as well). It's regrettable that Goldberg is going downhill just to appease pathetic moonbats. Don't listen to Goldberg, and please donate to the JNF and other such charities to help in aid following this tragedy.

Update: and I almost forgot: a suspect has been arrested for starting the arson: a 14-year-old boy from Usfiya. Worst part about this:

After seeing the flames grow out of control, the boy became panicked, “ran back to his school [in Usfiya], and did not report the fire to anyone,” police said.

What a most atrocious coward of a youngster. He is going to have hell to pay for the horrific catastrophe he caused.
