ORT Students Die in Tel Aviv Blast
Unfortunately we have bad news. Two girls from the junior high school ORT Levovitch in Netanya, one aged 14 years old, Maria Tagilchev only 7 years in Israel from Turkemenistan, an only daughter, and a 15 years old student, Raisa Nemirovsky, only child as well, were killed among 19 other youth, most of them from FSU countries, while on the line to enter a most popular discoteque " PASHA", located on the beach of Tel Aviv.

Click here to read the initial report of Friday's blast.
The terrorist, from an extreme islamic group in the Palestinian Authority, was a walking bomb, who was looking to kill as many as possible young people by suicide in order to provoke Israel to react in an emotional manner, by thus creating a havok in which this situation will be brought to the UN, hoping that it will create an international involvement, and perhaps sending in UN troups like in Kossovo.

We are dealing with murderous people who will have no humane western values to stop them. We are shocked by the horror and the cynical use of innocent young victims in order to promote fear, terror and political gains. The government of Israel has decided so far to give the palestinian leader another chance, as it happened the foreign minister of Germany was in his hotel, just in front of the explosion, he went down to see the horror, and he was so shocked that he went to Gaza and threatened the Palestinian chairman Yasser Arafat to publish an immediate public condemnation, otherwise Germany and other European nations, will stop the generous support they give the palestinians.

This is the situation here at the moment, it is morally very hard for us. I guess we may look to you viewing at home TV the events from a far as if we became another Chechenia.

Should you wish to send condolences letters to the families, please fax to our head office:
