(JNS.org) Israeli President Reuven Rivlin met with European Catholic leaders at his residence in Jerusalem on Wednesday, urging an interfaith response to terrorism and stressing Israel's commitment to freedom of religion and worship.
"On the evening of Rosh Hashanah, Alexander Levlovitz, a Jerusalemite, a family man, was murdered when terrorists threw rocks at his car, forcing him off the road," Rivlin told the Catholic leaders. "This bloody attack shows us once again that terror is terror—whether with rocks, guns, or other weapons—and it shows us we must act firmly against all terrorism."
