Malki’s Parents Write

The Good, The Bad, The Ugly

Frimet Roth writes from Jerusalem.

The Good is outnumbered two-to- one in the title of my blog, I focus here on those negatives - along with a light sprinkling of The Good. The Bad and The Ugly are in relation to terrorism and children with disabilities, and the current Israeli government’s pathetic handling of both. The murder of my precious daughter Malki colors this blog intensely, as does the life and challenges of my youngest daughter Chaya, profoundly disabled physically and cognitively.

This Ongoing War

Many people lack a factual understanding of events in our region because the media report them inadequately. We blog here because our daughter Malki, murdered at the age of 15 in a restaurant massacre in Jerusalem, was a victim of jihadist hatred and barbarism. For jihadism and terrorism to end in Israel, New York, Madrid, London and everywhere else, people first need to understand the scale on which it is happening and why. This ongoing war is killing us.
