....childish talking....
Look, I'm among the first around here to warn about danger, but this is just silly.
The IL govt has warned about the danger of Israelis traveling to there for months, that does mean that there is a level of danger and I'm not going to deny that, but elevating your view of the danger to a random inconspicuous tourist based on the suspected targeting of a high profile obvious target seems a bit reactionary to me. Honestly, thats almost saying Butler Pennsylvania is a dangerous place and you shouldn't travel there
Again, not minimizing the danger...

Rabbi Kogan had a shop in Abu Dhabi. Today it's closed. The Mezuzah is ripped off, on the floor..

Ok, you are only proving the point that visibility is dangerous... what does that have to do with the danger to an inconspicuous tourist who does not contact theChabad, or act Jewish publicly?
