" Does this represent a new offensive against Jewish and Israeli targets by the Sunni extremists group? "

Bit insensitive if you ask me .....on the day that they showed they dont give a damn who they target .

Speak for yourself ... Seems you probably in the minority.

Plenty unite the rest of us ... That don't eat dinner in your Chader Ochel....in some isolated remote area that may as well be in the Nevada desert....worlds away from Tel Aviv or NYC.

No wonder you hold those views that you do... You don't have the same bonds as the vast majority of Jews worldwide do... Religious or not .

Even Reconstructionist Shuls .

But I'm not sure you understand all this.

And no it's not unique in Jewish community- at all . But I get that it's difficult for outsiders to understand.

I posted a link to information about non-theistic shuls in order to help improve your understanding, that in the diverse Jewish community there is in fact an organized movement with a number of such congregations. Just from your own comment, it was clear that this would help to improve your understanding.

You're welcome.

They feel a connection to their cultural & historic homeland too.

Learnt a hell of a lot about you since I joined this group tho .

"Shows you don't really know much about secular or non-religious Jews."

You should qualify that statement to ......secular or non-religious American Jews.

My own culture and my own country I know inside out ....we are worlds apart you and I shira , in distance in politics in believes ....you are as American as Jonathan Pollard.....I am as Israeli as Shlomo Sand .
