Yemeni Jews have condemned the recent Israeli massacres in the Gaza
strip, saying what is happening in the strip is denied by all
religions.
Rabbi Yahya said that what the Israeli military is
committing in the strip forces Jews in Yemen to stay home in fear of
intimidations by some people who don't like to understand that Yemeni
Jews are not part of Israeli military actions in Palestinian
territories.
For his part, Jew Suleiman Bin Yaqup said Israeli crimes in Gaza is unacceptable by Yemeni Jews as killing people is unlawful.
The
Israeli military hit the Gaza strip for a fourth successive day. Gaza
death toll soared to almost 500 Palestinians as the aristrikes
continued on Tuesday targeting Hamas official buildings. And almost
more than 1000 other Gazans were wounded.
On December 11, a Jew was murdered in Amran province by a Yemeni local. Religious reasons were said behind the murder.
The murderer went on trial but no verdict has been made yet.
However, Yemeni Jews say that intimidations Jews experience may be as a result of what Israel commits against Palestinians.
Yemeni Jews claim they are intimidated and persecuted by some people; however, they say tribe elders intervene to protect them.
