Hate Crime in Tel Aviv

Hello All,

2 teens were shot and killed, and 11 wounded at a LGBT youth center last night as I was getting ready to go out.  Here are some links that describe it better than I can:

(btw, if anyone knows how to set up a link in a blog, your tips would be much appreciated.)

The community here is gathering together to remember the victims and support their families.  
I hope you are all well,
Ben
