“The Jewish people have had difficult times in the days before the coming of the Messiah. The whole house of Israel needs to begin observing the most precious laws!!!!!! Observe Shabbat [1], family purity [2], kashrut [3], laws regarding interactions between people. Dear brothers, please help your people to bring the Messiah closer and teach all the people of Israel to be saved!”
– Yael Safra in ‘Jerusalemites’ FB group

– “When is he coming? Is there a date? Oh, I see, he couldn’t come because they’ve blocked the roads [of Jerusalem]!"
– “Respect! This is the only way to save the Jewish people! All those who disagree can leave!”
