Geneva synagogue fire was arson, investigator says

Remember this? How they all went out of their way to describe this obvious case of arson as some kind of ‘electrical malfunction’ or some crap like that? Well, synagogues and churches don’t just burn by themselves, especially not from the front entrance
GENEVA, June 1 (Reuters) - A fire that devastated Geneva’s largest synagogue last week was caused by arson, the investigating magistrate said on Friday.
Investigators had believed an electrical fault might have been to blame for the pre-dawn blaze in the empty building, which injured no one, but had now established it was started deliberately.
Magistrate Michel Graber told Swiss news agency SDA that investigators were seeking a DNA analysis from a cigarette butt found at the scene.
The May 24 fire largely destroyed the Hekhal Haness synagogue, built in the 1970s.
Wealthy Switzerland is known for public order and tolerance but has become increasingly the focus of religious tension, particularly targeting its Muslim minority.
Anti-Semitic acts that become public are rare, but in June 2001 an Israeli rabbi was shot dead on the streets of Zurich.
The fire took place during the Jewish holiday of Shavuot, which marks the giving of the Torah, the Jewish holy book, by God to Moses on Mount Sinai over 3,000 years ago.
*A certain religion has the nasty habit of attacking other religions on their high holidays. Although this is well documented and a repeating pattern can be found around the world to prove that this continues over more than one millennium the authorities are willfully blind to this menace.
Why do you think that is?

This is a satirical website. None of what you read here has anything to do with Islam, because Islam is a Religion of Peace. Everybody knows that good Muslims never do the things they do, (because Allah does it for them, Quran 8:12) and we know that only our misperceptions, ignorance and stereotyping of Islam makes Muslims chop off heads, kill and rape women and children, bomb subways, buses, nightclubs and fly jets into buildings. If it wasn't for the media and da Jooozzz, we wouldn't even know its happening.
We welcome open, honest, thoughtful, and vigorous discussion in the comments threads, so do yourself a favour and don't accuse us of being 'haters' because we are loving, tolerant people. Don't curse us, don't threaten us with death or hellfire, and don't accuse us of being "just like the terrorists" because we don't do to Muslims what they do to us or to themselves. Yes, we know that only idiots oppose Islam and sensible people submit, but you should know that we are ignorant bigots, hypocrites and Islamophobes, and we prefer to remain that way...
But since you are forcing yourselves (and your abhorrent belief-system on us) we will defend ourselves, because we must. Avoid tu quoque and ad hominem attacks. Don't bother with circular reasoning either, we been there, done it. If you annoy us, you will be banned and your posts summarily deleted.
Try to add to the discussion, don't try to sell snake oil, don't try to cover us with Islamic shrouds of kitman and taqiyya, don't bother with da'awa, (we've heard it before) don't spam us with long pieces of cut & paste, write in English, try to tell the truth,
(we know that's hard for you because you are all pathological liars) but the truth will set you free, try it!
One more thing: don't think you can post here under multiple monikers. You will quickly be disappeared! The same goes for
trufers and conspiracy kooks: you get one chance, one time. Blow it out of your ass if you must; put your stupidity on display.
But you won't be back, trust me on that.
Take a deep breath before you post, try to make some sense, do not just vent, do not make a fool of yourself and if you prove us wrong you can earn 10 Islamic dollars for your piggy bank. Deal?

Now now, we don’t know who set this fire.
However, 1.2 billion or so people do have a strange fascination with fire.
And guns.
And bombs.
And sawing off heads.
And lots of other fun things.
Wouldn’t surprise me at all if one or two of that 1.2 billion were in on this.
its about time people inform their government they need to export their muslims to nears land of islam. muslims do not want to live in peace with their neighbours, demand that they be given special privilidges, and it is begining to take its ugly course on the rest of the non muslim civilians. deport muslims now.
More and more mysterious. The “electrical fault” was plausible, coming from the person who funded or built the synagogue, but this current article says the fire “devastated” the buliding, other versions say “severely damaged”, and others say “only lightly damaged”, though the facade was badly damaged ( haaretz.com/hasen/spages/863144.html ).
It may be significant that the synagogue is “attended mostly by Sephardic Jews with Middle Eastern and North African roots”; payback for opposing minarets on mosques, perhaps?.
One bomb: no Mecca.
