Attacks on religious Jews are not coincidental, but a divine message. Hashem is instigating hatred due to our spiritual failings and corruption, even within observant communities. The true target is Torah, leading to attacks on visibly religious Jews and holy days. These events are warnings, echoing historical tragedies. Hiding Judaism offers no protection; only emunah in Hashem does. This is a call for teshuva, as our actions cause Hashem to withdraw His protection.
