Here's Eddie with his favorite corgi. He was a true hero, who devoted himself without hesitation to serving others in every aspect of his life, and eventually gave his life doing so. Miss you so much buddy, see you on the other side.

This ad was recently posted to the public Facebook page of Israeli real estate firm Hari Zahav. The English translation is in the alt text. It's important not to paint any group by its most extreme members. It's also important to be aware of the existence and influence of these extremists.
