" God wept this past week " ( Rabbi Jeffrey K. Salkin )

   Some liberal activist groups are associating this racist maniac Dylann Storm Roof with a sinister movement called " Christian Identity ".  But  Jewish author, Rabbi Jeffrey K . Salkin , wrote on June 23 : " Yes, Dylann aimed at religion too ".  Salkin said many are in denial about " the specifically religious element in the attack ".He began his article : " God wept this past week ".
    Reading Dylann's   sick but lucid " manifesto ", I could not find a single reference to God or faith. I can hardly believe that this drug crazed, mentally disturbed, high school drop out wrote that manifesto.
     The Russian novelist Dostoevsky has a certain terrorist character in " The Possessed " say: " If God does not exist , then everything is permitted ". Like this atrocity in the Old South-  during a Christian church service.
       Dylann Storm Roof, I suspect, was a patsy for a dark anti-religious political group. Cui bono ?
Too early to dismiss a New Atheism role here. The New Atheism is decidedly nasty.The New Atheists are also promoting Islamophobia in America and Europe." God wept this past week ".
