historical murder, firearms, israeli sign language 

aaaaa wtffffff there's a town in northern israel whose sign is the same as the sign for "mass shooting" because of a terror attack in the 1970s

one of the only survivors was a baby, because their mother hid them. they stayed quiet the entire time and weren't found until later, alive and well, and soon discovered to be deaf.

this name origin story is just...... so quintessentially israeli
