A month after three members of the Dee family were murdered in a terrorist attack, the bereaved father and husband Rabbi Leo Dee spoke with i24NEWS about his response to hearing that Israeli forces killed those responsible for his tragedy.

“There’s a great level of comfort knowing that these men have been eliminated and that the world can sleep a little easier tonight,” Dee told i24NEWS. “Be it in New York, London, Tel Aviv, or Jerusalem, there are three fewer murderers funded by Iran out on the streets, and that’s a joyous comfort to know.”

Rabbi Dee had earlier said if the terrorists were caught alive, that he would have liked the opportunity to speak to them. But now, he wishes to speak to their families.

“All my kids have agreed, the four of us would like to sit in front of the parents of these terrorists, the brothers, sisters, uncles, or aunts, and ask them two questions: What did they expect to achieve with this attack? And what is their vision of a better humanity and a better world? I think the answers to those questions would be very illuminating on live TV to a broad audience,” he said.

Leo’s two daughters, Maya and Rina, died instantly in early April when they were shot in a terrorist attack in the Jordan Valley, and his wife Lucy, who was also shot, passed away three days later.

Earlier on Thursday, Israeli forces killed the terrorists responsible for their murder during a raid in the West Bank city of Nablus. They were identified as members of the Gaza-based Hamas terror group.

Addressing the international audience about Thursday’s developments, Rabbi Dee said he had a very “unusual approach to it.”

“I do believe it’s really one percent of the Palestinian population [who are] violent terrorists, and across the Middle East. I believe there’s an activity that all of us can participate in that can change the situation,” he explained.

“This whole tragedy happened to us on Passover, a time when God took us from slavery to freedom, and I believe there’s a message here: As Jews, we have a duty to be servants to God, and if God took us from slavery to freedom, then perhaps there’s a task here for us to take people from slavery to freedom. You don’t have to look very far in the Middle East to see slaves, there are 100-200 million of them, slaves to the Iranian regime, the Syrian regime, the Gaza regime, and the Palestinian Authority regime.”

“Maybe this tragedy is a sign from God saying ‘Now is a time to march.’ I believe if the people of the free world march in the streets with the slogan, ‘Free the people of Iran, Syria, Gaza, and the Palestinian Authority,’ I believe we could make a big difference because we could give them strength… to bring down those evil regimes.” –i24 News
