While we’re on the subject of the synagogue attack, let’s note how this tweet from Iyad El-Baghdadi is supported within the Qur’an:

.

I won't distinguish between those who attack worshippers in a synagogue or mosque or church, if you attack worshippers you're a terrorist.

— Iyad El-Baghdadi (@iyad_elbaghdadi) November 18, 2014

Qur'an 22:40 mentions Allah preserving "monasteries, churches, synagogues, and mosques in which the name of Allah is much mentioned"

I offer my condolences in particular to those for whom the loss of Rabbi Mosche Twersky, grandson of Rabbi Joseph Soloveitchik, is a cause of grief.
