As you will recall, this past April someone firebombed a Montreal Jewish school’s library. One of the culprits has now pled guilty.

Teen pleads guilty to Jewish school firebombing.
One of the main suspects in the firebombing of a Jewish school in Montreal has pleaded guilty to arson. In exchange, the conspiracy charge against him has been dropped.

Sleiman Elmerhebi, now 19, made the plea in a Quebec courtroom on Thursday. The arson “was an emotional response,” Elmerhebi told the court. “I was reacting to acts of violence in the Middle East that I saw on television.”

Three people were originally charged in connection with the April attack on the United Talmud Torahs school. Charges were dropped against one man in October because of lack of evidence. Elmerhebi’s mother Bouba Elmerhebi Fahd, 36, is still facing a charge of being an accessory after the fact for allegedly helping her son travel to Brazil after the incident.

HMMM. I'M SHOCKED HE WASN'T A HINDU OR BUDDIST OR EVANGELICAL CHRISTIAN. A MUSLIM. WHO WOULD HAVE THOUGHT? LUCKILY HE ISN'T A BAD GUY. JUST A LITTLE "EMOTIONAL."
