“As God, the righteous One, the King of the earth, the Lord of justice, spare none of them.  Let the fire they have rained upon these children that have taken many of them out of this world prematurely, be multiplied back upon them. I pray as your Prophet, hear me oh God and avenge the blood of these young ones that have been killed and the ones that have been wounded”
