NSW: Text of Jerusalem bomb victim's father's letter

SYDNEY, Aug 10 AAP - The text of the letter sent to The Age website by Arnold Roth,
whose daughter Malki was one of 18 people killed by a Palestinian suicide bomber in Jerusalem.



"My lovely daughter Malki was born in Melbourne 15 years ago.

"I wish I could tell you more about her wonderful character and achievements.

"Today, here in Jerusalem, she was murdered by a fanatic who didn't know a thing about her.

"My wife and I just don't have the tools to cope with this.

"We only want to do whatever we can so she does not turn into yet another statistic.

"Here is a photograph I took of her six weeks ago.

"I hope you will see fit to publish it so that people of reason will understand the
human tragedy."

Arnold Roth
