the courage to be able to put his own political ambitions aside and put the election aside and focus on these individuals who are suffering so dearly. bianna, for so many this is very personal. the killer made it clear he was going after hias, the hebrew immigrant aid society, which in recent years helped a lot of refugees in the united states. and this hits home to you, because of your family s experience and the help you received from hias. yeah. i was surprised, wolf, to see the attacker and the shooter go after hias, as it s referred to in the russian community, because as you said, it helped millions of jewish refugees resettle around the world. and in our case, the united states. and this was in 1980. we moved here when i was 18 months old. we were allowed to leave the soviet union with $75 each. it was myself and my parents.
meet with some of the police officers who had been involved in this on saturday and that is what he is likely doing now, as well as meeting with some of the other first responders who were also involved here on saturday, wolf. it s a moment that a lot of people will certainly never forget, especially where you are right now, squirrel hill, in that beautiful neighborhood in pittsburgh where the tree of life synagogue is located. it s the heart the heart of the jewish community, a very tight knit, cohesive, loving jewish community. and so many of these people, all of them, i venture, to say we re clearly stunned, couldn t believe what was happening saturday morning when a killer walked into the synagogue, the doors wide open, walked into a synagogue with an ar-15 assault rifle and three pistols and began killing people. stand by, kaitlan. miguel marquez is in the middle of the protests over there. we have a lot more. we ll take a quick break. we ll be right back.
