Mette Bentow remembers the tragedy that struck her daughter’s bat mitzvah – and people’s reactions to this antisemitic attack.

Transcript: In the weeks after, we received email and phone calls and letters from people all over the world: Jews, non-Jews, Muslims, writing especially to Hannah, saying that nothing should take away – no heinous act should take away from what was her great day. This great outpour of comfort and support and that was wonderful –unfortunately, I also received and read and saw comments about how we brought this upon ourselves. When I try to explain it to my children who ask why does such a bad thing happen… and obviously, for them they ask why do things like this happen to “us”, or Hannah would ask why does something like that happen to me and my party or why does something like that happen to Dan, I say it’s because of hatred. Hatred caused this.
