Har Nof Jerusalem Beheadings, an Attempted Cover-Up?

י״ח לחודש התשעי תשע״ה

On December 2, the following statement was released:

RABBI DAVID BAR-HAYIM CONDEMNS "HAR NOF GATE" 

Machon Shilo's Rabbi David Bar-Hayim has requested to publicize his condemnation of the government's deliberately covering up the fact that the Arab terrorists who perpetrated the Har Nof massacre decapitated two of the victims, HASHEM yikom damam. Rabbi Bar-Hayim has expressed outrage that the government and media have joined forces in preventing Jews from knowing the grisly nature of these barbaric murders in order to preserve "industrial quiet." 

The following article on Arutz 7 makes reference to the decapitation of two of the victims of the Har Nof massacre: 

Arutz 7: Father of Murdered Druze Officer Visits Har Nof Synagogue
Moving meeting at synagogue where Zidan Seif was murdered by Arab terrorists as he tried to stop attack, details of massacre given.

Hezki Ezra, Ari Yashar, November 27, 2014

"They heard the shots from outside and they stopped here. Zidan's shots confused them and they stopped here, they could have continued. ...They (the victims - ed.) were praying, no one had a weapon. At a certain point they realized they couldn't continue, the two of them went out of the door quickly towards the stairs," continued the witness.

Relating the moment when Seif was murdered, the witness added "Zidan was behind the wall there, Zidan hit him, but he (the terrorist) while continuing coming down the stairs managed to shoot another bullet."

Seif's father responded "it's hard, we can't do anything that's our fate. We can just hope that Israel will only have happy occasions and not sorrow."

When told how the terrorists cut off the heads of two Jews at prayer, the father responded "they have no G-d. In a holy place like this, they come in, these are people with no values, these are not good people." (cont.)

Was there an attempted cover up? If so, why?

To keep us numbed out, in denial, and under control?
