We were abruptly and unmistakably awakened from our shipping "pity-party" when Hamas attacked Israelis near Eliat and reigned down rockets on the areas around Ashkelon. The deaths of civilians and police officers trying to help in a terrorist attack are sickening reminders of the world's hatred for our adopted people and Eretz Israel. But as many Rabbis have said, the average person's only recourse is; to help unify the Jewish people, pray, help those in need, and learn Torah. So, in a small way, we are trying to help by moving to Eretz Israel, so we can be counted among those who are helping the Jewish unity, and praying, and performing Tikun Olam, and learning Torah- IN ISRAEL.
To the families of those murdered; May their memories endure as blessings!
