Something can be bad, awful, unspeakable without being the Holocaust. Someone can deserve respect, human rights and basic human dignity without being Anne Frank. Not everything has to be equated with the Holocaust.
Released hostage Eli Sharabi on finding hope in the darkness of Hamas’s tunnels: Every evening, he and his fellow hostages began sharing three good things that happened to them that day.
“You have to train yourself to think positively… And that was very, very good for our survival.
“Self-pity is like a curse for me.”
The body of hostage Oded Lifshitz will be returned to Israel tomorrow.
Oded was a journalist and peace activist who helped found Kibbutz Nir Oz.
He dedicated his life to helping others and transporting sick Gazans to Israeli hospitals.
His grandchildren called him "Super Grandpa" for his wisdom and love.
He was abducted from his home on Oct 7 and killed in Gaza.
May the memory of this gentle, peaceful man forever be a blessing 🕯️💔
