@RabbiPoupko I don't understand your question. Hezbollah is too strong for non Hezb Lebanese to best them. Hezb is a threat to Israel, so we take care of our own business
@BerelSolomon Wow, a lot of haters here in the comments.
ועליו אמרו חז"ל (מסכת שבת פח ע"ב): הנעלבים ואינם עולבים, שומעים חרפתם ואינם משיבים, עושים מאהבה ושמחים בייסורים, עליהם הכתוב אומר (שופטים ה לא): "וְאֹהֲבָיו כְּצֵאת הַשֶּׁמֶשׁ בִּגְבֻרָתוֹ".
When Jewish families were deported to Auschwitz, children were often told to bring a small suitcase and one personal item.
Many chose a toy.
One survivor later described a little girl, about five years old, standing on the selection ramp after arrival.
An SS guard pointed left.
Her mother was sent right.
The girl did not understand.
She tried to follow her mother — but a prisoner whispered urgently:
“Give me the doll. Quickly.”
The child hesitated.
It was her favorite toy.
Her only comfort in a world that had collapsed.
Then she let it go.
The prisoner took the doll and pushed the girl toward the women’s line — where forced labor prisoners were sent.
Without the doll, she looked older.
More “useful.”
Less like a small child.
That moment likely saved her life.
Most children who arrived at Auschwitz were sent directly to the gas chambers.
Sometimes survival depended on a terrible choice:
To look less like a child.
A toy could mean death.
Letting it go could mean life.
