If I am understanding you correctly, you think it is a bad attitude that we daven for Hashem to take revenge on our enemies (your first sentence seems sarcastic). PLEASE tell me I am not understanding you correctly. If I am, then you should not be reciting Av Harachamim every Shabbos…..

What a wonderfully Jewish attitude. We daven that Hashem take revenge on our enemies (Nekom Nikmas Dam Avadecha…)OTOH, there is no inyan by us to “turn the other cheek” WE do not have to forgive someone who does not even regret the vile deed that he committed.

Could not happen to a nicer guy. Remember what Rabbi Akiva said when he saw a skull floating on the water. Gee he was stab in the skull! Poet justices just maybe

Hashem is the ultimately judge and jury. He has meted out his own punishment for this rasha maybe not a literal eye for an eye but he and his family will suffer the consequences now for his actions and the world will see the hand of Hashem.

The question to ask, learned Rosenbaum,in retrospect is, does anyone really get themselves into these types of situations? Did your brother, no! Let us not assume, as the vigilante groups did so many years ago which lead to the senseless slaying our your beloved brother. It is a thinking man who would add the aspect of reality “that being attacked doesn’t bring any consolation. You speak about sincere remorse…we ALL have sincere remorse for the past and present situation. Surely, forgiveness and understanding will enter into your heart, I pray.

There is nothing ironic about it. According to the kabala the victims soul comes back to this world to arrange revenge on his murderer.
