Sorry, but closing this is exactly what the terrorists want.
They want to disrupt the normal flow of life, and for people to live in the fear that they propagate. They are all about control through intimidation, and we cannot be intimidated by them. Hamas are nothing but a band of miserable rats, and in due time they will be exterminated like the rats that they are.
The oil price is falling every day now, and between the military action against the rat nests and economic troubles for the Iranian government that sponsors Hamas, this will come to an end very quickly.
On the other hand, if people who are living through the situation in E”Y posted about what is happening from a personal perspective, it would help those of us whose place is elsewhere to really understand what is going on and to think of more ways to help begu”r.
Of course we need to do what we can, but we cannot let the terrorists consume our lives. When Scuds fell during the Gulf War, some Breslov Chassidim danced on the rooftops, to show that the forces of evil cannot stop Yidden from being besimcha. While that is a bit extreme, so is surrendering to evil and letting it run our lives.
