It’s a very frightening thought, but I’m sure a lot of ppl will still send their children. It takes a lot of Bitachon. We must know that Hashem is in charge.
I heard a story about a girl who was supposed to go to seminary in 2001. Her parents were so frightened because of what was going on in Israel at the time so they decided to keep her home. She got a job in the twin towers….well she was in the building on 9/11. So we never know what’s in store for us.
I’m not saying I would make this decision so easily to send a child to Israel. If any of my children were supposed to go next year, I would surely be having second thoughts and possibly keep them home. I don’t know. Does that mean I don’t have enough Bitachon? Or would I be doing my hishtadlus to keep my children safe?
Let’s just Daven that every Jew should be safe there?
