may hashem protect them!
Were there any fatalities?
carpet bomb gaza please, I highly doubt there’s true civilians there, that will stay civilians for life
will we ever face Hashem & admit that its time for us to do teshuva? or will the tzaros just keep hitting klal yisroel Chas Vshalom?
the choice is YOURS & mine. there is noone to blame but ourselves for bringing us to this tragic situation we are in now. we could’ve & should’ve started doing teshuvs before it got this bad. now we just have to see how horrific things will get chas v’shalom before we wake ourselves up & do teshuva
But as Bibi said, “if one Israeli should build a porch extension in Jerusalem the whole world will condemn them but for this the world is mum!”
He ought issue building permits – one new one for every missile fired!
