All those in Chu”l should give it some serious thought as to why they still live where they do and not in the Land which is “very very good”.
Meaningful fast…
Pischei Teshuva EH 75:3 (After Tisha Bav)
There are a number of reasons, but Limud Hatorah is assur on Tisha Bav
some people have to live here in order to be able to give zedokoh to all the people who come to collect money!
some people have to stay here to be able to give money to the people who come from israel to collect!!
Mi Keamcha Yisroel!
So come to Eretz Yisrael, continue to give that money and save those people the flight fare 🙂
