I’m curious what the thought process was behind handing out candy upon hearing that a major terrorist was eliminated. Or rather if there was a thought process at all. I was quite surprised to see the local news stories about it. It seems reasonable to rejoice at such a feat, but the more I thought about it, the more it felt wrong. Jews are supposed to emulate God. Not terrorists. Why would we do something that only terrorists do?

Sitting here on this eve of Yom Hazikaron, my heart is feeling very heavy. I am trying to wrap my head around the magnitude of the loss that we as a nation have dealt with and continue to deal with. I can’t. But I still try. I heard today (from what I think is a reliable source) that Israel has lost almost 700 soldiers since the last Yom Hazikaron. Thinking deeply into what that really means is painful. But I do it anyway.

It’s been a while since I’ve noticed the parallels between current events and the weekly parsha. I’m sure they’ve been there, but they haven’t been jumping out at me. This week though, something in particular caught my eye. After Makat Arbeh began, Pharoah quickly ran to get Moshe and Aharon to stop the locusts (Shemot 10:16-17.) This same action happened after all of the previous makot as well. It’s begun to sound quite repetitive at this point.

Yesterday marked the 100th day of the war. Milchemet Simchat Torah, Operation Swords of Iron, whatever you want to call it. 100 days since October 7th. 100 days since the hostages were taken to Gaza. 100 days since the morning of Simchat Torah when we were all just minding our own business and forced to watch the world turn upside down. 100 days (and counting) since then. What’s weird is that 100 days has a different connotation for me. A slightly more pleasant one.

Christie brings up Superstorm Sandy and the people who put their trust in him during the recovery as “the highest high” as a public official. “But I also have made mistakes. I made judgments that were wrong and I’ve trusted people that I shouldn’t have trusted.”
A mayor who is in "the arena" and always going to give her "authentic self." Philly's first female mayor @PeopleforParker is already showing up differently than her male predecessors.
