Ok. You won the war. Congratulations.

But what if your whole strategy is put your people in harms way while your leaders hide out in 200 miles of tunnels?

And your comment says nothing about the responsibility that Hamas has for what’s happening

Check your subscription list

Focus instead Rabbi on Standing Together, actual Israeli Arabs and Jews, protesting authentically, not performatively. While you're at it, say something about Hamas, like that they have no bomb shelters in Gaza despite creating 200 miles of tunnels that civilians can't enter. Hold multiple truths.
