Today is Rosh Chodesh Nissan, the first day of the Jewish month that holds Pesach, Passover, the holiday of redemption. What will this Pesach bring? How many families will have empty chairs at their Seder Table?
The world has a short memory. After six months many have forgotten what caused the humanitarian crisis in Gaza. They’ve forgotten the horrifying pictures of families being kidnapped, women being raped, babies being murdered. They’ve forgotten that Hamas rejects every single proposal Israel makes for the release of the hostages and a ceasefire. They have forgotten that there should be no deal at all. All the hostages, from one-year-old Kfir Bibas to Amiram Cooper, aged eighty-four, should be released without any deal because that is basic human decency. They’ve forgotten that Hamas started a war that Israel doesn’t want but we will have to finish because our very survival depends on it.
Please! Make them remember October 7th!
