A hero. Leading from the front. Word among Sar-El is that he was first through the door.

He’s a hero. God bless him. I hope he had Jesus and I can meet him in Heaven someday.

BDE stands for “Baruch Dayan Emet”, which is a Hebrew phrase that means “Blessed is the true judge”. It is a traditional Jewish blessing that is recited when someone has passed away. The phrase is often used to express condolences and acknowledge the passing of a person.

First through the door, knowing about all the monsters behind it. Gave his life grudgingly for his comrades and the innocents his team rescued. But I bet he went first secure in the knowledge everyone around him would back him to the teeth. If he died the terrorists would pay dearly for it. What a feeling to know you have that kind of support behind you when innocents are counting on you.

The price of liberty is high and ongoing. For Israel, the price of liberty and survival is higher and constant.

Thank god for Arnon Zamora.

The Mourners Kaddish

Glorified and sanctified be God’s great name throughout the world which He has created according to His will.

May He establish His kingdom in your lifetime and during your days, and within the life of the entire House of Israel, speedily and soon; and say, Amen.

May His great name be blessed forever and to all eternity.

Blessed and praised, glorified and exalted, extolled and honored, adored and lauded be the name of the Holy One, blessed be He, beyond all the blessings and hymns, praises and consolations that are ever spoken in the world; and say, Amen.

May there be abundant peace from heaven, and life, for us
and for all Israel; and say, Amen.

He who creates peace in His celestial heights, may He create peace for us and for all Israel; and say, Amen.

The Israeli military leadership leads from the front.

When one researches the past of some Israeli leaders, the chubby old Israeli PM, took down a plane full of terrorists, was operational in Entebbe, or was undercover as a old lady walking with a cane.

Wouldn’t be surprised to learn that Netanyahu had keep Israeli personnel in a cage lest they go one a rampage through Gaza

One question still lingers: Why was the “most secure country in the world” so insecure that day?

“Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says he approved the operation to release four hostages in Gaza “without hesitation.”

The prime minister says that during his meeting with Andrey Kozlov, the freed hostage said he wrote in a notebook every day that he would be reborn, “and that is really what happened.”

“And I want to repeat and make clear that we will return everyone,” Netanyahu says, adding that he was working on more operations to return more captives.”

Which is why you don't see the "patriots" here in the US rise up at all against the leftists. Most can't be sure the someone else has their back. Pretty much my tagline since January 2021.
