A young American-Israeli attending a rave that was disrupted by Hamas terrorists on Saturday texted his parents “I love you” and “I’m sorry,” before becoming unreachable — as horrifying videos of attackers paragliding into the party and kidnapping attendees emerge.
Hersh Golberg-Polin, who just turned 23 this week, was celebrating in the desert in northern Negev when Hamas militants invaded the party and began attacking attendees, his father told The Jerusalem Post.
After texting his parents, “I love you” and “I’m sorry,” Golberg-Polin became unreachable.
“We just want him home and safe,” his father, Jonathon Polin told the outlet, adding that if he could tell his son anything, he would say: “We love you. Come home to us.”
The 23-year-old had also been celebrating his release from his Army service, which he finished at the end of April.
During his service, Golberg-Polin drove tanks in the 7th Armored Brigade and later trained to become a medic, his father said, adding that his son thought it was “more interesting than driving a trank.”

The West breeds the most naive of children and the more “education” they get the more naive they become to the real brutality of the world.
Sad. I wish those who indoctrinated them could also endure the consequences, but they remain safely ensconced in the ivory towers those they hate have made possible.
Despite this truth, parents in the West continue to pay large sums of money to turn their children over to these idiots. The bitter irony of this “make peace through music party” will be lost on most people.
Devastating
A Berkeley, CA native. In the Army?
It’s unclear which Army they meant but American Jews can serve in the IDF.
The Hamas flag is flying over DNC HQ today.
The family has lived in Israel since the guy was seven.
7th Armored Brigade is well known IDF unit.
He’s American for our news, he’s Israeli Jewish for their news.
Not US Army, dual citizenship.
The media want us to get involved in this.
“The media want us to get involved in this.”
We are involved.

It’s up to 600 dead and 1500 wounded in Israel.
You know what I mean.
victims of the rave for peace... liberals getting what they deserve for their stupidity.
There but for the Grace of God, I was pretty naive in my 20s as well.
It’s important not to blame these victims. There is nothing wrong with going to concerts.
And you know what I mean. We funded these savages.

The US did not recognize dual nationality prior to 1967.
It is still the case that when you are in the country of which you are a dual national, the US applies a “location first” policy - if you are a Greek with dual US-Greek nationality, and you are in Greece, the US recognizes you as a Greek national first.
I don’t know how many people have dual US-Israeli nationality, but I bet it’s a big number. When they are in Israel, their safety and any military obligations are Israel’s business - not ours.
Are we allowed to remember that here?
Asking for a friend…
I was in a public university in NY in 1972, and there were more US citizen IDF officers than US Army, Navy, or Marines.
A lot more.
