Other than murdering three defenseless boys HYD, Hamas has accomplished less than nothing: Hamas wanted to trade out youth for their terrorists in Israeli jails - instead Israel has arrested over 400 Hamas members, including some who were released for Gilad Shalit. Hamas wanted to weaken and divide the Israeli public - instead our nation united in prayer and now in mourning. By remaining silent, Hamas wanted the uncertainty of our boys fate to torment us for months - instead our boys will be buried, respectfully, today, allowing their families mournful closure. Hamas wanted the Arab public to rejoice at their craven power games - instead the Arabs of Hebron have been under curfew for weeks and at least for now remain so, Hamas institutions have been destroyed or shut down and the IDF is straining to remove its gloves. And the cowardly murderers themselves will hide like vermin in the shadows, hunted, for what remains of their (hopefully short) evil lives. As Rabbi Jonathan Sacks wrote yesterday, The verdict of history is that cultures that worship death, die, while those that sanctify life, live on. That is why Judaism survives while the great empires that sought its destruction were themselves destroyed.” Rabbi Steinsaltz, dean of the boys Yeshiva, is quoted as saying, “Our boys were killed al Kiddush Hashem, because they were Jews. Therefore, to best honor their memories – indeed, to confront evil –we must act always as proud Jews, in our deeds and through our lives.”
