The holiday of Yom Kippur is widely accepted as the most important - TopicsExpress



          

The holiday of Yom Kippur is widely accepted as the most important holiday on the Jewish calendar. On this day, we are requested to repent for all our wrongdoings during the previous year and resolve to not commit that transgression in the future. At the forefront of wrongs we need to right is the ongoing mainstream Jewish support for the Israeli colonisation of Palestine, and its continued occupation of the West Bank and Gaza. This is being done in our name, and we have not done enough to stop it. It is for this reason that we believe that Gaza is the most urgent issue for us to reflect on this Yom Kippur. We will be going out and physically fasting and raising money for those in Gaza who have suffered unconscionable horrors.
